==History==
[[Image:Disciple.jpg|frame|right|Disciple]]
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]]. Even without a hit single, Disciple was able to gain the attention of Warner Resound who later produced Disciple's following release.
In [[1997]], Disciple released the five-song [[extended play|EP]], ''My Daddy Can Whip Your Daddy''. The band 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.''
In October [[2003]] Disciple added bassist Joey Fife. Fife's membership in the band has added a new dimension to Disciple's live performance.
Disciple signed with Christian rock label [[SRE Recordings]] and released their sixth recording, self-titled ''Disciple'' in 2005. This album featured "Into Black," their biggest hit single yet, and has been classified by the band as their first progressive project.
Their seventh full-length album, Scars Remain, was released on November 7, 2006. The song "Game On" from this album was used as the official theme song for [[WWE Cyber Sunday#2006|WWE Cyber Sunday 2006]].
