Fuzz Quits Disturbed

Disturbed's Bass player Fuzz has quit the band. Here are two messages from management about it:

The management would like to confirm that Disturbed and Fuzz have parted ways. The band has yet to start the process of finding a replacement. They are currently in the studio writing new material for their upcoming third record and the process is going very well. Projections for the release of the third record are fall of 2004 or spring 2005. The Music As A Weapon DVD/CD has a tentative release date of Feb. 4th, 2004. The final touches are being put on that project as we speak. The band is also hoping to organize a charity softball game and live performance in Chicago sometime in the spring with all of the proceeds being donated to a local female cancer research foundation. More details on that will be available after the new year. The band appreciates the contributions Fuzz had made to the band and they wish him the best in any and all future projects.

All apologies accepted and I will offer one in return for any confusion I may have created. As far as the exact reasons why Disturbed and Fuzz have parted ways, as well as whos decision it was and why the decision was made, I hope everyone can appreciate that all 4 parties involved would like to keep that information confidential. I would like to encourage all of you to try and respect the bands privacy on this issue, and to continue showing the amazing amount of support you all have to this point, not only towards Disturbed's future, but to Fuzz's as well.
