    Though I had heard about Junker Jörg as they had been touring with Disciple, I had never heard any of their music. Diet Of Worms was their 2000 debut. The thirteen song album shows a band that plays groovy metal. Though I don't fancy this kind of metal very much as it bores me often too easily, there are probably a lot of people who do like it. The recording is quite alright, and the instruments are played in a decent way (especially the bassist does a fine job). You can hear rap-like vocals, clean vocals and some screams. Listening to Diet Of Worms I only liked the songs that are somehow different. Songs like Autibionic (with guitar solo), Dunamis and Lamentation (finally a song with some uptempo stuff...). Muscled rock music for who cares about it.
