A AMPLIFIED TV conduziu uma entrevista com Charlie Benante e Rob Caggiano, respectivamente, baterista e guitarrista do ANTHRAX nas instalações britânicas do SONISPHERE FESTIVAL, que ocorreu do dia 8 ao dia 10 de julho no Knebworth House.
O tão aguardado décimo álbum de estúdio do ANTHRAX, “Worship Music”, será feito em setembro.
Os fãs do ANTHRAX estão esperando que a banda finalmente lance novas músicas, “Fight’em ‘Til You Can’t”, a primeira faixa disponível do novo álbum, “Worship Music”, foram à venda no iTunes. “Worship Music” é o primeiro álbum de estúdio do ANTRAX nos últimos oito anos, e o primeiro com o vocalista Joey Belladonna desde do álbum de 1990 “Persistence of Time”.
O “clássico som do ANTHRAX” “Fight’em ‘Til You Can’t” é uma música sobre matar zumbis, e é a nova música do ANTHRAX – Belladonna, guitarristas Scott Ian e Rob Caggiano, baterista Charlie Benante e baixista Frank Bello – que foi tocada ao vivo desde que Belladonna voltou à linha de frente, um ano atrás. O ANTHRAX disponibilizou a música para download de forma gratuita no mês passado, e os fãs comentaram nas salas de chat.
A arte da capa do CD “Worship Music” foi revelada pela banda. O renomado artista de quadrinhos Alex Ross, que trabalhou com a Marvel comics e a DC comics e é conhecido pelos seus “Marvels”, “Kingdom Come” e “Astro City”, ilustrações e criações de pinturas originais das capas. Ross também fez a arte original dos álbuns “We’ve Come For You All” e “Music of Mass Destruction”, ambos do ANTHRAX.
O feedback inicial da imprensa sobre "Worship Music" também tem sido simplesmente estelar: Alexander Milas, editor da Metal Hammer chamou o álbum de "um riff cagando, cuspidor de fogo, sem dúvida um cd monstruoso, bem vindo de volta, garotos”, enquanto VH1 /" Show That Metal "'s Eddie Trunk disse:" Este álbum é foda! Album de metal do ano até agora! Parabéns . Matador”.
As 11 faixas do "Worship Music" foram produzidas pelo ANTHRAX, Rob Caggiano e Jay Ruston e gravado ao longo de um período de quatro anos em estúdios em Nova York, Los Angeles e Chicago. Belladonna retornou para a banda e levou algumas das músicas originalmente gravadas para serem re-trabalhadas com letras frescas para melhor atender a sua vibração e energia geral. Algumas das canções foram completamente substituídas por músicas inéditas e, claro, todas ela tem o vocal inimitável de Belladonna.
Enquanto o "Judas Priest" é uma homenagem à enorme influência que a banda teve sobre os membros do ANTHRAX e os headbangers em todos os lugares. "I’m Alive" é bonita e grande com uma construção que exige a participação do público. "Crawl" é escura e mal-humorada, cheia de muita emoção e estresse, sentimentos da que a banda tinha no momento em que a música estava sendo escrita. "Fight 'em' til You Can’t" é uma música sobre matar zumbis, e quem não ama uma música sobre zumbis? É a pista uma das musicas novas que o ANTHRAX tem tocada ao vivo desde que começaram a turnê com Belladonna um ano atrás, e vem recebendo uma enorme resposta da audiência. A canção "Earth on Hell" é um clássico do thrash ANTHRAX. "The Devil You Know" é melhor descrita como "um sulco AC / DC filtrada através de uma lente ANTHRAX", enquanto "In The End" tem um som épico, que foi a forma do ANTHRAX de lembrar o falecido Ronnie James Dio e Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott.

Amplified TV conducted an interview with ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante and guitarist Rob Caggiano at the U.K. installment of the Sonisphere festival, which was held July 8-10, 2011 at Knebworth House. You can now watch the chat below.
ANTHRAX's long-awaited 10th studio album, "Worship Music", is due in September.
ANTHRAX fans who have been waiting for the band to finally release new music, "Fight 'em 'Til You Can't", the first track available from the upcoming album "Worship Music", has gone on sale at iTunes. "Worship Music" is the first new studio album from ANTHRAX in eight years, and the first with vocalist Joey Belladonna since 1990's "Persistence of Time".
The "classic ANTHRAX-sounding" "Fight 'em 'Til You Can't" is a song about killing zombies, and is the one new track that ANTHRAX — Belladonna, guitarists Scott Ian and Rob Caggiano, drummer Charlie Benante and bassist Frank Bello — has played live since they Belladonna rejoined the line-up a year ago. ANTHRAX offered the track as a free download last month, and fan comments in chat rooms have been overwhelmingly ecstatic.
In addition, ANTHRAX has revealed the CD cover artwork for "Worship Music". Renowned comic book artist Alex Ross, who has worked with Marvel Comics and DC Comics and is known for his "Marvels", "Kingdom Come", and "Astro City" illustrations, created the original painting for the cover. Ross also did the original artwork for ANTHRAX's "We've Come For You All" and "Music of Mass Destruction" albums.
The early feedback from press on "Worship Music" has also been simply stellar: Alexander Milas, editor of Metal Hammer called the album "a riff-shitting, fire-breathing, doubt-crushing monster of a record. Welcome back, boys!," while VH1/"That Metal Show"'s Eddie Trunk said, "This album is fucking amazing! Metal album of the year so far! Congratulations. Just killer."
The 11-track "Worship Music" was produced by ANTHRAX, Rob Caggiano and Jay Ruston and recorded over a four-year period at studios in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Belladonna's return to the band prompted some of the songs originally recorded to be re-crafted with fresh lyrics or tweaked to better suit his overall vibe and energy. Some of the songs were completely replaced with brand-new songs and, of course, all have Belladonna's inimitable vocal stamp on them.
"Worship Music" is loaded with stand-out tracks. While "Judas Priest" is a nod to the huge influence that band has had on the members of ANTHRAX and metal heads everywhere. "I'm Alive" is beautiful and grand with a build that demands audience participation. "Crawl" is dark and moody, and filled with a lot of the emotion and stress the band was feeling when it was written. "Fight 'em 'til You Can't" is a song about killing zombies, and who doesn't love a good zombie song? It's the one new track that ANTHRAX has played live since they started touring with Belladonna a year ago, and has been getting tremendous audience response. The song "Earth on Hell" is classic ANTHRAX thrash. "The Devil You Know" is best-described as "an AC/DC groove filtered through an ANTHRAX lens," while "In The End" is epic-sounding and ANTHRAX's way of remembering the late Ronnie James Dio and Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott.
