Zitat von PhilWell, once again it’s been TOO long since I last contacted all of you—but here it is!
We’ve been hammering Europe to pieces as of late, & today is our last of 4 shows in Gothenberg Sweden. Two shows earlier we were in Germany, which was a blast (awesome crowds!). When we played Hamburg, as a boxing journalist/enthusiast, I snuck away on the day off there & hung out with the World Heavyweight Champion Wladimir Klitchko & his trainer Emanuel Steward for the day and into the evening! What a blast!
That experience itself has me so fucking pumped up for the upcoming 5 Metallica shows, that take DOWN to uncharted territory for us like Latvia, Bulgaria, & Istanbul, Turkey. Unbelievably Down ends the tour by playing Tel Aviv, Israel on our own. We come in peace! (Let’s hope we make it out of there in one piece!).
***ALSO!!! –We’ve been fucking around with some new material, & we’ve got enough material already recorded (at least 6 new songs) as well as some unreleased stuff from the OVER THE UNDER sessions. It’s definitely enough for an awesome EP, with some surprises within.
We are dying to get back home to the US & do some touring! There’s WAY too many cities we haven’t hit, and the big cities NEED to have another jam session with us. It’s coming… I promise! We’re in the process of putting a tour together as I write, so be ready when the time comes.

Mr. Anselmo plant eine Autobiographie. Das kann ja heiter werden...
ZitatAccording to a posting (http://www.rosshalfin.co.uk/diary/july- ... y-2008.php) on legendary rock photographer Ross Halfin's official web site, Philip Anselmo (DOWN, PANTERA, SUPERJOINT RITUAL) is working on his autobiography. Anselmo apparently revealed the news to Halfin this past Sunday (July 27) following DOWN's performance in Istanbul, Turkey as the support act for METALLICA.
"I walk to the dressing room and Phil grabs me for a hug while The Snake [SKID ROW guitarist Dave 'Snake' Sabo, who manages DOWN as part of the successful management company McGhee Entertainment headed up by Doc McGhee — Ed.] looks on with jealousy, Ross writes. "Phil tells me he's writing a book about his time doing what he does and it'll include his time in PANTERA."
Philip Anselmo revealed in an online post this last week that DOWN has recorded at least six new songs for a possible new release which may also included previously unreleased material from the "Over the Under" sessions. DOWN's video for the song "On March The Saints" can be viewed on YouTube. The track comes off the group's latest album, "Over the Under", which was released on September 25, 2007 through ILG/Warner Music Group (one day earlier internationally via Roadrunner Records). The LP was issued in Europe as a limited-edition digipack CD featuring the bonus track "Invest in Fear".
