Drowning Pool is a nu metal/alternative metal band from Dallas, Texas formed in 1997 that rose to prominence while playing along with Ozzy Osbourne during Ozzfest. Their 2001 debut album, Sinner, was certified platinum within six months and the video for its first single "Bodies" was frequently aired on various music video channels. After the September 11th attacks the song "Bodies" was infrequently heard on many radio stations due to the sensitivity of those families' loved ones who jumped from the towers. In August 2002 the lead singer of the band, Dave Williams, died in his tour bus of heart failure.

After Williams' death, the band decided to carry on and began searching for a new singer.

In 2003, the band found a new singer in Jason Jones who took place of Dave Williams in the wake of his untimely death. They released the album Desensitized in 2004.

DROWNING POOL Sinner

Sinner is the debut album by alternative metal band Drowning Pool.

The thing I like about Drowning Pool is how they take the sounds of such bands like Sick Puppies, Mudvayne, and Godsmack and mash them into this badass sound. Sometimes, this is very hard for a band to do correctly, and Drowning Pool did it 100% right. Or at least it was good enough for them to spawn 4 more studio albums, and 1 hit live album.

Although this album paved the way for DP's popular albums, it still has a slight blandness to it. A lot of the songs are kind of repetitive, and rarely change. Not to say that it degrades the album in any way, but it does slightly diminish the album's quality.

This is a nice piece of alt metal that I would encourage anyone to pick up if they see it.
