DISTURBED: New Song 'Never Again' Available For Streaming

A brand new DISTURBED track entitled "Never Again" is available for streaming using the audio player below. DISTURBED frontman David Draiman, who comes from an Orthodox Jewish family and has 200 relatives living in Israel, including his brother and grandmother, wrote the song about the Holocaust. He explained, "Both of my grandparents on my mother's side were survivors of the camps . . . I've got other relatives who are survivors, and my entire mother's side of the family, save my grandmother and grandfather and a couple of their siblings, were completely wiped out. So I felt it was important to write about it because I realized that the last generation of survivors is about to be lost."

"Never Again" will appear on the band's new "Asylum" album, due out August 31.

As previously reported, Draiman had strong words for rock musicians who collect Nazi memorabilia in a new interview with Revolver magazine. When asked about artists such as MOTÖRHEAD frontman Lemmy Kilmister and SLAYER guitarist Jeff Hanneman who collect Nazi artifacts, Draiman said, "That's super-duper taboo and offensive to me. I don't understand the fascination. It's the most provocative imagery that you can brandish, and that's why people utilize it. And if that's their goal, I guess they're achieving it."

When told that Kilmister, who has been known to wear Iron Crosses and hats from the German air force, defends himself by saying he's just collecting artifacts of war history, Draiman replied, "I don't give a fuck who you are. If you're going to brandish Nazi symbolism, I'm going to have a problem with you because I don't understand how anybody could think it's OK to wear something on their body that symbolizes the annihilation and genocide of my people. I'm not OK with that and there is no excuse and there is no explanation."
