We wont waste time filibustering. We'll just say if you're not down with Down, you suck. And if you don't want to see the band open for Metallica, you suck more. The new Down video for "N.O.D." will receive its on-air debut tonight on MTV2 at around 10 p.m. EST in celebration of the 20th anniversary of "Headbangers Ball." The video will also be included on the DVD of the upcoming deluxe reissue of the band's 2007 album Over the Under. If you need to see it now, click "more". But first, check out our new guest blog from singer Philip Anselmo.
Last time we talked, we were just about to go on the road with Metallica in Europe, and by God, it was awesome. Having never been to Bulgaria or Istanbul and a few other less traveled countries, they took to us like the starved to food; it was amazing. We had no idea we had fans in those countries.
Metallica was an awesome spectacle to see, and the guys in the band and crew were f--king great. Special thanks to the Metallica boys for taking us out. I've also been very busy along with the Housecore Records staff getting ready for the Christ Inversion release on October 28.
We kicked off the U.S. leg of the Metallica tour October 21 in Arizona. In between the Metallica dates, Down will be headlining our own shows with our friends Danava supporting us, so I suggest you get there early and check them out. They're great.
It's been a while since we've played the states, so we're absolutely [thrilled] and I can think of no better way to return, but to be doing shows with Metallica! I hope you all make it out to the shows.
