Former Pantera and Down bassist says he and Judas Priest guitarist have “become really good friends.”

Down recently visited Loudwire's offices when they were on tour in New York City. The entire group swarmed on our little studio room to talk about their four-part series of 'Down IV' EPs, all the while anointing themselves the most handsome band in the history of handsome while knocking back a few beers.

We recently reported that Down offered a stream of their new track ‘Witchtripper.’ Now, the band has revealed the actual title and album art for their upcoming EP.

Down is coming to Shreveport on Memorial Day weekend along with Haarp and River Blindness.

We’ve got good news if you’re a patient fan of blood and guts films, and bad news if you’re not. Philip Anselmo, a renowned horror hound who absolutely loves that film genre, will launch his first-ever Housecore Horror Film Festival in Austin, Texas. However, the festival, named after the singer’s label, is scheduled for October 2013.

Former Pantera front man, Phil Anselmo busted his head open during a performance in New York City last night. Phil was performing with his new band Down when he accidentally had his head cracked open when guitar player Pepper Keenan hit him in the head during the song “Lifer” which he dedicated to the late Dimbag Darrell.  More after the jump.
