Disciple is a Christian metal band hailing from Knoxville, Tennessee. The band has released seven albums.

History

Disciple was formed in 1992 by high-school friends Kevin Young, Brad Noah, and Tim Barrett. The band released their first CD, What Was I Thinking? in 1996. It didn't get a hit single, but it got the attention of Warner Resound.

In 1997, they released the five-song EP, My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy. They started gathering a solid fan base, and in 1999 they were signed by Rugged Records and released their second full-length album, This Might Sting a Little. This album garnered them their first hit single with "I Just Know".

In 2000, the band released their third album titled By God which went on to win the Inspirational Life Award in 2001. In the



meantime, they had six number one hits, and four Dove Award nominations.

After some problems with Rugged Records, they went on and started their own label: Slain Records. In 2003, they released Back Again.

Their self-titled 2005 album featured "Into Black", the their biggest hit single yet, and has been classified by the band as their first progressive project (without the 11 min. epics of '80s prog metal bands).
