DISTURBED To Perform On 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'

January 5, 2009

Chicago heavy rockers DISTURBED will be the featured musical guests on ABC-TV's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on the Wednesday, January 28 episode (which will actually air the morning of January 29 beginning at 12:05 a.m.).

DISTURBED scored its second No. 1 single on the BDS/Billboard Active Rock chart last year with the title track from its current album, the nearly platinum "Indestructible".

The CD's lead-off single, "Inside the Fire", set a record for the longest-running No. 1 in the history of the Active Rock chart when it spent 16 weeks in the top slot. DISTURBED is also riding high with its first-ever Grammy Award nomination in the "Best Hard Rock Performance" category for "Inside the Fire".

The self-produced "Indestructible" debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart in June and remained in the Top 10 for five weeks. It is the band's third consecutive No. 1 album, following its platinum-sellers "Believe" (2002) and "Ten Thousand Fists" (2005),making DISTURBED one of only six rock bands in history to score three consecutive No. 1 debuts with studio albums.

Formed in Chicago in 1996, DISTURBED has sold a collective 10 million albums worldwide.

DISTURBED recently announced plans for a winter U.S. tour that will begin in mid-January and serve as a warm-up for the band's more extensive Music As A Weapon trek in the spring.

The fourth edition of Music As A Weapon will kick off in March with KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH joining the headliners.
