dave's head looks like an egg. no, scratch that, it looks like a lopsided omelet.
anyone know how to fix this? 69.14.56.149 (talk) 15:37, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
Um, yeah... that picture of David is really bizarre! Surely there's a better picture of him out there that is in the public domain than can be used. I personally don't know of any.
Just wondering... Beretta89 (talk) 22:09, 31 March 2010 (UTC) .
Are the animal-like shouts he does his own trademark or just something that happens in a few songs? I'm not trying to make fun, listen to Violence Fetish on the sickness album, and Down with the sickness on the same album. Jackpot Den 18:42, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
Not really, he does them occasionally. More one the albums The Sickness and Believe. I don't think they're in Ten Thousand Fists. While it is something he's good at and very few can do as well as him, probably not very notable. Senner 22:24, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
What animal cries are you talking about? Are you speaking of the opening "scream" for Down With the Sickness, and others like it? Those are present on Ten Thousand Fists as well. Pookythegreat 23:47, 20 May 2006
I assume you're referring to his growls, howls, shouts, and "screams", They are less prevalent in Believe, though they are more prevalent in Ten Thousand Fists, and most so in The Sickness, no one else really does it/is able to do it with his depth and power vocally, it's a rather peculiar trademark to have, but it makes him easily recognizable vocally.--Revrant 21:03, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
I wouldn't say that it's exactly a rare talent, but the consistent use in Disturbed's music makes it somewhat of a motif for the band. I recommend adding something about these sounds (I assume you mean those "oo-ah-ah-ah!" and "uh!" things) because it's often what listeners notice first about his vocals. Radical25 04:22, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Hey, Draiman has an awesome singing voice, and yes you can recognize his voice anywhere, which makes his music all the better. Firio (talk) 02:25, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
If u guys are talking about the "a-WA-A-A-AH!" thing, I would definitely call that a signature vocal style he has —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thhhh (talk • contribs) 16:36, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
The "animal noise" referred to "A-WA-A-A-AH!" is based off an Australian bird call (Kookaburra) he heard while traveling through the botanical gardens in Queensland before the sickness album was released, later mimicked into a vocal roar first heard in single "Down with the Sickness". [source] It's origin is mentioned in the "Disturbed M.O.L." DvD 11:58, 08 August 2018 (AEST)
Removed "One of David's little known best performances was at his brother Ben's wedding in Jerusalem." - This is pure speculation. -- ×××jijin+machina | Chat Me!××× -- 13:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)does anyone know if draiman ever went to jail because on youtube there's a video with him wearing an orange suit if you go there put in DISTURBED the game
This video? So what, he is just wearing an orange suit. He was never in prison. It is just a live (and awesome at that) performance/ Ok thanks for telling me that man.
David has a brother Ben who lives with his wife in Jerusalem.
Hmmm... How is that relevant? I personally don't think it should be included, otherwise we would have to post the relationship status and location of his mother, father, sisters (if he has some), cousins, aunts and uncles, etc. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 07:04, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I removed the reference to Ben Draiman being a guest of Off the Wall... what does that have to do with this article about his brother?! On top of that, it wasn't sourced. If you add something to an article, please source it.
If all this stuff about Ben were relevant, maybe Ben should have his own Wiki page. Just a thought.
Beretta89 (talk) 23:37, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
I removed "2010" from the "years active" entry, because Draiman is still active. A previous "edit", which was removed, stated he died Oct. 14, 2010, but the info box was not updated to reflect that the incorrect info had been removed. Per the band's website, Disturbed is still touring in Europe starting mid November, 2010. Beretta89 (talk) 17:27, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
There is a whole new section to this article entitled "Audition", which was lifted in its entirety, minus citations, from the Wiki "Disturbed" article. Of course, there are no additional citations to this section on this page. I'd remove the entire section, but I'm not sure how to go about it. It's completely irrelevent to this article on Draiman because it's already in the article about the band. SOURCES, people! Cite your source(s) if you ADD ANYTHING TO THIS OR ANY OTHER ARTICLE!

