DOWNSET: Am 10. Juni kommt das neue Album "Maintain"

Acht Jahre nach dem letzten Album sind DOWNSET mit neuem Material zurück: Am 10. Juni erscheint mit "Maintain" ein neues Studioalbum der Band, die den Rap-Metal der 90er maßgeblich geprägt hat. Die erste Single heißt "The Place To Be":

Gitarrist  Rogelio Lozano sagt zu dem Song: 
“This was one of the first tracks written with the new members Bobby Ponte and Philip Gonzales. With Nick Jett (TERROR) engineering and co-producing, our first objective was to try and revisit the original DOWNSET sound of the first ever recorded demos. To try and recreate the tone, we first unwound our guitars and basses back to drop “C,” and then created heavy rhythmic beats and riffs to facilitate a platform for Rey Oropeza’s Hard Rap flows."

Und zu den Lyrics:
“The lyrics to this song combine several subjects into one song and at the end all tying in together. Represent yourself with class, responsibility and courage. Setting a good example for our youth is my interpretation of the message.”

1. Maintain

3. New Respect

5. Wreck It
6. On Lock (Only the Defest)
