Over The Under

Down are a band molded and twisted by their environment. Passionate, focused, hanging on to their pride, the war torn history of the brotherhood is a tribute to stubbornness and retribution - an introspection in rock, blues and metal as an inspiration/instigation for the ages. There is no label for what Down does, as are there no labels for the 'thousand miles from New York' bands that share members with them; Crowbar, Corrosion of Conformity, EyeHateGod, and Pantera. This is chemistry. This is post-Katrina New Orleans. Through the wreckage and wretchedness, the third Down album 'Over the Under' is poised fanatically on the edge. Down are considered somewhat of a southern rock/metal supergroup featuring Phillip Anselmo (ex-Pantera/Superjoint Ritual), Rex Brown (ex-Pantera), Jimmy Bower (ex-eyehategod, Crowbar), Kirk Winderstien (ex-Crowbar), Pepper Kennan (ex- Corrosion of Conformity). 'Over the Under' is the band's first in five years. What makes it their strongest yet is that it's also the first time that Down is not a side-project for it's various members and 'Over the Under' gets the full brunt of their collective creative energies.