David is the only member of Disturbed that is currently single, and he has no qualms with admitting his homosexuality- I am removing the part about him being homosexual because I have never ever heard about that. Unless someone gives a quality source, it should stay removed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by DevilsAlwaysCry (talk • contribs) 22:26, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
"He was also as a young boy beat by his own mother and that in a way inspired his song down by the sickness"
Not only is this sentence poorly constructed, but it could be considered hearsay because I've never seen anything where David refers to being abused as a child. It may have happened for all we know, but if there is no proof of such, it should be removed.
To the person who made this edit, can you provide proof and cite it? If so, please reference it. If not, remove it.

hey that website has the same text as the article! was that text written before or after the text in the article? cuz it could be a violation of copyright! or it could just be a website that copied the biography from the article, heheh... Goodtones 14:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
ok the article seems to be the original one, so there is no violation of copyright, but there is proof that this website doesn't mean anything, since its text is taken from the wikipedia article Goodtones 14:28, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, i just fixed the draiman´s article and removed the "homosexuality" part, ok?
It seems like a reasonable source (I just checked and Disturbed did have an interview with Metal Edge magazine in November 2005). I have fixed the capitals that you took time to fix and reverted the vandalism. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 10:10, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
I think the article should be restored in the version that Goodtones put up. I'll let Goodtones do that. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 12:31, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Well there aren't any more sources on the rest of the article. This statement is actually more sourced than the rest of the article. I agree to leave it, Raidentheninja does too, and I'm assuming Goodtones does as well. It cannot hurt the article; Goodtones seems to be correct since Disturbed did have an interview with Metal Edge magazine on November, 2005. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 19:12, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
I think you should remember to assume good faith. Don't you think that if someone had come to vandalise the article they would've simply edited and not let anyone know on the talk page? I think you are taking this too personally. I had heard of this interview before, but since I live in a country that does not permit me to read such magazines and that Metal Edge does not publish on internet, I had never read it (until I did on this talk page). Plus, I say that if his homosexuality must be censored from the article because homophobic people might think less of him, I say we should also censor the fact that he is of Jewish ancestry because anti-Semitic people might not like him anymore. It is the same kind of logic! Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 20:40, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
Okay, although I wasn't able to find the interview, I have found a forum who published part of the interview. Now I think this is sufficient evidence for the comment to be added in the article (otherwise there is definitely something personal about this). See here. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 18:58, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
I think that it is proof that Goodtones is not making this up. Anyways, the whole article doesn't have a single source, so why should there be extremely reliable sources for this statement? Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me! • O)))) 21:05, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
I did not read any sources stating that he was heterosexual either! I actually read more stuff saying he was gay than stuff saying he wasn't. What points against the info's authenticity? I am in no way trying to convince you that he is gay, but I am trying to improve the article and include information that I think are important. Now on the other side, you seem to refuse the fact that he is gay and simply take this as a personal threat. There is nothing bad in being gay (at least in my opinion).

David Draiman is well known for accepting and participating in the groupie lifestyle. If you just check out the episode of the MTV Cribs where they do his house, you could see him making several references about that, like about the mirrors on the ceiling in his bedroom, in the shower, and a bunch females in the pond outside. Check it out. I think that qualifies as HETEROsexual. If he's open about his alleged homosexuality, I've never heard about it anywhere.
Лёха Фурсов: Sacrublood 17:05, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
ok, why did it just do that?
Лёха Фурсов: Sacrublood 17:07, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, I spent over an hour watching the M.O.L. DVD yesterday afternoon and there was many instances of David being sexual with females. I'm confident this would prove the homosexual claim to be false.
Well this is just disgraceful, what an arbitrary attack, we have two people who openly hate Disturbed and, at any opportunity, seek to slander them and rob them of any notability in even obscure articles, but now we're sinking to the level of calling the singer a homosexual, stating quite plainly, that there is no evidence to the contrary.
You know, I'm getting right sick of this slandering, I might just have to watchdog Disturbed articles in the future, this is just to inform the specific parties that I will be bringing a Wikipedia administrator into the fold if I see any more of these veiled attempts at slander for the sake of their own elitism.

http://www.socom2hoc.com/otherstuff/disturbedfansite/disturbed_fansite.swf
If you click on the bio link, David mentions that he is "flagrantly anti-war but passionately pro-military." Of course, I did read something like this in the official Disturbed website, but I think they changed the website months ago so I don't think their main website mentions any about this. I'm going to see if I can find a better link other than a fansite to confirm this, since I don't think wikipedia use fansites as reliable sources. Because one of my friends mentioned he is pro military and anti-war.
Anyways, if anyone can go google on david draiman or disturbed, please find a better source than what I found.--Dark paladin x (talk) 21:53, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

I think he is pro war, particularly against Hezbollah, being from israel. He is anti-bush though so thats a little fuzzy.

I have to say their latest video "Inside the Fire" it is the best song I have heard in a long time. I love the cut verison it shows how senstive David really is! He is a great muscian and I would love to meet him in person. Who woulda thought he wanted to be a Rabbi once. David You freaking rock!

