Volume V
Volume V is the fourth studio album from Down, released on 20 November 2026 through Nuclear Blast. It follows Over the Under, which appeared in 2007, and carries on a run that began with NOLA in 1995 and continued with A Bustle in Your Hedgerow in 2002.
For anyone who has followed the band since the mid-90s, this is the next chapter in an unhurried catalogue, with only a handful of full-length records across three decades. That slow pace gives each new release a certain weight, and it makes the arrival of a fourth studio album an event worth marking for those who grew up with the band's debut.
