Vocalist and guitarist Dave Runham comments on the single: “'Set Fire' is about war and conflict existing in many forms. Some fight battles in the physical world, while others struggle within themselves. This duality is at the heart of our upcoming album ALPHA OMEGA to be released 25th July 2025 via Damage Records. ‘Set Fire’ embodies the frustration of trying to fix a problem, only to realise that the real issue lies within yourself."
Upcoming live shows:
APR 19 - BreckFest - Thetford, United Kingdom
APR 20 - Supporting Raging Speedhorn - Cambridge, United Kingdom
MAY 11 - Bloodstock M2TM Guest Headline Act - Hitchin, United Kingdom
JUL 25 - ALPHA OMEGA Album Launch - Stevenage, United Kingdom
JUL 26 - Northants Rocks Festival - Finedon, United Kingdom
AUG 8 - Bloodstock Open Air Festival - Derbyshire, United Kingdom
AUG 23 - ADK Presents - Birmingham, United Kingdom
Drawing inspiration from the crushing grooves of Black Label Society, the soaring melodies of Alter Bridge, the raw aggression of Pantera, and the ominous weight of Sabbath, Lowdown fuse doom-laced chords with searing, down-tuned riffs with pinch harmonics ricocheting through the air like battle cries. Their arrival wasn't just noticed; it was felt.
ALPHA OMEGA is built on the idea that everything—beginnings and ends - come back to us. As Runham explains, "The album ALPHA OMEGA was crafted from the understanding that everything starts and ends with us (you). You are your beginning and end."
Lowdown are:
Dave Runham - Guitar / Vocals
Ant Pinnell - Guitar / Vocals
Kev Smart - Bass Guitar
Richard Emms - Drums
