Disturbed’s David Draiman has called out artists at the 2026 Grammy Awards for not voicing support for protesters fighting against the Islamic Republic in Iran. The singer, who remains controversial due to his support for Israel amid their war in Gaza, says he “was disappointed that not a single person decided to say anything about what’s happening in Iran.”
Draiman said the following:
“Good morning, everyone.
I was disappointed, to say the least, after watching the GRAMMY Awards last night — and there were many great moments and many great performances.
I was disappointed that not a single person decided to say anything about what’s happening in Iran, about the Iran massacre. About the fact that tens of thousands of innocent people have been slaughtered, shot after their protests in hospital beds, hunted down, mercilessly, repressed.
You are supposed to be against repression. You are supposed to be for freedom. You are supposed to be for human rights, right? Well, the Iranian people deserve your compassion. They deserve your concern. They deserve your focus, and you gave them none of it, and it’s embarrassing for all of you. I’m not arguing against your respective causes, I’m not even voicing my opinion on them. Everyone’s entitled to a voice. Everyone’s entitled to an opinion. But why? Why wasn’t there a single voice on behalf of the Iranian people? Well, they wouldn’t speak for you. I will.

KISS’ music video for “I Was Made for Lovin’ You” has surpassed one billion views on YouTube. That track appears on the band’s 1979 album “Dynasty.” The group commented on the milestone:
“The numbers speak for themselves. This one still dominates. IWMFLY baby!!”
Heathen have signed with Napalm Records. With this news, the band have also shared a new video for their cover of Laughing Dead’s “Never A God.” That band was fronted by David White in the early ’90s.
The group commented:
“We’re very proud to announce that Heathen has officially signed with Napalm Records! Joining forces with a team who shares our vision, our drive, and our passion for metal music. This marks the beginning of a new chapter for the band. We’re fired up for what’s coming and can’t wait to complete work on the new Heathen album!
We’re going to start this new partnership with Napalm Records off with a bang and give you something new to listen to while we continue to work on the new Heathen album. With that in mind, we recorded a couple of classic Bay Area thrash tracks originally written by other bands that we played with in the early 1990s. The demo collectors out there may have heard these songs before, but they’ll be new to most of you. The first single is ‘Never A God’, originally recorded in demo form (with David White on vocals) by Laughing Dead. So, new record label, new music, new video, 12” maxi-single pre-order, and a tour with Coroner in North America starting tomorrow. LFG!”
