Underdown:Support 2003-6: The Kaiser Chiefs, Pure Reason Revolution, Cherry Falls, The Vega Method, The Research, The Race and The Open."Atmospheric instant Rock Pop....maybe" Throughout 2004 and into 2005, the band have built on their strong reputation for compelling performances, showcasing their potential to thrill and captivate, gaining the admiration of press, promoters and public alike.
The deconstruction of Pop" Underdown threw themselves into the pursuit of their identity becoming facinated with the rediscovery of self and the deconstruction of pop. "There's no songwriting assembly line, just five fanatics welding old and new together to create carefully crafted and calculated thrills. Nothing happens by accident because everything is for a reason."
Giving people songs to love and treasure" Following a low-key tour in North America, the still young band found a new sense of urgency and inspiration had risen in them, as a result of playing to bigger audiences and discovering new influences. "Its always been about writing great songs that people will love and treasure but we started to experiment with the presentation. Suddenly, bands like The killers, Ours, Death cab, Athlete and Mew plus a few others, showed us that we could create music that was unmistakably Underdown without alienating the listener.

Do you think you could do me a favor? My friend Brian has entered a competition on MySpace for his short film. Its about a kid whose parents are in the porn industry. Its hilarious. I need every single one of my friends to go to the page and give it a big BOOYAH. The voting box is right below the movie and it would mean a ton to me!
