Twenty-five years on, “Bodies” still hits like a freight train. Craft Recordings is marking the silver anniversary of Drowning Pool’s Platinum debut ‘Sinner’ with a limited-edition vinyl reissue and an expanded digital release, both arriving June 5. The anniversary vinyl is pressed on Sea Ink Swirl, with exclusive Clear Smoke and Purple Smoke pressings available through Revolver and the band’s official website respectively. Pre-orders are live now.
‘Sinner’ debuted at number 14 on the Billboard 200 in June 2001 and went Platinum in under three months. “Bodies” hit the Top 10 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart, cracked the Top 40 in the UK, and became one of the most immediately recognizable tracks of the nu-metal era, a fixture in sports arenas, film, gaming, and professional wrestling across WWE, ECW, and AEW. “Tear Away” and “Sinner” followed it into the WWE as theme songs. The album was produced by Jay Baumgardner (Slipknot, Papa Roach, Godsmack) and remains the only record to feature original frontman Dave Williams, who passed away suddenly in August 2002 from heart disease.
The expanded digital edition adds three bonus tracks: “Break You (Demo),” “The Man Without Fear (feat. Rob Zombie),” and “Bodies (Chris Vrenna’s XXX Tweaker Mix),” the latter of which is available to stream now. It’s a genuinely worthwhile addition, giving longtime fans something new while reintroducing the full album to anyone who missed it the first time around.
The band will perform ‘Sinner’ in its entirety on their current tour run, which covers the Americas, the UK, and Europe through the fall, wrapping at Aftershock in Sacramento in October. “We will be playing the Sinner record in its entirety and other fan-favorite songs as well,” the band shares. “Come celebrate Sinner with us.”
