Waterdown was a German hardcore punk and post-hardcore band from Osnabrück, Germany.

The band emerged onto the scene in 1999 under the formation of: Axel Pralat (guitar), Marcel Bischoff (vocals), Jörg Schwoeppe (drums), Christian Kruse (bass), Holger Behrens (guitar), and Ingo Rieser (vocals).

The band's first release was Never Kill the Boy on the First Date, which put them on the map in both Europe and America.

Sometime between the release of All Riot and the EP Powersnake, Ingo Rieser left the ensemble.

The band put out the EP Powersnake and a final record Into the Flames, until they called it quits in 2012.
