Drowning Pool
Biography
Dallas-based heavy metal group Drowning Pool was one of the most promising bands of the early 2000s. Their debut album, Sinner, was certified platinum within six weeks of its release while their first single, "Bodies," was one of the most frequently aired videos on MTV by a new band. They reached out to an ever-greater audience with dynamic performances at Wrestlemania XVIII and Ozzfest during the summers of 2001 and 2002. Unfortunately, their streak of success was not to last. Shortly after rousing the crowd at Ozzfest in Indianapolis, IN, on August 3, 2002, vocalist Dave "Stage" Williams was found dead of natural causes on the tour bus.
Drowning Pool represented the vision of drummer Mike Luce and guitarist C.J. Pierce, who formed the band after relocating from New Orleans to Dallas and hooking up with bassist Stevie Benton. Although they initially performed as an instrumental trio, their sound coalesced with the arrival of Williams as vocalist. Drowning Pool experienced success from the outset. When a copy of their first demo reached members of Sevendust, they were invited to tour with the industrial metal group. Tours with Kittie and (hed) p.e. followed. Their second demo, recorded after two years on the road, reached the Top Ten on Dallas radio station KEGI and led to a contract with the Windup Records label.

I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins. Never did I wanna be here again, And I don't remember why I came. Candles raise my desire, Why I'm so far away. No more meaning to my life, No more reason to stay. Freezing, feeling, Breathe in, breathe in... I'm coming back again... I'm not the one who's so far away When I feel the snake bite enter my veins. Never did I wanna be here again, And I don't remember why I came. |

once they drop the card on you (which they easily do) you are put on the defense, you stop the dialouge or are stopped. But I suppose you are the intolerant one Schemes. Bad Schemes, no metal music for Schemes

Schemes: There is something you should know about grown ups in America. When they feel threatened by your comments, can not react to your comments or simply want to shut you up, there is a TRUMP card that can be pulled which will disable communicatio n and make them sleep better at night. Here are the cards
1) Call you a racist 2) Call you a sexist 3) Call you a homophobe 4) call you an intolerant person 5) Call you a religious kook (only if you are of the Christian type though) |

I can't tell if it's Obama or not, but the suit tells me it's not Kanye West.
Actually, his head looks too big for Obama. Obama has a skinny head with big ears. |
||
Thats not obama idiots. Think before you speak. I have come here from my busy as heck day, I mean, I play in a black metal band and I know this is not Obama. In fact, do not even type O.B.A.M.A because secret sehrvis is going to be tuning in and they are always after my lucky charms and my black metal lyrics. Check out my band if you need to see what I am teaching to little kids across Amerikkka
|
||
Sure, let the bodies hit the f**king floor!
It's Drowning pool or GTFO! |
||
I like the Sinner album. Bodies, and All Over Me are good songs.
|
||
if you go to napster (the one you download on your computer) and then go to the home thing of Drowning Pool, you can see a picture of the band with Barack Obama. Cool
|
||
Willow you make me laugh so bad!
|
||
