According to Billboard.com, DROWNING POOL say they are "devastated" that the band's 2001 single, 'Bodies', was featured in a YouTube video posted by Arizona killer Jared Lee Loughner, the 22-year-old who on Saturday (January 8) went on a shooting rampage that killed six people and gravely injured Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
In a statement posted on its official website, the Dallas metal band says: "We were devastated to learn of the tragic events that occurred in Arizona and that our music has been misinterpreted, again...For someone to put out a video misinterpreting a song about a mosh pit as fuel for a violent act shows just how sick they really are. We support those who do what they can to keep America safe. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families of this terrible tragedy."
