The album 'Disharmonization' arose from the collaboration of Carbonized founder Lars Rosenberg, guitarist Mathias Lodmalm, and the drummer Robert Pehrsson. This was the band's third studio album and was released on Relapse Records. Unlike their previous albums, this one featured a more unique and diverse sound due to the infusion of experimental music that was new to the band's sound. The album was hailed as a masterpiece and received praise from fans and music critics.

The album is described as an experimental death metal that fuses heavy metal, grindcore, and progressive metal. Throughout the album, Carbonized explores different rhythms and tempos and incorporates guest musicians that add an additional dimension to the music. The vocals provided by Lars Rosenberg are deep and guttural, adding to the overall dark and aggressive ambiance of the album.

The standout tracks on 'Disharmonization' are Deranged Brains, Euthanasia, and Purified by Death. These songs showcase the dynamic range of Carbonized's music and style due to the exceptional drumming, guitar work, and vocals. However, The instrumental track Hypnotic Aim was the most innovative part of the album, with its experimental sound and jazz-like structure.

Despite its initial praise upon release, 'Disharmonization' received a mixed critical response over time. The album's experimental sections found praise over the years, but some critics felt that the songwriting could have been sharper in certain sections, and the album could have flowed better as a whole.

In conclusion, 'Disharmonization' is an album that not only offers something unique but also showcases the versatility and growth of Carbonized's sound and direction. The album's experimental parts are the standout elements, but the album as a whole is an excellent representation of the band's style. Although some critics may have their reservations about it, overall this album is an essential addition to any death metal fan's collection.
