DOWNSET Joins PROJEKT REVOLUTION TOUR

downset. Confirmed To Play On Second Stage

(PRWEB) May 18, 2004 --downset. has just been confirmed to join Linkin Park on the second stage of Projekt Revolution, featuring Korn, Snoop Dogg, The Used, and Less Than Jake on this summer's tour.

downset. will unleash songs from their long awaited 4th album, "Universal", on the tour. "Universal" is slated to release June 1st, on Seattle-based Hawino Records. The band just completed 11 blistering new songs, and has been performing sporadically as they return to the top of the amalgamated world they created over a decade ago.

Founded in Los Angeles in the late 80's as part of the thriving hardcore scene, downset. has evolved into an icon of sorts. As the original blenders of rap, funk, hardcore, punk, metal, and socially aware lyrics, they drew influences from Black Flag to Black Sabbath, Public Enemy to Bob Marley.

Their reemergence marks the strength and integrity that has been held high in the eyes and ears of fans and believers. And while their previous efforts have sold close to 300,000 copies worldwide, "Universal" is set to follow suit. Tracks like "Forever", "All Crews", "Black Glock", and "Jumpin' Off", showcase the uncompromising anger and gritty reality downset. fans have learned to expect.

Projekt Revolution kicks off July 23rd and will be hitting 32 different cities through the US. Tickets for every stop are on sale now. Head over to ProjektRevolution.com for buy links and all other additional information or go to www.downset.net.
