Rather than take the natural path and make Down IV a single full-length release, southern metal giants Down have instead taken an unusual release strategy and opted to follow up 2007's Down III: Over The Under with a series of EPs. The first of these, the Purple EP, dropped in 2012 and, whilst generally well-received, I found it a tad underwhelming. Thankfully, this second EP offers something of a step up.

Doomy, Sludgy Stonerrifferic hails to Sabbath. Sure, Phil's voice sounds a tad ravaged by time, but group has it's mojo on with second part of IV.

I agree it's better than Part 1... It has more of the Doomy, Sabbath feel to it.

For me this is just as good as Part I, where half the album is excellent, and the other half is average for the band. The Opening three tracks I actually think are weaker than the closing three, the Sabbathian "Conjure" especially making for one of the band's best recent songs. I also think Anselmo's vocals fare a little better here than on the first part of IV.

I think Phil's voice always sounded a tad ravaged by time.
