In the exact words of guitarist Nate Shumaker, "Everdown was Crawlspace." The Manchester, NH-based band leaned into their influences of Helmet, Stompbox, Clutch, and other "aggro" bands to create something all their own. As Everdown, they were only the fourth "hardcore" group to be signed to Tooth & Nail Records after Focused, Unashamed, and The Blamed paved the way for them.
