Disciple was formed in 1992 by friends Kevin Young, Brad Noah, Tim Barrett, and Adrian DiTommasi (who would leave the band shortly after inception) in an attempt to spread the gospel while playing the loud, metallic music they loved. Over the years, their style evolved into one similar to many secular alternative metal groups, as they toured churches, high schools, colleges, and similar venues. Their self-released debut, What Was I Thinking, came out in 1995, followed by an EP, My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy, on Warner Resound in 1997. Their sophomore full-length effort, This Might Sting a Little Bit, followed two years later on Rugged Records. By God followed in 2001 on the same label.
2003's Back Again found the band on a new label, their own independent Slain Records. That year, the trio became a quartet with the addition of bassist Joey Fife to their lineup. The group signed with INO Records the following year and released a self-titled LP in June of 2005. Scars Remain arrived on Integrity in late 2006. After years of nominations, the album won the band their first Dove Award for Rock Album of the Year.
In 2008, Noah and Fife stepped down from the band and their spots were filled by bassist Israel Beachy and guitarists Andrew Welch and Micah Sannan. Southern Hospitality arrived later that year. Before their next release, founding drummer Tim Barrett would also part ways with Disciple, replaced by Trent Reiff. Horseshoes & Hand Grenades, Disciple's eighth LP, came out in April 2010. It topped the Christian chart and entered the Billboard Top 50. As the band's popularity grew, they embarked on a handful of tours with other top Christian acts like Thousand Foot Krutch and Skillet.
2012 saw the release of O God Save Us All, as well as a flurry of lineup changes. After four years with Disciple, Welch left the band to join Thousand Foot Krutch, while Sannan and Beachy were replaced by Josiah Prince (Philmont) and Jason Wilkes (High Flight Society). By early 2013, Reiff exited and was replaced by Joey West. Andrew Stanton also joined the band, leaving Young as the only original member.
The refreshed quintet forged ahead with the crowdfunded release of 2014's Attack, which became their highest Billboard 200 entry to date, peaking at number 44. Produced by longtime Disciple producer Travis Wyrick, Attack also rose to the number two spots on the Hard Rock and Christian charts. It would be the first and last album with Wilkes on bass, who left the band the next year. Vultures, a six-song EP recorded during the Attack sessions, was released at the end of 2015. Another EP, Live in Denmark, arrived the following year, accompanied by a series of concert videos from Denmark's RiverFest.
The band -- now a quartet -- issued another crowdfunded effort in 2016. Their 11th album, Long Live the Rebels, debuted at number 125, making it the group's sixth Billboard 200 entry to date. After signing with the Tooth & Nail label at the end of 2018, Disciple released their 12th full-length, Love Letter Kill Shot, in September 2019.

Disciple Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can hear you breathing silently next to me
It's like you take away my past, all my problems

The lyrics of Disciple's "I Feel You" speak to the idea that sometimes it takes moments of madness or chaos to truly see things clearly. The society we live in may claim to offer freedom and fulfillment, but often crushes our desires and makes us dependent on strangers to lead us to where we want to be. The leaders we have chosen may speak in a language that nobody understands, leaving us feeling confused and disconnected.
Yet despite all of this, there is a fire within us that cannot be extinguished. This fire is our destiny unrealized, and it has been burning inside us all along. The truth is stronger than any thunder or lightning, and we must hold on to it tightly. The song acknowledges that waking up and realizing that we have been manipulated our whole lives is difficult, but it is necessary if we want to move forward.
The final lines of the song urge us to hold each other close and face the hard questions that need to be answered. We cannot wait any longer to do so, because the war - whether internal or external - is not far away.
Overall, "I Feel You" is a call to arms for anyone who has ever felt lost, confused, or manipulated. It encourages us to look within ourselves for the fire burning inside and to hold on to the truth in the midst of chaos and confusion.
Line by Line Meaning
Sometimes in moments of madness
Occasionally, moments of insanity offer the best clarity
Is the only time we clearly see
It is only during such moments that we obtain true perception
In a society that crushes desire
In a culture that suppresses wishful thinking
While telling us we've been set free
While simultaneously claiming we have achieved liberation
And the leaders we have chosen
Furthermore, the authorities we have elected
Speak a language no one understands
Use a speech that nobody comprehends
We've been depending on the kindness of strangers
We have placed our faith in unfamiliar supporters
To lead us to the promised land
To guide us to the land of milk and honey
Ain't no thunder - lightning
There is no natural disaster more forceful
Stronger baby than the truth
than the powerful and invincible truth
Can't you feel the fire - burning
Is it not evident to you, the burning flame of motivation?
It's your destiny unrealized
Your undiscovered fate lies within this flame
Can't you feel the fire - burning
Can you not sense the fervor within?
It's been inside you all the time
It has rested within you all along
I felt good I felt connected
I felt elated, I felt linked to something larger than myself
I never thought about it twice
I did not consider it deeply
Ain't it hard to wake up and discover
Is it not difficult to come to terms with
You've been manipulated your whole life
The fact that you have been deceived your entire existence
Hold me a little closer
Hug me a little tighter
The war ain't so far away
The battle is not as distant as we presume
There's hard questions that will have to be answered
There are difficult queries that will demand responses
We ain't waiting to ask them one more day
We are not delaying the inquiry any longer
