Released 17 years ago today. I drove about an hour in a hale storm to get it 😂😂😂😂 Great album. Underrated too. Some of the best songs of their career on this record.
James Barnett I know every song on both those albums. I wasn’t saying it’s on down 2. I’m just saying it’s the best song that represents them as a whole. And I will always think Nola is the superior.
being only 21, these guys are one of the bands that outshines the new stuff thats out there, lets face it the newer stuff isn't really what it should be but older bands like Down, Pantera, Sabbath, will always remain timeless because when you hear the music you tell they actually put effort into it, and not just released something that will sell massively and the masses forget in an instant. Down are a timeless metal band, one of the few.
This song has got beeeeeautiful lyrics! Down is just perfect: gifted, talented and they're charisma in live shows is just amazing!!!! So glad that Anselmo nowadays is back with strenght and moving forward! Let's hope he'll keep up with it!
Saw them last night in Knoxville, along with The Melvins, Haarp, and Evil Army. Front row. That was an INSANE concert! Phil was maybe 3 feet in front of me.
i haven't stopped singin this song all week its fuckin awesome!!!! i think parts of this tune are relating back to his days of heavy drug abuse. either way phil is still on form n' tearin up everysong that down do!!!
The intro riff is just so fucking sick man,since the Down II album came out,it has never left my possession,that quite possibly the best album ive ever heard man,far none,every song is fucking killer,but then again,pretty much anything that Mr. Anselmo Mr. Bower Power,and Mr. Weindstein and Rex and Mr. Keenan touch is pure fucking gold man,it just turns into pure utter perfection whatever project they're in,long live the southern metal gods that is Down.
I may not be the most incisive person wandering around on the crust of the earth, but I'd damn near swear that this is Phil's apology note to the rest of Pantera.
yep totally, i find down are a band that will be around for a long long time, they just make music very different and fresh to whats out there. as for pantera ... they are timeless. their music will be around forever just like led zepp or black sabbath.
haha thats rad man i remember when my love for pantera his its peak when i was bit younger and i use to have these dreams about jamming with dime and phil and it was in this shed setting over looking this beach near my house it was pretty cool use to feel so fucking real like just still blows my mind aye.... down , pantera, SJR best fucking bands period!
phil anselmo it's a surviver, i like his trully dedication to heavy rock, it's the kind of atitude we' expect, about Vinnie i respect him a lot, and Dime is in a better place.
in the morning it takes me quite a while to clear my head, then as the day moves on i find it hard to smile at some things said!!!!! fuyckin love the chorus of this sends shivers down my spine!!! fuckin a phil and the rest of down!!
@MrYomom66 It sure is! Kirk Windstein! Still touring around with Down, and he also just put out a new Crowbar album a few months ago if you didn't already know!
can we all just agree that DOWN make fukin unique sublime music?????better than any of this new wave bullshit better than anything you'll hear on the radio......but really appreciated with a big ass J in hand and chilling out......
@DimeLivesInUs You share my thoughts exactly! I have a close friend, she's currently in that hopeless state, I'm trying to get her to listen to this and more of Down's music. It helps me and hope it helps her!
down rocks, but i saw them this summer which was the third time I've seen them and Phil's voice wasn't so great; the two other times were on the 2002 tour right before he first toured Superjoint and they were some of the best shows I've ever seen (Superjoint that summer was fucking awesome too)
i ve seen them live 2 times, once with Metallica at Sofia, and once with AC/DC at Bucharest..they are great, no question about it, but the live sound system suck, they deserve better, no question about it, they should do something about it...
@michaelb1479 nope wrong song it definately reminds me of something off of the great southern trendkill or one of the newer pantera albums. especially that first riff.
@dmagyer technically they are right because they probally meant no southern rock that comes out any more is even worth listening to...if thats the case then theyre right because down has been around for a while, its not new.
Released 17 years ago today. I drove about an hour in a hale storm to get it 😂😂😂😂
Great album. Underrated too. Some of the best songs of their career on this record.
Integrity101 I agree. eyes of the south is the best down song I think.
James Barnett I know every song on both those albums. I wasn’t saying it’s on down 2. I’m just saying it’s the best song that represents them as a whole. And I will always think Nola is the superior.
@@mattthebutcher3364
Thoughts on the two EPs?
Integrity101 I like them. Sounds like new Orleans Black Sabbath.
