Southern sludge and creepshow horror -- what else could you possibly ask for from Down?

I've seen Down many times, but never within the confines of their hometown of New Orleans.

The first rule of cat pants gang is: wear your damn cat pants. The second rule of cat pants gang is: look fabulous in your badass cat pants.

Down are back with the second installment of a series of four EPs. ‘Down IV Part I: the Purple EP’ was released in 2012, and the follow up, ‘Down IV - Part II,’ is out today (May 13). The band is also currently on tour with Black Label Society...

The 2014 class of the Revolver Golden Gods tour tore through The Palladium in Worcester, Mass., last night (May 8) like a tornado, living up to the name on the marquee. The titans of metal packed the house for a show that offered up enough raucous revelry and riffs that would have made Atlas himself proud.

Down have signed on to headline the first annual Mike Scaccia 'Rock the Heart' benefit concert, which will take place May 24 at Emo's in Austin, Texas.

Be warned - Phil Anselmo said the new Down song is so heavy, it would make Black Sabbath cry.

Down have been lying in wait and now we're getting our first taste of their upcoming 'Down IV - Part Two' EP. The group has unveiled the new song 'We Knew Him Well' from the disc and fans can take a listen to the track in the player below.

Phil Anselmo's Housecore Horror Film Festival is upon us! The Austin, Texas, music and horror film festival will open its doors on Oct. 24 and will not relent until Oct. 27. The fest is truly unique in its personality, and during Phil Anselmo's recent visit to our studios, the man behind the idea revealed everything we should look forward to from the fest.

The music lineup for Philip Anselmo's Housecore Horror Film Fest has finally been announced and it's every bit as brutal as expected.

If you heard my interview with Pepper Keenan a couple of weeks back, you may remember that he told me the video for "Witchtripper" was coming soon and it didn't involve much playing, just "theater".

Every once in a blue moon I get to talk to an artist that had a profound influence on me when I was a kid and that blue moon rolled around Monday (9/17) when Down guitarist Pepper Keenan joined me for the Maximus 4 o'clock 4-Play to discuss their new disc Down IV Part I: The Purple EP among other things as I spun four from the mini album.
