All My Friends Are In Bar Bands

It's been 15 years since Drowning Pool - primitively-heavy by design and southern by the grace of God - first let the bodies hit the proverbial floor. A myriad of changes have faced them and the world around them since then - the tragic loss of their original singer, the decline of their genre's movement - but the truth is that Drowning Pool have never gone anywhere. They've stuck to their guns defiantly as one of nu-metal's truest survivors - and, with a new lead singer at the helm, they've come to balance their past with their present in hopes to continue into the future. The band reccently undertook their first-ever headlining tour of Australia, and three (eventually all four) of its members convened backstage at Sydney's Manning Bar to regale us with stories of fuck-ups, finding themselves and bumping into The Undertaker at WrestleMania 18. Drowning Pool's latest album, Hellelujah, is out now. Digital: https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/hellelujah/id1056225886 Physical: http://www.fishpond.com.au/Music/H
