Yeah, during an interview with Scream Magazine Scott got mad at the reporter for asking question about Dan! He'd much rather talk about the new album..... but forget that it was actually already recorded with Dan!

There is definately something squirrley going on with Dan's dismissal. One minute, he's the greatest singer Anthrax ever had, next he's out the door without reason and noone wants to discuss it. Weird.
Oh well, I guess we can just be grateful that Joey is back. I hope that relationship lasts for more than one album.

Yep, it's fishy and that's why so many people are curious. Tell the whole story and the questions will start to go away.

The story I heard was that while inebriated on the tour bus, Nelson took a dump on one of the other band members while he slept, and thus Nelson was kicked out of the band. I honestly have no idea if that's even close to what really happened, but the story's hilarious so I'm gonna go with it.

I thought someone posted that story here as a joke.
EDIT: Scroll down mid-way to Troublezones "poop post". I'm still not sure what to make of it.

I've seen it mentioned in a few other forums/boards aside from this one. Your guess is as good as mine whether it actually happened or not. Even if it isn't, I'm fine with continuing to spread the urban legend that Anthrax once hired a poo flingin' monkey as its lead singer...

I'm really diggin' this new album. Easily their best since Sound of White Noise. Not really a thrash album for the most part.
THIS.
I just picked it up a couple days ago and have only had the chance to spin it once. Is anyone else confused about the lyrics? The first few songs seem to be loosely tied together on a sort of "Dead Rising" kind of zombie apocalypse theme, but after that it sort of goes sideways and the lyrics are some of the most obtuse 'thrax has ever had. Musically, I'm enjoying what they're doing, and I'm glad they have given Joey room to be melodic in the material, as that was always one of his strengths, but I can definitely hear the aggressiveness of "Persistence of Time" (my personal fav from the band) in the first few tracks as well.

I got my copy of Fistful of Metal yesterday.
Seems much more pleasant than Worship Music...
I'm happy that Anthrax is finally starting to run in my blood

Bump for upcoming ep news...
Quote :
ANTHRAX will issue an EP of cover songs in September to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the release of the band's latest album, "Worship Music". "It started out as what I call 'The '70s EP'," ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante tells Loudwire. "It's made up of some cover songs from our favorite bands — consisting of RUSH, THIN LIZZY, BOSTON, JOURNEY … We're still working on it now, but I think it's gonna be really cool."
Yippy-skippy!! I loves me some cover albums and Anthrax always does a bitchin' job.

I'm looking forward to hearing them do a rush song. I always thought it would be cool to hear a rush tribute album composed by the thrash/speed bands of the 80's like the big 4, overkill, death angel, flotsam etc . It could be called "Prog Up Your Ass!!!"

More "unofficial" info on the covers ep...
Quote :
ANTHRAX has reportedly started recording the following cover songs for possible release:
* AC/DC - "T.N.T." * BOSTON - "Smokin'" * JOURNEY - "Keep On Runnin'" * RUSH - "Anthem"
ANTHRAX also recorded a cover version of BLACK SABBATH's classic song "Neon Knights" for inclusion on the upcoming Ronnie James Dio tribute album which is being assembled by the singer's widow and longtime manager Wendy Dio.
Hear it live here...Joey sounds weird. Too nasally or something.

Charlie got a busted noggin...
Quote :
Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante’s wife Sandra attacked him from behind in an assault that led to both of them being jailed, his attorney has said.
The couple found themselves behind bars in Indiana at the weekend, charged with domestic battery in front of a child. Benante’s head was bandaged when his police booking photo was taken.
They return to court on Friday, where the drummer’s representative, William L Hotopp, says his client will be vindicated.
The lawyer explains: “Last Friday Charlie was assaulted several times during an altercation that sent him to the emergency room with a gash at the back of his head that required several staples to close.
“Mr Benante and his six-year-old daughter Mia had travelled to Elkhart, Indiana, to meet Mrs Benante and her 17-year-old son, who was participating in a baseball series.
“At some point words were exchanged between Mr Benante, Mrs Benante and her male companion that led to a scuffle.
“Mrs Benante hit Mr Benante in the face, he pushed her away, and as he turned to leave with Mia, Mrs Benante assaulted him from behind, hitting him multiple times on the back of the head with a cellphone.
“Police were called and both were detained. Mr Benante is understandably distraught by this incident, and that his daughter, who he dotes on, witnessed it.”
Benante, 49, will appear in Elkhart County Court, Indiana, and Hotopp says: “We expect complete vindication.”

Eh, I'd rather Joey sing like Joey. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to this ep, whenever it's supposed to come out.

Yeah I agree. It sounds good to me and that he's trying to imitate the late great Dio.
