Disturbed say their upcoming album Immortalized will be worth the wait.
The band announced the end of their four-year hiatus last week and will release their first album since 2010’s Asylum on August 21.
Guitarist Dan Donegan says: “I think the fans will feel like it was worth the wait. We’ve been planning this for the past year and keeping it a secret so we can’t wait to hear the response.
“I hope fans realise we have a lot more left in us. This album reassured me of that. To be away from it for almost five years, get back in a room, write together, and tap into that fire is awesome. Part of me didn’t want to leave the studio.
“We still have a lot more to say – we still have a lot more to do. We’re returning stronger than ever. I think Immortalized shows that.”
Frontman David Draiman reports they’ve chosen to make their comeback as they feel fans are now ready to hear new material from the band.
He adds: “The idea was to leave when we were at our peak, which we were, and to come back when we felt reinvigorated.
“Everything was strategic. We wanted to give ourselves a chance to breathe, give the fans a chance to breathe, and give the culture a chance to evolve. Now is the time. The environment feels ready. The musical landscape feels ready. We’re ready.”
Immortalized is now available to pre-order.
Earlier this week Draiman quit Twitter after taking issue with people constantly trolling him over his pro-Israeli comments.
