"Sinner", the title track of Drowning Pool's 2001 debut album on Wind-up, went out in August 2002 as the record's third and last single, after "Tear Away". It was also the last single fronted by Dave Williams, who died the day after it came out. By then the song had already put in time as a theme, for the Jet Li film The One and for the WWF's Vengeance 2001.
Gregory Dark shot the video in October 2001 at the Pink Lady, an abandoned motel in Los Angeles, taking his cue from David Fincher's Seven: the band plays in a swimming pool in pouring rain, cut against grotesque vignettes of a dominatrix and pit bulls, a woman left in a tanning bed until her skin turns to leather, and a man who eats until his belly bursts. Williams remembered four hours of cold rain and mud.
