14-10-2024
DISTURBED has announced the 34-date “The Sickness 25th Anniversary Tour”, which will kick off in Nampa, Idaho on February 25, 2025 and is produced by Live Nation. The tour celebrates 25 years of DISTURBED‘s seminal debut album which launched the band into public consciousness and is one of the most important and influential heavy metal albums of all time. Each night will feature two sets of music, opening with DISTURBED playing the five times platinum “The Sickness” in full, followed by a full set of greatest hits. The first half of the tour will feature support from special guests THREE DAYS GRACE, featuring the return of original singer Adam Gontier, and opener SEVENDUST, and the second half will feature special guests DAUGHTRY with opener NOTHING MORE.
Tickets and VIP will be available starting with an artist pre-sale beginning Tuesday, October 15 at 10 a.m. local time. Fans have the ability to pre-register for pre-sale tickets at disturbed.live. Additional pre-sales will run throughout the week ahead of the general on-sale starting Friday, October 18 at 10 a.m. local time at disturbed1.com/tour. Dates in Europe will be announced soon.
Since “The Sickness” was released in 2000, the album was certified five times platinum by the RIAA, spent a total of 106 weeks on the US Billboard 200 chart, and Revolver named it one of “Top 25 Debut Hard Rock Albums.” Billboard said of the title track upon release: “‘Down With The Sickness’ is, of course, the quintessential DISTURBED song, harnessing all the band’s seethe and its now-famous tribal beat and guitar chug into three and a half minutes of alt-metal mayhem. It’s menacing, it’s rhythmic, it’s rebellious.”
