Down For The Count

Hailing from sunny Southern California, Down for the Count is a shining star in the world of upcoming music. These boys have traveled a rough road to get where they are. Even after enduring a van inferno, deportation from a foreign country, and several member changes, D4TC presses on. In their young careers, the band has already self-released two albums. The first was an EP entitled "History in the Making," released in 2005. This sparked the interest of Japanese indie label Kick-Rock Music (Valencia, Four Year Strong, Sound the Alarm). The label proceeded to release the band's debut full-length album, "Broken Record Tactics," in February of 2007 through major stores in Japan including Tower Records and HMV. The album was then self-released in the U.S. in May of 2007. After months of relentless promotion, rigorous touring, and non-stop writing, the band inked a deal with indie label Negative Progression Records in April of 2008. Their debut release for Negative Progression is a 6-song EP entitled "Battle Royale," a shimmery work of art that clearly shows the band's true colors and talent. The record hits stores in early 2009...be on the lookout for D4TC.
