The 13-track robust monster of a record is a 48-minute experience that will most definitely change your life. The opening track, "Got A Feeling," kicks off the album with loud guitars riffs and vocal harmonies that would make Freddie Mercury proud. "Back to Haunt You," the lead single of the album is a catchy in-your-face rock anthem that brings people to the dance floor. The single has received enormous play on the three largest nationwide radio stations (Radio Rock, Radio X3m, Ylex) as well as topped all Finnish download charts (#1 Radio Rock Downloads, #1 CM Downloads. #1 Tune Downloads, #6 MTV3 Downloads, #4 Meteli Downloads).
"The party mood is instantly raised to top level with the promising album starter Got A Feeling. Super!"
Hufvudstadsbladet 2010
All songs were written by the singer, The Muff, and guitarist, Zack, with the exception of the single "Back To Haunt You". The track was co-written with Anders Wikström and Fredrik Thomander, who have previously worked with N’ Sync, Scorpions, Arashi and Backyard Babies. "We wanted Double Down to be built on pure inspiration, so we took the time to let the songs write themselves", says singer The Muff. The band recorded and produced Double Down without any outside help, to achieve the true NAKED sound.
"The Muff and writing partner Zack Schleidecker experience no problems in elevating a song of any style with an extremely catchy chorus. The songs I Got a Feeling, Shit Out Of Luck, One More Time and I Know are textbook examples of hypercatchy songwriting.

The Finnish release of the album kicks off the Double Down Tour Part 1, during which NAKED plays 10 extravagant rock shows sweeping through all major cities in Finland. Double Down Tour Part 2 will take NAKED through Russia and Scandinavia in early 2011. Arrangements in collaboration with MUSEX (Music Export Finland) are being made to showcase the band in Los Angeles and New York during May 2011. Shows in Japan and Thailand will be the grand finale of the tour.
"Forget feeling tired or stressed when blasting Double Down. The album is an incredible spectacle free of unnecessary sappiness and unfounded posing.
