User talk:Metaldown

Metal Down is an ecclectic collection of members. Backgrounds ranging from Speed metal to Country, from Anthrax to ZZ Top.Everything coming together to add soul and an honesty to the music. A rhythm that can only be described as "Metallica meets Lynyrd Skynyrd", and still not nail it down. Making it truely original. There is nothing "cookie cutter" about Metal Down. The origin of the band seems as much destiny as design. Roy Wade (lead guitar) and David Gallegos (rhythm guitar) began rehearsing together, and felt like they could make a new band work.They met a great drummer Craig Keng. David called in Shane Green (bass) whom he had worked with before. They decided to invite their old singer James Irwin to come down and check their band out. Knowing that he was a country/southern rock singer, it was serendipitous, as he was moved to sing along with their metal cover songs.They decided that the band worked together wonderfully together. Soon after, the original material, began pouring out of them. Each person bringing their own emotion and personality to each and every song. Every song is influenced by who they are and where they come from.