Love this ....thought damage plan was my cure for the loss of pantera but now i have this R.I.P Dime
metal is in my veins, down is in my heart and soul. down are genius
being only 21, these guys are one of the bands that outshines the new stuff thats out there, lets face it the newer stuff isn't really what it should be but older bands like Down, Pantera, Sabbath, will always remain timeless because when you hear the music you tell they actually put effort into it, and not just released something that will sell massively and the masses forget in an instant. Down are a timeless metal band, one of the few.
You can play this song 100 years in the future and it will still rock you away.
Timeless!!!! \m/
Jesus Christ....easily one of the best metal songs, absolutly badass
This song has got beeeeeautiful lyrics!
Down is just perfect: gifted, talented and they're charisma in live shows is just amazing!!!! So glad that Anselmo nowadays is back with strenght and moving forward! Let's hope he'll keep up with it!
Phil A., Keepin Metal real since 1988!!
Saw them last night in Knoxville, along with The Melvins, Haarp, and Evil Army. Front row. That was an INSANE concert! Phil was maybe 3 feet in front of me.
I can literally listen to anything he sings thank you Phil
Dude...they were like family. No fight and no bad words last forever. By now everything would be fine again.
I was a pantera fan, and I'm a fan of just about anything the ex-pantera guys make! MORE!
My favorite Down song ever
i haven't stopped singin this song all week its fuckin awesome!!!! i think parts of this tune are relating back to his days of heavy drug abuse. either way phil is still on form n' tearin up everysong that down do!!!
One of my favorite Down songs. Rock fucking on.
growing up has a little o teen this was one of my fav Bands still is but during thoes years man this was the soundtrack of my life !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Much as I love this song, it makes me too wound up to relax.
I dunno why.
What an awesome song, badass as hell
i love down :D They are the ultimate supergroup!
PANTERA
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY
EYEHATEGOD
CROWBAR
all together!
DOWN is my life!!!!!!
one of my fav!
One of my friends saw them open for Metallica recently. I would have gone just to see Down. Forget Metallica.
awesome band! THE NOLA supergroup! Can't wait til DOWN IV comes out!
...best song from second album
definatley their best track, fucking badass, the guitar is awesome
The intro riff is just so fucking sick man,since the Down II album came out,it has never left my possession,that quite possibly the best album ive ever heard man,far none,every song is fucking killer,but then again,pretty much anything that Mr. Anselmo Mr. Bower Power,and Mr. Weindstein and Rex and Mr. Keenan touch is pure fucking gold man,it just turns into pure utter perfection whatever project they're in,long live the southern metal gods that is Down.
top 5 for sure...easily
siempre me molo esta cancion
i love the solo
Rex is by far one of the best metal bassist out there. You can actually hear him thumbing on that good ole Spector!
jep, saw them opening for Matallica, since then i like them, so yeah.
we'll never know anymore
i would hav loved to see it
And I guess my 1 a day became 10 or 12 or more and more and more, awesome lyrics
down=awsome.
Yes he is...
Didn't know that Kirk was such a great guitarist, thought that Pepper did all the solos and such. Nice!! :)
badass song.
Hell yeah!, mi favorito of Down, i love the Riff
Great Song
How am I a dumbass? I didn't realize it until now how good he was on the guitar. Chill out due. Damn
I'm so goddamn pissed I missed that show. I heard the shit was incredible.
And incidentally, this is my favorite song by Down. (Although Stone the Crow is close)
(i have always wanted to see the Mississippi river!)
Me too, tbh
I may not be the most incisive person wandering around on the crust of the earth, but I'd damn near swear that this is Phil's apology note to the rest of Pantera.
Matt Revits I think your right. Never paid attention but your onto something.
yep totally, i find down are a band that will be around for a long long time, they just make music very different and fresh to whats out there. as for pantera ... they are timeless. their music will be around forever just like led zepp or black sabbath.
I agree with both of you.
haha thats rad man i remember when my love for pantera his its peak when i was bit younger and i use to have these dreams about jamming with dime and phil and it was in this shed setting over looking this beach near my house it was pretty cool use to feel so fucking real like just still blows my mind aye.... down , pantera, SJR best fucking bands period!
