Bio:
Drowning Pool is an American rock band formed in Dallas, Texas, in 1996.The band was named after the 1975 film The Drowning Pool.Since its formation, the band has consisted of guitarist C.J. Pierce, drummer Mike Luce and bassist Stevie Benton, as well as a revolving cast of vocalists.Drowning Pool turned the world into believers with their breakthrough single "Bodies" in 2001.Ten years and four albums later, they gave fans a new reason to believe."Feel Like I Do," the lead single from their self-titled fourth studio release [Eleven Seven Music, 2010], became the band's biggest radio hit to date, reaching No. 2 at Active Rock Radio, and remaining in the Top 5 for 12-weeks. With 2009's "37 Stitches" off of Full Circle reaching #4 at Active Rock and "Feel Like I Do," the band had 2 consecutive Top 5 Active Rock smashes and cemented their place as one of the top hard rock acts today.The band's sophomore album, Desensitized with second singer Jason Jones spawned a Top 10 hit with "Step Up." Recent successes have paved the way for unique opportunities such as presenting the Lane Evans Mental Health Care Reform to then-senator Barack Obama on Capitol Hill, performing for our troops all over the world and partnering with organizations like The Wounded Warrior Project and the G.I. Film Festival.In an exclusive interview in the September 2012 issue of Guitar World magazine, Drowning Pool announced that fellow Texan Jasen Moreno is their new lead singer. The band's fifth album and their first with Moreno is due out early 2013. The band teamed up with producer Kato Khandwalla at House of Loud Studios in New Jersey as well as John Feldmann earlier this year, and will be finishing the album in Dallas.
Album:
Resilience is the fifth studio album by American rock band Drowning Pool. It was released on April 9, 2013, and is the first Drowning Pool album recorded with vocalist Jasen Moreno.The album was also made available for download from iTunes and in MP3 format on Amazon.The album features a much more aggressive and anthemic sound than their previous material.It is primarily an alternative metal and hard rock album, but with hints of post-grunge.Its lyrical themes include partying ("Saturday Night"), confrontation, resistance, anger ("One Finger and a Fist") and other similar themes.Three singles have been released from the album so far. The first single, "In Memory Of..." was dedicated to their original vocalist Dave Williams and was released on August 14, 2012, on the 10th anniversary of his death. The next single, "Saturday Night" was released on November 13, 2012.The third, "One Finger and a Fist", was released on January 29, 2013.The album was recorded at the House of Loud Studios in New Jersey and it was then finished up in Dallas.The album was also produced by Kato Khandwalla.In a post on the band's official Facebook page, guitarist C.J. Pierce wrote,It's been a real pleasure for all of us working with Jasen Moreno. He jumped right in and stepped up to the plate. He's everything we hoped for in a singer. Jasen came in and got straight to work on new music for our next CD. Out of respect to all past singers, and most importantly the Drowning Pool fans, he learned every song from every CD we've made in the past as well. Jasen has brought us not only a new voice but a new fire to the Drowning Pool sound. We all can't wait to get the new music out to there to everyone with the live show.In an interview in September 2012 with Guitar World, Jasen Moreno said: "I am extremely happy and very grateful to be a part of the Drowning Pool family. Everyone's been so welcoming, especially the fans. I can't praise them enough.They've made me feel right at home. This first run of live shows couldn't have gone any better!Resilience has received mixed reviews. Revolver magazine criticized "One Finger and a Fist" for being "full of unconvincing declarations of being "hardcore", and "Saturday Night" for being "an awkward attempt at a party song" but described "Anytime Anyplace", "Life of Misery" and "Broken Again" as songs that "blow through the front door like an angry bull." Metal Storm described Jasen as a worthy replacement for Ryan McCombs, as well as describing "Life of Misery" as the album's strongest track.Shyam Rajdev from Sound and Motion was very positive towards the album and describes its solos as "incredible" and regards Jasen Moreno's vocals as the highlight of the album.
