YMMV / Illdisposed

Go To

  • I Am the Band: While singer Bo Summer is technically this, guitarist Jakob Batton is the only member to consistently give interviews and insight into the band's songwriting.
  • Narm: The band's name is pretty hard to take seriously when you find out that the definition of the word "ill-disposed" is "unfriendly and unsympathetic", coming off as too petty and Wangst-ridden for a death metal group and far more akin to a Nu Metal band.
  • Never Live It Down: While rarely if ever mentioned in the English-speaking death metal fandom, Bo's tenure with White Pride, a football hooliganism group infamous for their prejudiced ideologies, from the late 90s until 2001, is this. Although the other members have confirmed that Bo has distanced himself from his past views and regrets his involvement, as well as no accounts from those who know him outing him as genuinely hateful existing, this fact continues to tarnish the band's reputation in their native Denmark to this day, with Batten claiming as late as 2021 that people still frequently message promoters trying to get them off concert lineups.
  • Signature Song: "Dark", thanks to its appearance on the Saw soundtrack.
