Its called context. I am using disdain in the context of a sentence right now. See answer 1.

nope, the word disdain is improperly used in your example sentence. disdain is a feeling towards a person, not an inanimate object like a band. so you can't have disdain for a band. you only can have disdain for the people that form the band. understand? so you can word your sentence like how the first answerer did. or here's an example sentence: I disdain the singers of this particular band because they are so conceited. maybe you can think up a sentence similar to the above :D gd luck :)
