New Down track

2026-02-13 by CultOfNoise-Steve CONTRIBUTOR | 8 Comments
Iconic heavy metal supergroup ‪Down return with a cover of Dr. John’s "Right Place, Wrong Time!"

New Orleans native Dr. John was an American singer, songwriter, and pianist. His music combined New Orleans blues, jazz, R&B, soul, and funk. "Right Place, Wrong Time" was the first single from Dr. John’s 1973 album, In the Right Place, and became the most popular single of his career. The song has been featured in various films and television shows, including Dazed And Confused and American Horror Story: Coven.

DOWN’s cover and accompanying video, shot last March by Mike Holderbeast, comes in celebration of the Mardi Gras season and serves as a homage to Dr. John and his appearances on The Midnight Special TV series, a late-night musical variety show that aired from 1972 to 1981.

Elaborates vocalist Philip H. Anselmo, “Dr. John’s ‘Right Place, Wrong Time’ is probably one of the first songs I ever learned or knew of as a kid. We grew up in the French Quarter and Dr. John’s music was everywhere. Recording this song was something that I always wanted to do and I’m happy that I did it with DOWN. The video was an absolute blast to make. Even my mom is in it! Because of her, I know Dr. John’s music very well.”

No news as far as the long-incubated album goes from Down.

It's not bad, but it's not something I really want to hear again. Worst thing is Phil's "I'm blowing a fat one out a small hole, there might be blood" vocals.
