Down with the Sickness was released in 2000 as a single from Disturbed's debut album The Sickness and became the American metal band's signature song. Its staccato rhythm, drop-tuned guitar and David Draiman's distinctive vocal delivery made it a staple of rock radio, sports arenas and movie soundtracks. Karaoke and instrumental versions spread online for singers wanting to perform the track themselves, and short backing clips are now shared on soundboards for entrances, edits and practice sessions where the heavy riff is instantly recognisable.

The karaoke backing clip of Down with the Sickness by Disturbed, featuring the heavy guitar riff and drum beat used in rock covers and singing practice.
This clip is the karaoke backing for Down with the Sickness, the signature Disturbed track built around a pounding kick drum, chugging distorted guitar and an aggressive tribal rhythm. Without the lead vocal, the empty verses leave space for a singer to deliver the shouted lines and guttural exclamations themselves, while the instrumental still carries all the menace and momentum of the original. Played on its own it feels instantly tense and confrontational, turning a normal introduction or entrance into something heavy, defiant and unmistakably nu metal in character.
