Nuclear Blast Records has announced a remastered edition of Over The Under, the third studio album by New Orleans sludge metal supergroup DOWN. Originally released in fall 2007 and produced by Warren Riker, the album stands as one of the most powerful documents in the DOWN catalog — a raw, emotionally charged record addressing the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the personal turmoil of its members.
The 2026 remaster was handled by Eric Koondel, known for his work with SOILWORK, CYNIC, MALEVOLENT CREATION, and DEATH. The release also marks the first time Over The Under will be officially available in the U.S. market. CD and digital versions include bonus track "Invest In Fear" — its first appearance on a U.S. physical release and on digital streaming platforms worldwide.
In celebration of the release, DOWN has shared the remastered version of "N.O.D." for streaming now.
The current DOWN lineup features vocalist Philip Anselmo, guitarists Pepper Keenan and Kirk Windstein, drummer Jimmy Bower, and bassist Pat Bruders — a collective forged from PANTERA, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY, CROWBAR, and EYEHATEGOD. The band built its legend from the belly of New Orleans, beginning with the platinum 1995 debut NOLA, followed by Down II: A Bustle In Your Hedgerow (2002), Down III: Over The Under (2007), and two Down IV EPs (2012, 2014).
Over The Under remastered arrives on CD, vinyl, and digital formats on June 19, 2026.
