On Thursday, multi-Platinum rock band Disturbed announced their 34-date “The Sickness 25th Anniversary Tour,” which includes a stop at KeyBank Center in Buffalo on April 4, 2025. 

The tour, produced by Live Nation, 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 presale beginning at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 15. Fans have the ability to preregister for presale tickets at https://disturbed.live/. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead, including a KeyBank Center presale beginning at 10 a.m. Oct. 17 The general on-sale starts at 10 a.m. Friday, Oct. 18, at disturbed1.com/tour. Dates in the U.K. and 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 Billboard 200, 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.”

More about Disturbed

Emerging out of Chicago at the turn of the century with an insidious, infectious and inimitable vision without comparison, Disturbed have quietly dominated hard rock on their own terms. They make the kind of music that pushes you to hold on tighter, fight harder, and persevere forever. It’s why they’ve claimed a place at the forefront of 21st century rock with record-breaking success, sales of over 17 million-plus units, nearly 8 billion streams, and sold out shows around the globe. The band have six RIAA album certifications, and singles from all eight albums have reached the top 10 of the Mainstream Rock chart.

The two-time Grammy Award-nominated quartet have notched five consecutive No. 1 debuts on the Billboard Top 200 for “Believe,” “Ten Thousand Fists,” “Indestructible” and “Asylum,” occupying rarified air alongside Metallica – the only other hard rock group to accomplish this feat. Since their influential debut  in 2000, they have built a bulletproof catalog highlighted by a procession of smashes, including the Platinum “Stupify,” “Inside The Fire” and “Land of Confusion,” two-times-Platinum “Stricken,” six-times-Platinum “Down With The Sickness” and seven-times-Platinum “The Sound of Silence,” to name a few. The latter notably received a Grammy Award nomination in the category of Best Rock Performance, as the band earned Best Rock Artist at the 2017 iHeartRadioMusic Awards. Still, Disturbed never stop, and their most recent 2022 album, “Divisive,” featured their 17th No. 1 at Rock Radio, “Hey You,” plus “Unstoppable.”
