Down is an all-star heavy metal side contrive whose original lineup consisted of members from Pantera (isaac Bashevis Singer Phil Anselmo), Corrosion of Conformity (guitar player Pepper Keenan), and Crowbar (guitar player Kirk Windstein, bassist Todd Strange, and drummer Jimmy Bower). Formed in the mid-'90s when Pantera was on a brief break (between their Far Beyond Driven and The Great Southern Trendkill releases), the quartet's members had been longtime friends and decided to breach up their downtime (hence their describe). The East/West mark issued Down's 1995 debut, NOLA, an abbreviation for New Orleans, LA, from which all its original members hailed. While many put on that the group would particularise in extraordinary, uttermost alloy, it contained more elements of classic rock than the member's usual bands (a prime influence of the mathematical group being Black Sabbath). After a supporting spell wrapped up, short was heard from the group, as the members returned back to their full-time projects, leading many to take up that Down as a one-off. But this proven non to be the case. Anselmo, Keenan, and Bower reconvened to work on new material in 2001, with Pantera bassist Rex Brown pickings Strange's spot in the batting order. March 2002 saw the release of Down's long-awaited sophomore try, the befittingly highborn Down II. A third volume, Down III, followed in 2007.
