ANTHRAX - JOEY BELLADONNA Has Begun Recording Vocals For New Album

Earlier today, November 5th, Anthrax singer Joey Belladonna filmed a brief video at an undisclosed location in Los Agneles, California. During the clip, which can be seen below, Belladonna stated:   

"What's up? Today is the day. Getting ready to record a new record. Doing some vocals starting today. I'm excited. Anthrax."

In early October, Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian guested on Episode 21 of That Rocks! - hosted by Eddie Trunk, Don Jamieson, and Jim Florentine. During his appearance, Ian revealed the status of the band's follow-up to their 2016 album, For All Kings, which has presumably been in the works for years.

Scott Ian: "Once lockdown and all that stuff happened, nothing creative was happening at all with us through that whole period. And then, slowly but surely, when we started playing shows again in '21 and going into '22, that's when we started working again, really. In the last year, we really started to put stuff together and Charlie (Benante / drums) and Frankie (Bello / bass) and I getting together and having writing sessions and arranging stuff, to the point where we finally went in the studio just recently and recorded nine songs that have drums, bass, and guitar done now. And (Jonathan) Donais' got a couple of lead (guitar) breaks that are killer that he's demoed and sent to us. He hasn't actually officially recorded them yet, but I think he's gonna get most of his stuff written and then he'll go in and record all of it. I'm pretty sure we've got dates on the books for Joey (Belladonna / vocals) to start working as well with Jay (Ruston / producer) next month, so yeah, everything's officially moving along at a decent pace now."
