Members of Disturbed, Evans Blue and Ra have joined forces to create a new band, Flight or Fight

For a few months now, Disturbed frontman David Draiman has kept busy with his new side band, Device, while Disturbed bass player John Moyer has been tapped to work with Adrenaline Mob. Now, the rest of the members of Disturbed have their own band to keep them busy until Disturbed’s indefinite hiatus comes to an end.

Disturbed guitarist Dan Donegan and drummer Mike Wengren have dropped the news that they’ve put together a new side band named Flight or Fight. As for the sound of the new band, it’s heavy, but with a lot of melody. “This is more hard rock,” Donegan said in an official a statement. “It’s got edgy moments, but there’s more melody across the board. We had the chance to experiment as well. There are acoustic guitars and some electronics even.”

Flight or Fight features Donegan, Wengren, Evan’s Blue singer Dan Chandler, former Ra bass player Sean Corcoran and guitarist Jeremy Jayson.

Flight or Fight’s debut full-length, “A Life by Design?,” is slated to drop on July 23. Fans won’t have to wait until July to hear a taste of Flight or Fight, though, as the band is sending their debut single, “First of the Last,” to rock radio on May 21.
