There are at least 5 bands/artists that have recorded under the name of 'Disease'. 1. A Latvian metal band formed in 1996 by Pavel Stepanov. 2. An Italian underground metal band. 3. A Canadian artist from Toronto, Shayan Mannan, who makes electronica and hip-hop. 4. A Macedonian D-beat Raw Punk band 5. Grindcore band from Seattle, WA. 1) The "Disease" band was formed in 1996. The original idea belonged to Piton (Pavel Stepanov), but he decided to invite two more people, who would play bass and drums. The way of playing that was chosen at that time was punk-rock. Playing punk-rock was a temporally chosen style, because musicians had permanently been growing up in technique and manner of playing and were eager to impress thereselves in more serious music. Therefore the band’s further tendency was doom metal, sympho-black metal. Since those times the stuff of band was changed for several times, but the founder – Pavel Stepanov – continued to realize his decision – to create the music. The real “coming-to be” for the newly conceived band became 2001, when the stuff stabilized and “Disease” took part in the first remarkable festival in Daugavpils, Latvia (band’s native town) - “Chemical reaction”, in which the first place was gained, what, in it’s order, gave the great possibility to pretend in participation in another noticeable show – “Liepājas Dzintars Festival”. But the summer of 2001 wasn’t absolutely successful – the band found itself out of leaders. In 2002 inspite of unlucky last time “Disease” participated in the “Liepajas dzintars” festival and gaind the prize “The best drummer’2002”. After this event the band was invited to take part in the other festival – “Bildes” (www.bildes.lv), that assembles the pop and rock musicians from the whole of Latvia. “Disease” presented itself in the duet with Ieva Akurātere, one of the famous singers of the Latvian music scene. In 2003 “Disease” was invited to perform its creation within the festival “Sinepes un Medus” (www.sinepes.times.lv), and the result of performance was the first place. In 2004 the band was invited as the guests to take part in this festival. For the time of the band existence there were released 3 albums and 2 demos. In 2006 summer Disease was invited to perform on huge metal and rock festival "Union of Rock" in Wegorzewo, Poland. The latest album "I Stay Here" (2006) was highly estimated by russian metal magazine "Dark City" with a mark 8/10, and it was reviewed by Slovakian metal webzine "Speed of Light" (http://metal.w3.sk/) with a mark 7.5/10.
