Sinner is the debut studio album by the heavy metal band Drowning Pool. The album is the band's most popular album, being certified platinum in the same year that it was released in. This was due at least in part to "Bodies" which remains the band's most well-known song. This is the only studio album by the band to feature original lead singer Dave Williams. While touring in support of Sinner, he died on August 14, 2002 from cardiomyopathy. The album debuted at #14 on the Billboard 200 chart. Drowning Pool released a reissue of the album called the "Unlucky 13th Anniversary Edition" in 2014.[5] The album was put at no. 25 on Metal Descent's list "The 25 Best Alternative Metal Albums".[6]
