Anthrax has revealed a tentative release date of late 2015 or early 2016 for their follow-up to Worship Music, confirming with TulsaWorld.com that a solid amount of material is currently being worked on. With their hashtag #ANTHRAXalbum2015, it is likely fans will have the new album sooner than later, with work having begun on it since touring for their last album in 2011.
“We do have a lot of songs,” guitarist Scott Ian says, “it’s not like we’re just working on ten songs- we have seventeen songs.” Many have already been recorded, and feature the debut of their newest bandmember, guitarist Jon Donais, as they work with producer Jay Ruston again.
