[edit] About
After plying around the music circuits of Chicago, amassing a cult following in the process, the heady metal band Disturbed released two demo tapes, one accused of being a fluke, the next made to prove those rumors wrong. The demos caught the attention of several music indutry players and in March of 2000, Disturbed signed up with Giant Records to release their debut album, The Sickness.
