[edit] History

Three of the members of Pound were in a New York hair metal band in the early 1990s. Later in the decade, they shuffled their lineup and changed stylistically. In 1999, they signed with Island Records and released their debut album, Same Old Life, produced by Tom Lord-Alge. The album's lead single, "Upside Down", was a rock radio hit in America, reaching #16 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart that year.[1] The group left Island in 2000 and reconstituted itself as Flywheel; its first album under the new name was released in 2003. A follow-up release, also self-titled, appeared in 2005.