The types of schools that Draiman attended were changed from "yeshiva" to "yesj" recently. I'm not Jewish, so I don't know if the change is legitimate or not. If anyone should know, or if this is vandalism, please say so here. Again, there are no sources describing the change, so please cite sources if you change anything in this article.
Beretta89 (talk) 19:43, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Issue one: What exactly do those two subjects have in common, besides the fact that the nightmares inspired David to write Inside the Fire? I think we might want to separate them.
Issue two: The whole story of David's girlfriend's suicide is entirely too.. story-like. It's not really serious and takes a tone that forcibly reminded me of a fourth-grader's attempts to make his story as interesting as possible by adding phrases like "Little did he know" and "He then realized the error of his ways". I didn't want to revamp the whole (rather long) paragraph without alerting everyone else to it first, but something needs to be done. As it is, the end of the article seems rather childish. Sparkstarthunderhawk (talk) 20:56, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
"He then realized the error of his ways, and went cold turkey." What the HELL do you think you are at putting this line in? What a load of RUBBISH. That is not encyclopedic at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.19.37.128 (talk) 17:30, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
I definitely agree, that doesn't fit in with wiki's format at all. That whole paragraph sounds like a story, not an article in an encyclopedia. Mfischer92 (talk) 17:42, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Has someone actually seen a copy of Draiman's birth certificate, therefore necessitating the change in his birthdate? Everywhere I've seen it referenced on the web, it states that he was born on 13 March 1973, but now someone has edited it to read 12 March 1973. So which is it?
I'm not going to change it back, because 1) I'm not sure how, and 2) I don't know the man so I can't ask to see a copy of his certificate of birth.
Just wondered is all. I'm new to all this editing stuff...
--Thanks! Beretta89
Beretta89 (talk) 23:03, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
I see that someone changed David's date of birth back to 13 March 1973 in the main article, but not in the "personal background" box. I changed it to match the date of birth notated in the main article.
Of course, if someone should come upon information that contradicts these changes, please feel free to change it. Maybe we should just be happy that the month and the year are correct.
Beretta89 (talk) 22:01, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
I see that someone has changed Draiman's birthdate back to 12 March 1973. To whomever made this edit, please cite where you got your information from. In everything I have ever read about him online and in various publications, either he states, or it is stated on his behalf that his date of birth is 13 March 1973. I am changing it back. Once again, if you add or change something to this or any other article on Wikipedia, please cite your sources! Otherwise, it's hearsay and therefore is not accurate. Beretta89 (talk) 02:42, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
The birthday info was taken directly from this article on Wikipedia, so how could his father say so? The fact that it's there on his father's page doesn't mean anything. I seriously doubt Mr. Draiman designed that page himself. What would be even better is if that information was not a direct link from Wiki, but a direct quote from Mr. Draiman himself, just like the information about Ben is.
And why is information about David's father on here anyway? Thanks for citing the source, though. Beretta89 (talk) 02:28, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
An email from his father isn't necessary, but in checking out Mr. Draiman's webpage, I just found it odd that David's information came from this article. Why couldn't it be in his (or your) own words i.e. "David is the lead singer for the metal band Disturbed" and not use the information from this article at all. I'm sorry if you think I'm being nit-picky, but if university professors won't accept info found on Wikipedia, why should Mr. Draiman?

As per WP:BLPCAT, "Categories regarding religious beliefs and sexual orientation should not be used unless the subject has publicly self-identified with the belief or orientation in question; and the subject's beliefs or sexual orientation are relevant to their notable activities or public life, according to reliable published sources." Irrespective to how Jewish people stipulate their label should be applied, Draiman specifically notes that he is not religious. He is of Jewish ancestry, but that is not a religious view. By stating he is not religious, it can be assumed that he is a "non-observing Jew." The categories relating to the Jewish religion should not be re-added unless someone can find a source indicating the Draiman considers himself an observing Jew. TheFrozenFire (talk) 01:27, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
Attached is a link to David Draiman explicitly saying he does not believe in organized religion of any sort and practices none. He seems to express deistic beliefs but NO ATTACHMENT TO JUDAISM AS A RELIGION. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=yGiJfSQSBrc#t=296s I am an Israeli atheist, defined jewish by heritage and I understand what you're saying but it is still BS. Judaism has no claim over a man and wikipedia rules state that we may only write him as a part of Judaism if he says so. Therefore, I feel obligated to edit this. Also, the bit about a reporter in a newspaper in Israel referring to him as Jewish and explaining why he's Jewish seems to be shoehorning it in. Elayeek (talk) 21:05, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

