UMUR "Submit" is the 2nd full-length studio album by Danish death metal act Illdisposed. The album was released through Progress Records in 1995. "Submit" was preceeded by the 1994 "Return From Tomorrow" EP, which bridges the gap between "Submit" and the band´s debut full-length studio album "Four Depressive Seasons (1993)".

Stylistically the music on "Submit" continues and further builds on the groove oriented death metal style that Illdisposed also played on "Return From Tomorrow (1994)". They´ve incorporated even more brutal grooves in their music on this release though, and already this early on in their career it was a trademark of their sound. The vocals are predominantly über distorted and almost completely unintelligible growling, but there are sections with more intelligible aggressive growling vocals on the album too. The band´s trademark wacky humour is also heard a couple of times during the playing time, but it doesn´t distract one bit from the fact that "Submit" is one hell of a brutal and groovy death metal release with a suiting mean attitude.

The material on the 9 track, 38:04 minutes long album are relatively varied within the boundaries of the genre. The music predominantly features brutal mid-paced grooves, but there are faster paced parts and even a couple of more epic moments on the album too. Illdisposed can be really brutal, but there are also melodic sections with atmospheric keyboards and some very nice melodic guitar solos in the music. Even a section with clean vocals has sneaked in. The sound production is professional, pretty well sounding, raw, and brutal. It suits the music perfectly.

"Submit" is one of the standout albums in Illdisposed by now huge discography and it´s also one of their more varied releases that retain the brutality of their early recordings, but expand on that sound with melody and atmosphere. The unintelligible and processed nature of Bo Summer´s growling vocals will probably always be an obstacle to my ears, but objectively seen "Submit" is a great death metal release from a band with a signature sound, which is a rarity on the scene. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
