Solid State Records have set an August 24th release date for The Showdown's sophomore release for the label, Blood in the Gears.

The forthcoming full-length was recorded at Anthem Productions in Nashville, and produced by The Showdown's own, Jeremiah Scott.

"Blood in the Gears is true to what The Showdown has always been about in the past," explains vocalist David Bunton, "...heavy, thrashy, southern, groovy. Jeremiah Scott (bass) recorded and produced the record, all in house and on our own terms. We are sounding like we want to and saying exactly what we want to. That's what heavy metal is all about."

Track listing:

01. Man Named Hell
02. Heavy Lies The Crown
03. Bring It Down
04. Take Me Home
05. Blood In The Gears
06. Dogma Enthroned
07. No Escape
08. The Crooked Path
09. Graveyard Of Empires
10. Diggin' My Own Grave

Blood in the Gears is The Showdown's fourth studio album, and the follow up to 2008's, Back Breaker. The album's title track, and first single off the record, is available for streaming on the band's official MySpace page.
