Drowning Pool Upset Over AZ Shooting Ties
Once again, heavy music is unfairly connected to a national tragedy. Texas rockers Drowning Pool posted multiple statements on their website addressing the fact that Arizona shooter Jared Lee Loughner posted a video that featured their definitive, 2001 hit, 'Bodies,' on YouTube.
Loughner, 22, opened fire in Arizona on Jan. 8, killing six and injuring several other innocent bystanders, including Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who was hosting a 'Congress on Your Corner' event at a local supermarket. It's an unfortunate association, and the band wants to remind people that their music does not incite a disturbed person to action.
