What doesn?t kill you makes you stronger. Drowning Pool"s tale of perseverance is just as inspiring as their music.
The all-American anthemic rock band has persevered through the death of their first singer and losing their second, emerging a stronger unit than ever before. From presenting the Lane Evans Health Act to Barack Obama, while senator, and coming back with their first consecutive album with a singer, vocalist Ryan McCombs, Drowning Pool continue to survive. After their biggest single ever, "37 Stitches" and four years of nonstop touring, which culminated with 2009"s Crüe Fest 2, the Dallas quartet are set to release their fourth full-length album, Drowning Pool (Due out April 2010 on Eleven Seven Music).
The album is a statement on various levels. It"s a statement that Drowning Pool can write anything?from fist-pumping arena rock songs such as "Feel Like I Do" and "Let the Sin Begin" to the introspective acoustic haze of "Alcohol Blind" and the pensive pain of "Turns So Cold." It"s a statement that this band is airtight musically, with the combination of Ryan McCombs"s roar, C.J. Pierce"s fret fireworks, Stevie Benton"s thundering bass lines and Mike Luce"s propulsive percussive palette. It"s a statement that Drowning Pool won"t stop, coming back with the fourth album of their decade-long career after withstanding the tragic death of original vocalist Dave Williams and parting with his replacement. Most importantly, it"s a statement that Drowning Pool"s music will be here forever.
