The band started their journey in 2009, when the composer and keyboardist Yoav Efron met the drummer Yogev Gabay and the two started working together.
By 2011 they were joined by Misha Soukhinin (Vocals), Guy Landau (Guitars) and Iggy ‘Jalapeno’ Cohen (Bass). The music was first written in 2006, when Yoav composed the first title “Utopia” (which will later be the title for their debut album) and
during the following years the other titles in the album were composed.
The lyrics were written last by Misha with the help of Yoav and Guy (Blue) and outside friends.
Their debut album (“Utopia”) was digitally released on May 14th, 2012, and was available as a free download. In just a short period of time it has won the audience’s recognition and respect, both in the Local and International scene.
Distorted Harmony works to establish itself as Israel’s leading progressive metal band and aspires to be recognized as one of the leading international bands in Prog / Metal and other musical scenes.

Distorted Harmony Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Promise i won't mind, i'm used to your deception
Tell me lies, for i might come to realise
I am just a pawn, in your own twisted logic
I am the wave, I am the wave
Coming your way, Coming your way
Listen to me, Listen to me
Coming your way, Coming your way
Listen to me, Listen to me
Drowning in vain in a sea of sorrow
Lying awake in a field of horror
Rehearsing our lines making sure we follow
Our own lines like we're told
Make me hollow
A part of something
Sell me a laugh sell me a smile
Take my blood it's yours
Forever
Follow me, i'll be your guide in darkness
We'll be free of lies fake smiles and misdirections
Follow me, i'll paint your world in colour
For you're no longer blind
In truth we'll hide each other
I am the wave, I am the wave
Coming your way, Coming your way
Listen to me, Listen to me
I am the wave, I am the wave
Coming your way, Coming your way
Listen to me, Listen to me
Drowning in vain in a sea of sorrow
Lying awake in a field of horror
Rehearsing our lines making sure we follow
Our own lines like we're told
We're drowning in vain
Drowning in vain
Make me hollow
A part of something
Sell me a laugh
Sell me a smile
Keep my blood it's yours
Forever
The lyrics to Distorted Harmony’s song “Hollow” explore themes of deception and the idea that the singer is a pawn in someone else’s twisted logic. The song begins with the singer asking to be lied to, as they are already used to the deception. They fear the realization that they are just a pawn in someone else’s game. The chorus repeats the phrase “I am the wave” to represent the singer’s power and influence, but also their potential to crash and fall at any moment.
The second verse depicts the singer drowning in sorrow and horror, while simultaneously rehearsing lines to follow in their life. They are seeking to be hollow and a part of something else, willing to trade their own blood to belong. The singer then invites someone to follow them, to be free from lies and misdirection, and promises to paint their world in color. They indicate that together they can hide in truth from the deceptions of the world.
