DROWNING POOL Forges Ahead With 'Know Your Enemy Tour'

March 22, 2008

DROWNING POOL's unstoppable work ethic continues as the band gears up to jump straight from their successful two-month touring stint with SALIVA to their headlining "Know Your Enemy" tour, named for their hit single "Enemy", which is just about to break into the Top 20 at Active Rock Radio. The tour will hit cities all across the U.S. from April 5 to May 18 with EGYPT CENTRAL and NONPOINT.

When asked if the fast pace ever tries their patience, singer Ryan McCombs says, "We like to keep it rolling we just feed off the energy the crowds give us. Your body gets tired from all the traveling, but once you hit the stage, that adrenaline kicks in and theres nothing else like it."

DROWNING POOL has been on the road in support of its third album, "Full Circle", which marks the recording debut of Ryan McCombs.

DROWNING POOL lost its first singer, Dave Williams, to heart disease in 2002, and parted with a second vocalist and a record label while attempting its first comeback two years later.

More recently, bassist Stevie Benton was diagnosed in December with a neurological disorder called Bell's Palsy, which causes paralysis of the face and occasional sensitivity to sound. The group had to cancel the rest of its immediate tour dates so that Benton could recover.
