Downt continues to expand across the boundaries of genres with a presence that no longer needs categorization, such as alterna, emo, and indie rock. 2023's first work "III" will be released on CD in limited quantities.

Formed in the spring of last year, 2021, the band started their activities with their first live performance in June, and released their first album "downt" from ungulates in October, instantly becoming a hot topic at record stores and distros including Flake Records and Holiday! They have also become a hot presence in the emo and alternative live house scene.

By the beginning of 2022, they had sold out 500 CDs (250 CTs) in less than 3 months.
In June, the EP "SAKANA e.p." was released, and the release tour held in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka (Tokyo: Shindaita FEVER) was SOLD OUT at all venues, and the band was selected from over 4,000 applicants to perform on the ROOKIE A GO-GO stage at the Fuji Rock Festival, the gateway to success for newcomers. They have also performed at other outdoor festivals around the country, gradually increasing their presence and expanding the scope of their activities.

downt is one of the most eagerly awaited artists in the world today.
This "III," the first release of 2023, which will be followed by a new album, contains two songs: "Zensou" which opens with beautiful feedback noise, and "13gatsu" an 8-minute-plus epic that ends like water seeping through multiple layers, and is yet another new departure for the band.
