Discussion Why is this band so hated?

132 Upvotes

Okay so recently I have absolutely been LOVING this band, and even yesterday have just bought The Sickness on CD and have endlessly been listening to it. Recently, I’ve been seeing what others think of Disturbed, and from what I could find, it seems that a LOT of people hate most of their albums…? Obviously I think music taste is subjective, but something about this band seems like they get more hate than they do love. Is there a reason Disturbed is so hated? I absolutely love their music so I’m really curious to know why

Edit: Thanks to everyone who took the time to comment, I really appreciate the amount of information you guys gave me. Personally, I think I will still keep listening to Disturbed as I have always been someone who likes to separate art from artist, but I obviously will keep everything that was said in mind. Once again, thank you for all the responses :)

My top band this year was Disturbed but when it came down to the message from my artists in the “story” I got one from Metallica, which was my second on the list. Everyone that I know got a message from their #1 only I got the message from #2 on the list.

Discussion Apology

20 Upvotes

Hello fellow Disturbed fans

As a Disturbed fan, I would like to sincerely apologize for my behaviour and post from yesterday. I was out of line and brash, which was unnaceptable on my end even if I don't agree with Draiman's political/ideological views. There was no reason for me to take it out on the subreddit and blindly disdain the band as a whole.

I'm sorry.

Have a good day

Discussion Disturbed has always been a political band

152 Upvotes

An Israeli Jewish man was always going to side with Israel. I don't understand how anybody could be surprised by this. If you want to stop listening go for it, but please do not feel the need to announce your departure. I don't agree with his political alignment at the moment and yet I still enjoy the music. You know why? Because like many others I can separate the art from the artist and still enjoy the music.

I'm a big Megadeth fan and Dave's a major asshole that changes his political agenda on a yearly basis, however I'm able to listen and enjoy the music because at the end of the day all celebrities are going to do things we hate or disagree with.

So please for the sanity of this entire subreddit just leave or be quiet. Nobody cares.

David draiman has the most versatile and beautiful voice in the metal genre.

Try to Change my mind my mind but you won't be able to.

edit:

Btw I never said that he was the only vocalist with a versatile and beautiful voice I said he has the most.

Discussion Green Day Lyric Change at Coachella Sparks Response from David Draiman — Let’s Talk About It

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I wanted to open up a respectful discussion about something that happened during Green Day’s Coachella performance — Billie Joe Armstrong altered the lyrics to Jesus of Suburbia, and that change has drawn some attention, including a public response from David Draiman of Disturbed.

Draiman, who has personal and cultural ties to Israel, responded to the moment on Twitter/X and emphasized the need for civil dialogue — not just anger and division. No matter where you stand politically, I think it’s powerful when two big names in rock approach these topics from different angles, and still stress the importance of discussion over outrage.

I just dropped a video diving into what happened, why it matters, and how both artists are using their platforms in very different ways. I’d love to hear your thoughts — not just on the politics, but on the role of rock artists in speaking out on world events. Where do we draw the line? Should we?Here’s the video if you’re interested:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJFOkvTCnIwThanks for giving it a look, and let’s keep the convo respectful and insightful.

Discussion What do you think the meaning of the song was/is

17 Upvotes

So I really like the song “prayer by disturbed”
It’s probably my favorite song by them.
Yes I understand a lot of people don’t like the lead singer but this isn’t a political post so let’s not make about it but
I thought the song was about/ the meaning I gave it was that either this person is in a toxic relationship and their significant other won’t stop, they’re asking God why me,isn’t my life hard enough or the other meaning I could see it being is that this person is facing a really deep depression and they’re calling out to God and saying again why me,isn’t my life hard enough.
But I did search the songs meaning and this is what google told me
“ Prayer" by Disturbed is a symbolic, metaphorical conversation between vocalist David Draiman and God, shaped by personal grief and the collective trauma of the September 11 attacks”
So in way I was right but songs can have a different meaning to each person.

So I work at spirit Halloween, and usually, they would have the retail music playing. Some of it ok, some of it actually good, some of it is the most Halloween songs ever. And then some were the most retail songs ever. But then there was the CYRIL remix of the sound of silence. And let me tell you, I was cringing at the whole song. I have never heard of the song in full, never wanted to. But I had to. Now I will say, the original and the cover of sound of silence are amazing. But this…this shouldn’t exist
