On that date David Draiman was hired by musicians Mike Wengren, Steve “Fuzz” Kmak and Dan Donega to be the group's singer. The band since their formation has sold more than 11 million worldwide albums, to make them one of the highest grossing rock bands in recent times. Disturbed has released five studio sets. The last four of their albums have debuted consecutively in the No. 1 spot on Billboard's 200 chart.
