"Full Circle" is the third album from hard rock band Drowning Pool. It is their first release with former SOiL singer Ryan McCombs, who joined the band after the departure of Jason 'Gong' Jones in 2005. It was released on August 7 2007. This album has more of a Post-grunge feel to it compared to the last three releases by the band and is less heavier contaning nothing that could be classed as growly vocals, that the last two vocalist for the band have utilised. The first single off the album, "Soldiers," is dedicated to all the men and women of the United States Army.

The album debuted at number 64 on the United States "Billboard 200", selling about 10,000 copies in its first week.
