Disturbed
Biography
The legendary rock band Disturbed was formed in the middle of nineties in Chicago. Initially the group was called Brawl, and the vocal parts were performed by Erich Awalt; however he left the band soon after the demo was recorded. Then Dan, Steve Kmak (former Disturbed bassist) and Mike placed an advertisement in order to find the new singer. Soon they met David and the musicians felt that it would be very comfortable to work together. They began writing the fresh material and their new band was called Disturbed.
The debut long play The Sickness was released in 2000 and it greatly impressed both fans of heavy music and the musical experts. That record brought the world fame to Disturbed and soon The Sickness was certified Fourfold Platinum. Of course after such a bright debut the fans had been waiting for the rockers’ following studio attempt. Two years later the quartet issued their second album titled Believe (2002). After that release it was obvious that Disturbed managed to record another strong long play, and they really had plenty of new ideas and were to keep on rocking.
The musicians’ discography was enlarged by the live album Music As A Weapon II, which preserved the energy and the incredible atmosphere of Disturbed concerts. Also the listeners got a very nice bonus: the rockers recorded the cover-version of Metallica’s Fade To Black. The band’s third album Ten Thousand Fists was released in 2005. By that time the line-up was changed: Steve Kmak quitted Disturbed and his place was taken by John Moyer, who became a true part of the band in no time. Ten Thousand Fists debuted at the very top of Billboard 200 which proved its highest level and numerous rock lovers’ interest in Disturbed creativity.
The fourth studio attempt titled Indestructible, which included the world-known hit Inside The Fire appeared in 2008 and pretty soon it was certified Platinum. The band’s fans did not have to wait for the following work for a long time: the fifth album Asylum was released in 2010. That strong reInside The Firecord, created in the quartet’s best traditions, got excellent reviews from the critics. That time the musicians presented their interpretation of I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For by the famous U2, and the song definitely got the new sound. There is no doubt that Asylum will be enjoyed both by the band’s old fans and by all the good heavy music lovers.
