Down - IV: Part 2

Here we have the second EP of the planned four to be released by NOLA metal band Down. This band, in case you didn't know is fronted by Horror nut and ex-Pantera front man Phil Anselmo and features also Jimmy Bower of Eyehategod and Pepper Keenan of Corrosion of Conformity. This EP is a BEAST! If you love Down there is plenty for you here to love. Even though there is no Rex Brown or Kirk in the band any longer, these guys can still get it done. Standouts include "Steeple", the first single "We Knew Him Well...", "Hogshead/Dogshead", "Conjure" and "Sufferer's Years". I just hope that we don't have to wait another two years to hear the next two parts (maybe an acoustic one and one inspired more from Zeppelin?). These guys are not only legendary but, an institution waving that distorted banner for metal for all to see and proudly as well.
