A nu-metal (generally pertaining to their first album, The Sickness)/hard rock (the latter albums, Believe and Ten Thousand Fists) band mostly known for their debut and its most popular single, "Down With The Sickness". Therefore, they are generally dismissed as an immature, typical nu-metal band. While The Sickness is decent, their follow-up, Believe, contains melodic and complex elements that more than surpass it. Their most recent album, Ten Thousand Fists, effectively combines the anger of The Sickness and the focused creativity of Believe. Most listeners do not realize this, of course.
Disturbed Fan: So, how about Disturbed?
Typical Radio Listener: Dude, aren't they the guys that scream like monkeys and bang on the drums?
Disturbed Fan: Then I take it you haven't heard anything released by them after 2000.
Heavy Metal band with David Draiman as their vocalist, Fuzz as their bass player, Dan Donegan at guitar, and Mike Wengren at drums. Known as the best band to grace the presence of Rap/Alternative Metal. One of the only bands some prepubescents would call satanic but if you actually listen to their lyrics, they are actually slightly religious. They can range from all out screaming (like in their infamous "child abuse" bit in "Down With the Sickness" not on radio version) to soothing (like in "Darkness")
My favorite band.....
Great nu-metal/hard rock band. They have some pretty awesome songs like Stupify, Ten Thousand Fists, and Prayer. They're pretty much nu-metal, but then bend some "rules" of nu-metal, so they're more like hard rock. Good band.
Ten thousand fists in the air! -part of Disturbed's song
