Jeff Hanneman Memorial Details Announced

Rex Brown Out Of DOWN

It's official. Bassist Rex Brown has left DOWN to concentrate on his new project KILL DEVIL HILL also featuring drummer Vinny Appice (HEAVEN & HELL, BLACK SABBATH, DIO), guitarist Mark Zavon (RATT, W.A.S.P., 40 CYCLE HUM) and singer Dewey Bragg.

Brown tells 8CountNews.com: "Down's not officially over. I'm just officially out of the band. Things came to a head. They are better off doing what they're doing. They have Patrick Bruders (CROWBAR) playing bass. I kind of lost the passion after a while. There were other problems that we had, so it was best that we parted ways."
