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.

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
