Formed in Cleveland, OH, Disengage has been creating social/political music while balacing on the tightrope between rock/hardcore/punk. With poetic lyrics and strong song structure they manage to bring out the beauty, disgust, joy, and pain that is our society. With their latest release, "Application for an Afterlife", they've brought together a collection of songs that speak with relevance, purity and truth, but most of all they flat out rock.
