Known for their groove-based hybrid of punk, metal, reggae, and rap, San Diego four-piece P.O.D. inject heart, soul, and positivity into their music, a product of their strong faith. Emerging in the early ’90s, the quartet rose to the top of the then-burgeoning nu-metal scene with their third album and major-label debut, 1999’s The Fundamental Elements of Southtown. The LP spawned the hits “Southtown” and “Rock the Party (Off the Hook),” both of which gained heavy rotation on MTV and helped take the album platinum. However, the group’s follow-up, 2001’s multi-platinum Satellite, launched them even higher on the charts, riding the strength of enduring, Grammy-nominated hits “Alive” and “Youth of a Nation.” Subsequent albums like 2003’s Payable on Death, 2006’s Testify, 2008’s When Angels and Serpents Dance, and 2012’s Murdered Love had a more mature sound but kept them planted firmly atop the U.S. Christian charts. 2015’s The Awakening pushed them into concept album territory for the first time, as 2018’s Circles dipped back into an earlier, classic sound. After celebrating the anniversaries of Satellite and Angels and Serpents, P.O.D. returned in 2023 with “Drop.”
