[edit] More Edits

Changed some stuff in the B-Sides section: "God of the Mind" is not available on MOL; "Loading the Gun" was changed to "Loading the Weapon," the appropriate name, and changed from Live Metallica Cover to Live Instrumental... Dan 23:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

New edits: Changed some stuff in the b-side section; A Welcome Burden only live on MOL; Perfect Insanity video on MOL. Dan 19:40, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
More; I reworded/added some stuff in the third paragraph. Dan 00:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
NEW: I got rid of the "Fade To Black - Live" under the B-Sides section. It was not released in studio, and (as a previous person mentioned when he edited it) is not a b-side. Dan 03:47, 20 February 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Chart positions

I have noticed that the chart positions are often modified by new users or unregistered users. I do not know if it is vandalism, but I recommend that those positions be checked by a viable source (it shouldn't be too hard to find) in order to prevent what could be vandalism.

Hope this might help the article be better!

Still the same. I suggest removing them. Sourcing this would be overkill, and the info seems irrelevant. Any objections? If not, i will remove them in a couple of days. (Or you can do it Zouave if you want :D). - - 'twsx'talk'cont' 16:56, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
All done. - - 'twsx'talk'cont' 21:39, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rising EP

What are the sources for The Rising EP. I Haven't found it anywhere, I suspect this is a rumor at best and misinformation at worst. 69.112.90.243

i have heard nothing about this and i know that awhile ago i had to edit out rumors about an EP. maybe this was added by the same person who added the original "new EP" info?65.43.214.242 10:20, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
i just googled it and the only places online talking about it refer to wikipedia as the source for said information. i've removed the info for the time being as all of the song titles sound to juvenile to be disturbed songs, and if it were to be a sneak peak of their new material, would it really be coming out in December of this year? if they've already headed into the studio, i highly doubt it would take them a full year to have any material ready for a "preview" EP.65.43.214.242 10:30, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, good call. Unverified info doesn't belong on wikipedia. 69.112.90.243 03:34, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
You misunderstood what that said; it said The Rising EP was a sneak peak of their upcoming album, which would be released in December. That means that the actual album will be released in December, whereas the EP was apparently already released. I did not add that information, by the way, I just wanted to clear that up.Dan 15:23, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
um... ok... that doesn't change the fact that said EP does not exist. and regardless of my understanding of it, don't you think that december is a long way off for an album that they're recording now? i understand what you are saying, but i was merely stating one of many reasons that i thought that the info was BS. i think you are the person who added the info, you just don't want to admit to it... j/k but srsly, who cares?68.255.174.138 16:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Nowhere did I say that the EP exists, I was just clearing that up, as I stated. I agree that if they started working on this record at the end of 2006, then it wouldn't take them a year, however; I'm guessing a September release date (I believe the last two albums were released in September).

[edit] Edits about break up.

Just removed a couple of edits saying disturbed broke up yesterday. Since neither vh1 nor RS has anything about it, this seems to be nonsense. Of course i could be wrong, so if i am, just revert my edit and please write here where you got the info. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 01:03, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Genre

Nu metal? How can Disturbed be considered nu metal? Nu metal differentiates from other metal by incorporating rapping and an electronic/techno sound, like Linkin Park or Slipknot. Disturbed doesn't have either element... They are in absolutely no way nu metal... Just because some people think Disturbed is a bunch of posers or whatever, and that they think nu metal is a bunch of posers too, doesn't mean that they can classify Disturbed as nu metal. What's next? "Oh, well, I think the beatles are nu metal now cuz I don't like them." That's essentially the only argument to classify Disturbed as nu metal.Drew Nutter 03:40, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Well said, I agree. Unfortunately the "genre police" here is very narrowminded and strict lol so you won't have much luck getting through. Dan 03:45, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
Disturbed was nu metal more than everything else in the first, and partially in the later two albums. This has been discussed widely, check the archives. ~ | twsx | talkcont | 12:54, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Many people, including myself, still consider Disturbed nu metal. Other nu metal bands like System of a Down do not use turntables or rapping, but they still are nu metal. Rockdetector proves this pretty well. Plus, Disturbed has the same fanbase as most nu metal bands. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 17:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Doom Metal?

Why is Disturbed listed of the "List of Doom Metal Bands"? DemonOfTheFall27 20:12, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing that up... I fixed that... Disturbed are nothing like doom metal... Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 21:07, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sigh

I am tried of people coming onto wiki and just cuz' they THINK that a band is one genre instead another changing stuff and all of the sudden people are having an edit war and then the article suffers. so please just leave disturbed at Nu Metal for an example look at the guns n' roses talk. thank you.GuyDoe 22:46, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

The matter of the genre has been discussed thoroughly and the edit war is over for quite some time. What exactly is your concern? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 10:00, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] article improvments

First it helps to have the albums placed under a main heading ex. albums with three ='s then put the sickness-believe-ten thousand fists. under each put all the info that applys to the album. after albums put band members that would be the place to put fuzzes leaving. then b-sides and covers. other than that i have no other ideas. i'm not telling you guys what to do i'm just suggesting. we could get to be good article.GuyDoe 23:06, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Uh... what? Dan 23:48, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
I agree with Dan. Dude... wait, what? ~ | twsx | talkcont | 09:59, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