Ugh...this was recorded at one of my favorite venues. Mad I wasn't there that night. Boston in September, though!! Fuck yes!
phil anselmo it's a surviver, i like his trully dedication to heavy rock, it's the kind of atitude we' expect, about Vinnie i respect him a lot, and Dime is in a better place.
just an awesome tune!!!
love the break down "im tryin....." fuckin awesome riffs too!!!!!
down forever! phils the man!!!
in the morning it takes me quite a while to clear my head, then as the day moves on i find it hard to smile at some things said!!!!!
fuyckin love the chorus of this sends shivers down my spine!!!
fuckin a phil and the rest of down!!
@crispykid88 hell yea dude, i was there..one of the best shows ive seen
sos lo mas grande que hay phil venite a Argentina que acá llenas 100.000 personas
It's already out ;)
February, if I remember right, it came out.
Yes. Phil (Anselmo) and Rex (Brown). Pepper Keenan from CoC; Kirk (Crowbar & Kingdom of Sorrow); Jimmy (Crowbar, EyeHateGod)
@MrYomom66
It sure is! Kirk Windstein! Still touring around with Down, and he also just put out a new Crowbar album a few months ago if you didn't already know!
nice song, seen down in cologne last saturday....just fucking amazing show, i love them.....and crowbar, too, of course^^...
i was at that show, in worcester, i had no idea they were shootin a video there. thats fuckin badass, they're fuckin great live
Exactly....Downs first album dropped YEARS AND YEARS before Dimes death.
can we all just agree that DOWN make fukin unique sublime music?????better than any of this new wave bullshit better than anything you'll hear on the radio......but really appreciated with a big ass J in hand and chilling out......
@DimeLivesInUs You share my thoughts exactly! I have a close friend, she's currently in that hopeless state, I'm trying to get her to listen to this and more of Down's music. It helps me and hope it helps her!
and damn right right 222nietzsche, best part of the song
down rocks, but i saw them this summer which was the third time I've seen them and Phil's voice wasn't so great; the two other times were on the 2002 tour right before he first toured Superjoint and they were some of the best shows I've ever seen (Superjoint that summer was fucking awesome too)
I should have been at this show. But I was at college and poor.
it just doesnt get any heavier than this these guys fuckin rock
DAMN - FUCKING - AWESOME!
this song is to fuckin' awesome
Destroying what's got ahold of me
No more the ghost of Mississippi
Phil is such a badass
Help....I've moshed, I've fallen, and I can't get up.
There are plenty of new bands that don't make music for the masses. Especially in the northern European countries.
i saw tehm in los angeles, they signed my guitar, rex was in rehab.
i am a older women and i have to say these guys kick fucking ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thats what I like about him:
He doesn't give a shit
oh my god the riff
this band reminds me alot of pantera
Yes indeed, but the younger kids that got into Dime after his murder don't know anything about this stuff like we do. Rock On Bro!
Phil rules.
Fucking love this song.
im meeting them tonight...
Kick ass, they fuckin rock.
ya it sure does
Amazing! Down Really Are The Shit!
@1awareness I used to see it every day from my bedroom window until my brother decided to swap rooms with me. Now I get to see houses and a pawn shop.
groove metal/southern metal
i ve seen them live 2 times, once with Metallica at Sofia, and once with AC/DC at Bucharest..they are great, no question about it, but the live sound system suck, they deserve better, no question about it, they should do something about it...
@DimeLivesInUs Amen, Brother
AAAAAAAAAAAAAANSELmiTOOOOOOOOOOO! ! VAMOS !
hey i like down AND hannah!
Nah, if they havent taken Stone The Crow down, this aint going down either, probably something to do with labels.
Its a Down-song....so no dime.
Pantera would have 2 more albums out by now if Dime would still be with us.
I heard somebody say that southern rock is no more well if they heard this they would change their opinion
@michaelb1479 nope wrong song it definately reminds me of something off of the great southern trendkill or one of the newer pantera albums. especially that first riff.
@MrYomom66 I think that is kirk though. so yes it is. correct me if im wrong.
Hacia falta una banda asi,por suerte la tendremos en el MAQUINARIA,para romper oreja, y a esta edad(40) mas suave el rock es mejor,ono.
imo, Pantera sounds like they had Texas metal down, and Down gives it a more Louisiana sound.
@DimeLivesInUs All of Phil's music is like that!
down is the shit.
All Hail Phil
@dmagyer technically they are right because they probally meant no southern rock that comes out any more is even worth listening to...if thats the case then theyre right because down has been around for a while, its not new.
