The shrewdly versatile Drowning Pool bring together elements of nu-metal, grunge and hard rock to create heavy music that's meaty and cruel. The Dallas act blew up in 2001 thanks to the mosh-pit anthem “Bodies”, which smacks throat-shredding chants up against scowling funk rhythms. By the release of the ferocious “Step Up” three years later, the group's music had become more groove-focused. Featuring the band's fourth singer since their inception, 2016's Hellelujah finds the savvy vets infusing their attack with blistering tempos and rabid barks inspired by metalcore.
