Disturbed’s debut album “The Sickness” is a great album front to back, Draiman’s vocals sound great on this release, the instrumentation hits hard as expected from this band, and overall just a fantastic contribution from all 4 members. Notable tracks include “Down With The Sickness” and their cover of Tears For Fears’ “Shout 2000”, with my hidden gem being “Meaning of Life”
