BURBANK, CA. (Reprise Records)--Multi-platinum hard-rock band Disturbed have set a record for the longest running Number One track in the history of Mediabase's Active Rock chart with 'Inside the Fire,' the lead-off single from their gold-certified album Indestructible. The track was Number One for 14 weeks at Active Rock Radio and also Number One on the BDS/Billboard Active Rock Radio chart for 15 weeks. 'Inside the Fire,' which was released digitally on March 25th, is Disturbed's sixth Number One single at Active Rock, and the band's fastest-rising chart-topper to date. The band's previous Number One Active Rock singles are 'Down With The Sickness,' 'Prayer,' 'Liberate,' 'Stricken,' and 'Land of Confusion.' The second single from Indestructible, the title track, hits radio this week. Certified gold by the R.I.A.A., the self-produced Indestructible debuted at Number One on Billboard's Top 200 album chart and remained in the Top 10 for five weeks and is still in the Top 20 after its June 3rd release. Indestructible is the band's third consecutive Number One album, following their platinum-sellers Believe (2002) and Ten Thousand Fists (2005), making Disturbed one of only six rock bands in history to score three consecutive Number One debuts with studio albums. Disturbed's 2000 debut album, The Sickness, has been certified triple-platinum by the R.I.A.A. with sales closing in on four million. Formed in Chicago in 1996, Disturbed have sold a collective 10 million albums worldwide. Disturbed is currently on the road co-headlining this summer's Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival Tour through August 19th, before heading overseas to tour Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Europe through the end of the October.
