drowning pool (singer, rock, great song, quote, band)

i love the old drowning pool. sinner was a great album. all of the songs on it were amazing.

but honestly whos with me on this one, their new singer is horrible. i cant stand his voice and he gives a totally different sound to the band. i think they shoud have changed the name. the singers voice is one of, if not the most defining sound of a band and when a band changes singer, i think they should change the name as well.

A couple of years ago I liked that one song Let the Bodies Hit the Floor or whatever it's called. I haven't heard anything about them since then, or about their singer leaving.

dave williams didnt leave, he died, i think that their new singer is pretty good, and why would they change their name just b/c they got a new singer? its still drowning pool.

yeah, i knew that he died. (RIP) but really, a band is often, recognized and known by its singers voice. saosins most well known singer, anthony green left. the band still has the same sound though, because the new singers voice sounds really similar.

in the case of drowning pool however, the new singers voice sounds nothing like dave williams'. now their music sounds like just another one of those bland hard rock bands. his voice isnt unique like williams'. ive never heard another voice that sounded like his. and now the band sounds a lot different. when a band changes its sound, i just think that the name that went along with that sound, should be retired. i might like the new band a little more if they had a new name.

You guys talk about "old" Drowning Pool as if there was anything there to begin with. They had one overplayed-to-sh*t song, and the rest of Sinner sounded like a blender of that metal/angst crap that was popular five years ago.
