Hey guys I know that it’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything because I’m still finding out all that I want to do for my blog, but you’re not here to hear about that, let’s get to the good stuff shall we?

The newest band that I’ve known about and listened to since i was just starting middle school, and most of you have probably heard about them already, but I wanted to talk about them anyway. They are called Drowning Pool. Coming from Dallas Texas, my hometown I might add, before relocating to New Orleans, Louisiana, and these guys have been playing music since their debut in the early 2000’s. They rose to fame in Dallas after the release of their second demo after two years on the road, which reached the top ten on the Dallas radio station KEGL, which later resulted in a contract signing with the Wind-Up Records label.

The release of their first album Sinner: Unlucky 13 became an instant hit, and within six weeks of its release it was certified platinum, while their first single, "Bodies" was one of the most frequently aired videos on MTV. They performed at many different events, reaching out to WWE Wrestlemania and Ozzfest, but their success streak was short lived. After playing for the crowed at Ozzfest in Indianapolis, Indiana, on August 3’rd, they found their vocalist dead from natural causes, and in January of 2004, the band announced the addition of  singer Jason Jones, and their sophomore effort “Desensitized” followed months after.

In 2006 the former “Soil” singer Ryan McCombs assumed the vocal duties, and a year later they released their “full Circle” album, which was followed by their “Loudest Common Denominator” album, in 2009. A self titled album dropped in 2010, making McCombs the very first Drowning pool singer to record more than one album with the group. However it didn’t last very long; he passed away the following year, and was replaced by “Suicide Hook” vocalist Jason moreno, who made his first debut in 2013’s “Resilience” album. Three years later, Moreno would match McCombs’ record with the release of the second Moreno-led, and overall sixth
Drowning Pool Album, “Hallelujah” produced by Jason Suecof, which featured the single "By The Blood"
