More about this title

About the Artist: Disturbed

Disturbed formed in Chicago in 1990 and became one of the defining voices of heavy metal in the 21st century. Known for their thunderous riffs, polyrhythmic complexity, and David Draiman's distinctive vocal delivery, the band has built a reputation for writing songs that demand precision and power from every player in the band, including the bass section.

Why we love this

The Game showcases the tight, driving bass work that anchors Disturbed's heavier material. TAB notation makes the intricate rhythmic figures accessible to players building their chops in contemporary metal styles.

What to expect

Muscular and unrelenting. The bass line moves with swagger and weight, anchoring each riff with aggressive precision. You'll feel the song's momentum shift through your fingers as the part navigates Disturbed's signature heavy grooves.

Who it's for

Bass players exploring contemporary metal repertoire and looking to develop their rhythmic accuracy and muting control. This TAB is especially valuable for students building proficiency with heavier styles and learning how bass drives the energy of modern hard rock compositions.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lock into the kick drum pattern early. The bass line tracks closely with the drum attack, so precision timing is essential to achieve the song's crushing impact.
  • Pay attention to muting techniques. Palm muting and string dampening create the articulation that defines this part's character.
  • Dial in a tight, focused tone on your amp. Metal bass parts live in the midrange; avoid too much low-end bloom that muddies the riff definition.

How to use it

Include this in a metal or contemporary music unit to show students how bass functions as a structural and tonal anchor in heavy styles. It pairs well with other modern metal repertoire and demonstrates the technical demands of the genre.

Skills your students will build
