Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The mayor of Vorst, Belgium, has officially banned an upcoming Disturbed concert, citing public safety concerns stemming from frontman David Draiman’s outspoken support for the Israeli army – namely that one picture where he’s signing missiles that’ll kill people shortly thereafter.
Disturbed was scheduled to play Vorst Nationaal on Wednesday, October 15, but the plug has now been pulled following a police order issued by Mayor Charles Spapens (PS) according to De Standaard.
sigh they made cool music…
I feel so justified for never liking their music.
Past tense is important.
They made maybe one or two decent albums in the 90s, and then faded into obscurity.
“Decent” is also a matter of taste.
They were very angsty when angsty music was popular. Now they’re just old guys trying to hard to connect with a scene that is far too young for their music to be relevant for.
It barely mattered when it was released, but looking at everything else that was released in the 90s in similar genres, there was a lot of anger and angst that those Gen Xers were expressing that resonated with the early millennials, myself included.
OO AH AH AH AH
The coolest.
Stepped on a lego?
TOOL - The Grudge
Mentioning Tool in a thread about Disturbed feels sacrilegious.
Unforgettable, iconic and so impactful.
