The First CD I bought Was?
The first cd I bought was Disturbed, Indestructible. I bought it in like 2010. I got a ride to Walmart after making a little bit of money doing side jobs. This cd was bought at Walmart. I think I paid like 10$ or a little less. But it was brand new. I remember putting in my computer. The desktop was old, let it rip the cd. Then I started listening to the cd and helped me become a bigger fan of the band. I was amazed at the sound of the band. The cd was a great listen to. I still like Disturbed till this day, but this cd and the sickness hooked me into liking Disturbed. The album is definitely a great listen to. The songs I like the most are the night, Perfect Insanity, and the title track, Indestructible. It has a great rocking feel and really great songs that are able to be listen to more than once. I would say this album is one of my favorites by Disturbed.
Do I still Listen to Disturbed?
I got into Disturbed late 2009 into early 2010. For a year or two this was my favorite band. I still listen to at times but I kind of lost interest after the album, Immortalized, which I bought that cd, and haven't really cared for the last album or two but still listen to the older stuff. I do have the sickness remastered, believe, indestructible, and immortalized on cd. I also have Disturbed Indestructible in Germany live. I used to have Disturbed meaning of life on dvd but sold it a couple years ago. But because of how much I listened to them between 2010-2013, I think I don't listen to them as much as I used and became a little burned out so only listen to them every now and then. Kind of the same with Metallica. But, as I got older, I got into other genres, like thrash metal or some hardcore metal like biohazard and pro-pain. Also, some sludge like crowbar and black label society. I still like Disturbed, but my favorite band has changed through the years. See top 5 blogs to see who my favorite band is now. But with this band I still like them and think Disturbed is a great band even though I like more of the older stuff of their catalog of music.
Do I Still Buy CDS?
I haven't bought a cd in a couple of years. But like you saw in my YouTube video, do I buy CDs or download CDs, I show you both of what I have in a short like one minute video. I did buy a couple CDs in 2010 then got into downloading music from 2010 to spring of 2016. I haven tons of stuff on blank cds. Then in the spring of 2016, I got into buying CDS. I wanted to support bands instead of downloading music for free. The first couple CDS I bought were Megadeth United Abominations, and Cold year of the spider. I have bought about 500 CDs between 2016 to 2020. I have Disturbed Indestructible, Believe, Immortalized, and the sickness 10th anniversary which I bought in like 2010. I stopped buying as much on CDs to save money and cut back on expenses. So, I haven't bought a cd in about 3 years. I might get back into buying CDs again. But I do listen to music through YouTube and Pandora. I still buy T-shirts from time to time. But haven't bought a cd in a couple of years to save money to pays bills and support my online business.
Closing Thoughts
So that’s the story of my first CD, how I got hooked on Disturbed, and why their music still stays in my rotation today. I’ve built up a solid CD collection over the years, even if my collecting slowed down. David’s vocals? Still unmatched.

What Does Metallica Load and Reload Mean to Me?
Both albums were not the most popular of Metallica discography. Both have their highs and lows. I get it for the ones that checked out.

Ranking Metallica Bass Players
In this post, I will rank all the bass players members of Metallica from Ron Mcgovney to Cliff Burton to Jason Newsted to Rob Trujillo. All 4 are great in their own way but only one can be number one. I will also say what all gave to Metallica as a whole. Jason was like a second frontman. Cliff held Metallica well together. Rob does good but does feel more like a bass player, and Ron wasn't in the band that long, but for what he offered wasn't bad as a bass player. All 4 had their periods and I break down what all 4 meant to me for their periods as members of Metallica.
