Track Description
Available in:
The American rock band Disturbed released a cover of the song on their third studio album, Ten Thousand Fists. The song became the fourth single from that album. Vocalist David Draiman commented that the aim of covering the song was, "taking a song that's absolutely nothing like us and making it our own." The line "And the sound of your laughter" in the original's bridge was replaced by "In the wake of this madness".
It was accompanied by a music video animated by Todd McFarlane, known for his work with the Spawn comic book series and the creator of Spider-Man Anti-Hero Venom. McFarlane had previously animated the music videos for the songs "Freak on a Leash" by Korn and "Do the Evolution" by Pearl Jam.[14] According to McFarlane, the music video is "a big view of the corporate world and how it all ties into just one big beast for me... The world is run by one giant thing, which is driven by greed and lust."[14] "Land of Confusion" reached number 1 in the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks, it is Disturbed's first number 1 single on that chart.
[edit]Music video
The video starts out with The Guy, Disturbed's mascot, falling to earth. It then shows military forces bearing the symbol of dollar sign[14] within a circle of white that is within a field of red, followed by legions of black-clad soldiers reminiscent of Adolf Hitler's Schutzstaffel (Protection Squad).[15] The video then shows The Guy, escaping bondage from chains, as the military forces continue to assault cities and civilians. Later on, leaders of various nations of the world (bearing close physical resemblance to the then respective national leaders) are shown sitting at a table with the same dollar sign on it. Eventually The Guy confronts the soldiers, and leads the people in rebellion. Flags of several powerful nations are then shown, with the final flag sporting the dollar sign. The Guy leads the rebels to the United Nations Headquarters[15] where they disrupt a meeting of the U.N. representatives. The Guy then leads the angry mob into a back room where they confront the real power behind the throne, a gigantic, bloated Fat Cat. The mob then drags him to the ground and once immobilized, The Guy destroys the Fat Cat, who explodes into a shower of dollar bills.
