  1. Ion Dissonance - Minus The Herd review Minus the Herd represents a new direction and sound for the band... ...the changes aren’t just from a vocal perspective; as the chaotic elements of Ion Dissonance’s metalcore/mathcore sound has been toned down to make way for a groovier and more accessible feel throughout.
