Well ladies and gentlemen, the time is soon coming. Vox are done, I think Bower said drums are done unless Im tripping, so I think we can expect SOMETIME in the coming months. To quote someone on this board, THE WORLD NEEDS MORE DOWN!!

March/April if all go smooth...I guess....

anyone here who is putting the Ep's out? maybe they are self releasing them.

It's listed as Independent Label Group. ILG.

I get the feeling they're kind of over being on regular labels.

After the Diary of a Mad Band fiasco that might be a good thing.

I believe they have their own record label now, Down records. That's what it says on the back of the DOAMB case. Hopefully they self-release the music kinda like what Clutch did with Weathermaker Music and Neurosis with Neurot recordings so I know my money is going directly to them when I buy their music.

What would they do without a record company to tell them that Pat's strings are too loose?

too loose?
to lose?
2 luce?
toulouse?

Yes, and it's part of Independent Label Group.

Which is NOT AT ALL like Weathermaker and Neurot, which are owned by the bands. Down does not "own" their record label. They are a subcontractor, if you will, of ILG, who provides label support for many successful bands that do not want to be on a "regular" label anymore.

ILG is Warner/East West/Elektra

It's basically the same it's always been since Cowboys From Hell

Jesus, Warner owns ILG too?

So, what, are there basically only three labels left in the world now? Warner, Sony and BMG?

Track listing for upcoming EP. Philip says it's "a very pure doom metal record".
In no particular order:
Levitation
Witchtripper
The Misfortune Teller
The Curse Is A Lie
Open Coffins
This Work Is Timeless

from Facebook

"a very pure doom metal record"

Should be good.

Cool that they properly recorded the track we knew as Timeless (if Phil just didn't reuse specific lines/lyrics).

Sounds like it'll all be killer.
