Posted on by Oran


Veteran East Coast Thrashers ANTHRAX have confirmed at least six/seven new studio tracks for the forthcoming coming album. 

L-R: Charlie Benante, Frank Bello, Scott Ian, Joey Belladonna, Jon Donais

Drummer, Charlie Benante says that ANTHRAX has written six or seven songs for its next studio album.

The follow-up to 2016’s “For All Kings” will be ANTHRAX’s third full-length release since the 2010 return of singer Joey Belladonna, who came back into the fold for the “Big Four” shows with METALLICASLAYER and MEGADETH, in the process helping inspire a new wave of creativity.

During a recent interview with “HardDrive DL Roundtable,” Benante stated about the progress of the ANTHRAX songwriting sessions (see video below): “There is new music — there actually is. There are about six, seven songs. And it’s really good.

Asked if ANTHRAX fans can expect to hear some of the new material soon, the drummer said: “I don’t think anybody’s thinking anything is coming out until… The first thing I wanna see come out is a vaccine [for the new coronavirus]. Then we’re gonna put a record out.

We’ll keep you up to date as soon as we’ve more information.
