DISTURBED To Team Up With 'Massive' Co-Headliner For 'Music As A Weapon' Tour

September 24, 2010

On September 22, vocalist David Draiman of Chicago heavy rockers DISTURBED was interviewed on Santa Rosa, California's 101.7 The Fox radio station inside the "Less Is More Lounge" at the Sacramento stop of the Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar tour. Watch the eight-minute chat below.

When asked about DISTURBED's future touring plans, Draiman said, "We'll be doing two legs of Music As A Weapon after the New Year with a lineup that I cannot yet reveal. But just know that the what I should say is the co-headliner for the tour is massive. And it's going to be appearing in a union that I think hard rock and heavy metal fans have been wanting to happen for awhile. It has happened before, but only in brief stints. Now it's gonna happen for the duration of a two-leg-long tour. And we're gonna join forces with a leviathan. And we're really looking forward to it."

DISTURBED's new album, "Asylum", sold 179,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart.

The band's previous three albums — 2008's platinum "Indestructible" (first-week sales: 253,000),2005's double-platinum "Ten Thousand Fists" (first-week sales: 238,000) and 2002's platinum "Believe" (first-week sales: 284,000) — also debuted at No. 1.

DISTURBED's best-selling release to date is its 2000 debut, "The Sickness", which has shifted more than four million copies in the U.S. alone, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

"Asylum" arrived in stores on August 31 in both standard and limited editions.

All editions of the album come with an one-hour documentary in either DVD or digital format called "Decade Of Disturbed".
