Production
and themes
In a July 2009 interview with FaceCulture, Disturbed's
frontman David
Draiman talked about the upcoming fifth album: "A couple of
them [song riffs] that Danny has come up with are really amazing.
But they're just little pieces...it's not even in two-three part
progression [yet]."[1] Draiman
also commented on the direction of the album, "This record is going
to be as dark, if not darker, than Indestructible. I
want them [other band members] to throw at me...once again, the
darkest, most brutal, most poly rhythmic, most driving, most
aggressive stuff they can."
In another interview with Mike Wengren and John Moyer, it was stated that, judging by
Draiman's feelings on the last few years of his life, that the
album will be aggressive, angry, and "hard-hitting", but will be
similar musically to their album Believe.[2]
Song-writing for the album began in late 2009.[3]
On January 14, 2010, Disturbed's guitarist Dan Donegan told
The Pulse of Radio that the band has around 15 to 18 songs
for the new album, but Draiman has to finalize some of the lyrics.
Donegan also commented on the new songs, "You know, we're excited
about [the] new songs, and to get in there [the studio] and kind of
lay down these ideas."[4]
Promotion
In March 2010, the band will relaunch their official website
with a special section that will contain exclusive clips, updated
weekly, of the band recording the fifth album. The code will be
included with the reissue of The Sickness album, which will also
be released in March, celebrating the album's tenth
anniversary.[5]
