**Everdown** was a crossover thrash and hardcore punk band that originated out of Manchester, New Hampshire in the United States. The band began in 1992 as **Dry Bones**, and later **Crawlspace**.

## History

Everdown began in 1992, originally was Dry Bones. The lineup at the time consisted of Vocalist Erik Bureau, Guitarist Nate Shumaker, and Drummer Chris Wible. The band would then hire on Chris Allain on Bass as a session member. After the band recorded a demo, they hired Bryan Young to take the mantle of Bassist. In 1993, the band changed names to Crawlspace. Bureau had departed for a brief time and would be replaced by Rob Wolfe (ex-Sacrament).

In 1994, the band switched names once again to Everdown, with the lineup of Bureau, Shumaker, Wible, and a returning Allain. With the lineup, the band would record their debut album, *Sicken*, which was released in 1994 via Tooth & Nail Records and Solid State Records. Young would return on Bass briefly before Ryan Leach took over the position. With Leach, the band would begin recording *Straining* in 1995. Zack Wells took over Bass shortly thereafter. After the album was recorded, by 1998, the band would disband, with the final lineup of Bureau, Shumaker, Wible, Rhythm Guitarist John Helmig, and Bassist John Becht.

In 2009, the band reunited, with the lineup of Bureau, Shumaker, Wible, Helmig, Becht, and Greene on Rhythm Guitars. The band would release a two-song EP, *WD40/Black Clover*, via Urban Achiever Records. In 2012, the band played a reunion show alongside Stavesacre, Ghoti Hook, Puller, and Living Sacrifice. In 2015, the band released a second EP, *Coleman/Mr. Brown*, via the same label. After the release, the band seemingly embarked on a hiatus.
