August 24, 2007

A short performance clip from DROWNING POOL's current tour can be viewed below.

DROWNING POOL's latest album, "Full Circle", sold around 10,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 64 on The Billboard chart. The represented a sharp drop from the first-week tally registered by its predecessor, "Desensitized", which opened with more than 42,000 copies back in April 2004 to land at No. 17 on the Billboard chart.

DROWNING POOL recently extended its current "This Is For The Soldiers" tour, with the newly announced shows beginning on September 3 in Corpus Christi, Texas and ending on November 8 in New York City. THE EXIES will appear on the bill as well. As previously reported, 50 cents of each ticket sale from the jaunt is going to the non-profit organization Iraq & Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA),with another 50 cents going to the USO. DROWNING POOL is using the tour, as well as its new single "Soldiers", to draw attention to the crisis facing U.S. troops returning home from duty in the Middle East to inadequate health care.

The Texas-based band is campaigning to urge Congress to expand mental health care for returning troops and has launched a web site and petition about the issue at thisisforthesoldiers.org.