The article now just seems to be saying he is jewish? Like , so what? What or why is that notable? The article is supposed to be about a singer but its more of some kind of genetic statement? Off2riorob (talk) 01:27, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Off2riorob—sources such as the two below confirm that Draiman is Jewish but not religious:
Livewire: "You're Jewish, correct?"
David: "Oh yeah."
Livewire: "Are you religious?"
David: "No, not at all."
Livewire: "Is there a viable presence of Jews in rock bands today?"
David: "You'd be surprised, man. There's more members of the tribe out there than you might think. You know Aaron Lewis is another member of the tribe, Mr. Brian Warner, Mr. Marilyn Manson are members of the tribe. There aren't too many Jewish metal frontmen though. (laughs loudly) It's all good."
"As previously reported, Draiman had strong words for rock musicians who collect Nazi memorabilia in a new interview with Revolver magazine. Draiman comes from an Orthodox Jewish family and has 200 relatives living in Israel, including his brother and grandmother. When asked about artists such as MOTÖRHEAD frontman Lemmy Kilmister and SLAYER guitarist Jeff Hanneman who collect Nazi artifacts, Draiman said, "That's super-duper taboo and offensive to me. I don't understand the fascination. It's the most provocative imagery that you can brandish, and that's why people utilize it. And if that's their goal, I guess they're achieving it."
"When told that Kilmister, who has been known to wear Iron Crosses and hats from the German air force, defends himself by saying he's just collecting artifacts of war history, Draiman replied, "I don't give a fuck who you are. If you're going to brandish Nazi symbolism, I'm going to have a problem with you because I don't understand how anybody could think it's OK to wear something on their body that symbolizes the annihilation and genocide of my people. I'm not OK with that and there is no excuse and there is no explanation."
"When asked by New York Waste about collecting Nazi artifacts and uniforms, Kilmister said, "From the beginning of time, the bad guys always had the best uniforms. Napoleon, the Confederates, the Nazis. They all had killer uniforms. I mean, the SS uniform is fucking brilliant! . . . Don't tell me I'm a Nazi 'cause I have uniforms. In 1967 I had my first black girlfriend and a lot more ever since then. I just don't understand racism, I never thought it was an option."
"Draiman wrote a song about the Holocaust called "Never Again" for the band's new "Asylum" album, due out August 31. He explained, "Both of my grandparents on my mother's side were survivors of the camps . . . I've got other relatives who are survivors, and my entire mother's side of the family, save my grandmother and grandfather and a couple of their siblings, were completely wiped out. So I felt it was important to write about it because I realized that the last generation of survivors is about to be lost."
You removed material saying that Draiman is Jewish though he is not religious. Perhaps you objected to the inclusion of the quote from an interview with Draiman. As at least a temporary solution to this impasse, I am suggesting that the quote be left out and that we simply put in the following sentence with the supporting citations:
Draiman is Jewish though not religious.
I hope you find this acceptable. Bus stop (talk) 23:02, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
This article has been expanded so as to move the weight that on reading you get the idea the he is a notable jew, he is a notable musician and not as I understand notable for his Jewishness? let me know if I am mistaken - the Jewish section is four times bigger than the music section? Off2riorob (talk) 19:03, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
continued from above (in the section entitled "???"), but it is getting lost, so, let's put it here:
beretta says that david draiman has asked that this personal info not be included on this page. any 'proof' of that? that is a big statement and hard to really know what to do with it. does anyone have any comments about this? (i am an active editor on over 200 pages and have never heard this before). for newcomers here, the three items in question are: david's brother ben (musician), david's father YJ (running for mayor of los angeles), and david's girlfriend/fiancee. Soosim (talk) 07:50, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
David has had a Twitter account (and it's verified) since about March of 2011, and he has said that he comes to this page on occasion to "correct" things about his personal life. He has stated that he and his father are not on speaking terms, that he removes the information about his father running for mayor of Los Angeles but it keeps reappearing. Apparently he, or someone he designates, has removed info about Lena Yada and their engagement/living/travel activities. Is that enough "proof" for you? Beretta89 (talk) 19:11, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
The personal life section has something that is very contradictory. It states that Draiman is Jewish then it says he is not religious. I'm not sure which information is correct. Anyone have any source of this? Is he non-religious or is he Jewish? --Jimv1983 (talk) 02:54, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
Just a minor change, I personally say Disturbed is a metal band and NOT a hard rock band, but I won't argue of that. However, shouldn't heavy metal at least be mentioned in his infobox? I'd add it myself, but I can't as it's protected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.192.36.134 (talk) 04:47, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

David Draiman has a remarkable voice and singing style and I am sure that he is not an amateur, but he must have had vocal & music studies. However, the article doesn't fill us in on this issue. It rather gives us boring informtion about his school years. 193.92.252.166 (talk) 15:42, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

There is an edit war. The users User:FMSky [[2]] and User:188.191.225.122 [[3]] tried to change the word "militant" to "terrorist" while the cited source gives no mention of "terrorist", only "militant", so there is an edit war. I reverted: [[4]]. The user User:FMSky then self-reverted [[5]]. Please be careful. Maxim Masiutin (talk) 22:36, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
