I see my demons at night
They whisper in my ear

They say everything will be alright
Burn with me

dont you feel no fear

rowning Pool has been through a
lot as a band in their over-sixteen
year career. From the death of their
powerful original lead singer, Dave Williams,
in 2002, to showcasing the vocal talents of two
other lead singers in the meantime, it hasn’t
been an easy road for them to travel. But, in
2012, that seemed to all change when Jasen
Moreno took the mic as their new front man.
Drowning Pool seems, and sounds, better
than ever with the release of the sixth album,
Hellelujah, and a welcome return to their
heavier, darker roots. We had the honor of
sitting down with Jasen Moreno to discuss the
band’s transition, both in music and to a new
record label, and we ended up learning a little
bit more about Jasen as a person, how it feels
to step into the legendary vocal shoes of Dave
Williams, overcoming his own demons, and
how he uses the power of his voice and words
to reach out to the fans.
