Nashville’s veteran Southern heavy metal outfit, The Showdown, has posted the third installment of their behind-the-scenes video series, filmed during the 'Blood In The Gears' recording session. Join The Showdown in-studio while they lay down bass, and record the album’s epic motorcycle intro, as they continue to piece together their punishing fourth full-length. The video, which also features a sneak peak at the new Southern rock biker ballad, “Diggin’ My Own Grave”, can be seen below.

'Blood In The Gears' will hit stores on August 24th, courtesy of Solid State Records. Two songs off the new record, “Blood In The Gears” and “Heavy Lies The Crown”, can be streamed on The Showdown’s official MySpace. 'Blood In The Gears' can be pre-ordered at THIS LOCATION.

'Blood In The Gears' was recorded and produced by The Showdown’s own Jeremiah Scott (bass) at his home studio, Anthem Productions. The album was mixed by Steve Blackmon (Living Sacrifice, Project 86), with Troy Glessener at Spectre handling the mastering. Artwork comes courtesy of Ryan Clark at Invisible Creature Inc. 'Blood In The Gears' is The Showdown’s second Solid State release, following 2008’s 'Back Breaker'.
