Disturbed just released a new album, “Divisive,” making the band’s first studio effort in four years. The band has released a handful of videos/lyric videos for the record including “Don’t Tell Me, which features legendary Heart vocalist Ann Wilson. 

Frontman David Draiman recently spoke with Andy Hall of Laser 103.3 and hinted at Disturbed’s future touring schedule, which doesn’t seem to indicate as many shows as some might think. 

Hall asked Draiman if the band will hit the road as hard as they can to support the new record. Draiman replied: “Not as hard as you would imagine. We’re planning on starting up in the spring. We’ve already announced a few shows here and there. We’re trying to finalize all of our plans.”

”But Disturbed performances will be getting more and more infrequent. We’ll start up in the spring. We’ll finish in the fall. There will be a full U.S. run. Exactly when we’re going where, I don’t know yet; it’s still a moving target.”

“I know we’re planning to do a European festival run as well; a couple of those dates have been announced already. But it’s tough to navigate the waters right now. So we’re doing the best we can. Hopefully we’ll be able to announce more as soon as it’s able to be announced.”

Disturbed formed in 1994 and has sold more than 17 million records worldwide. The band took a hiatus in 2011 as band members focused on side projects before returning in 2015.
