Disturbed The Guy Backpack
Disturbed's mascot has been seen in the music video for "Land of Confusion" and has appeared on the covers of two of their albums, Ten Thousand Fists and Indestructible.
He has been referred to by lead singer David Draiman as "The Guy" and was originally just a drawing of a face with a large grin, as seen on the back of the The Sickness album and later in the music video for "Stupify".
After being just a drawing, The Guy has become a mascot, fully animated by Spawn creator Todd McFarlane.
Disturbed headlined Ozzfest 2006 along with Ozzy Osbourne, System of a Down, Lacuna Coil, DragonForce, Avenged Sevenfold, and Hatebreed.
The band also went on the European tour that had been previously moved twice earlier in 2006.
Draiman became involved in the music file sharing controversy by publicly speaking out against the RIAA's lawsuits against file sharing individuals, despite the fact his record label is a member of the RIAA.
"This is not rocket science. Instead of spending all this money litigating against kids who are the people they're trying to sell things to in the first place, they have to learn how to effectively use the Internet. For the artists, my ass...I didn't ask them to protect me, and I don't want their protection."
