It's official. Bassist Rex Brown has left DOWN to concentrate on his new project KILL DEVIL HILL also featuring drummer Vinny Appice (HEAVEN & HELL, BLACK SABBATH, DIO), guitarist Mark Zavon (RATT, W.A.S.P., 40 CYCLE HUM) and singer Dewey Bragg.

Brown tells 8CountNews.com: "Down's not officially over. I'm just officially out of the band. Things came to a head. They are better off doing what they're doing. They have Patrick Bruders (CROWBAR) playing bass. I kind of lost the passion after a while. There were other problems that we had, so it was best that we parted ways."

Check out the entire chat below:

Kill Devil Hill has scheduled the following live dates:

August
8 - Las Vegas, NV - The Crown Theater
10 - Hollywood, CA - Whisky A Go Go
