Anthraxin vokalisti kertoo yhtyeen seuraavasta albumista

Yhdysvaltalainen thrash metalin veteraani Anthrax julkaisee uuden ”For All Kings” -nimisen albuminsa helmikuun 26. päivä Nuclear Blast Recordsin kautta. Yhtyeen vokalisti Joey Belladonna on antanut hiljattain Metal Forces -nimiselle lehdelle haastattelun, jossa Joey on kertonut yhtyeen seuraavasta albumista sekä jakanut omia ajatuksiaan Pariisin hiljattaiseen terrori-iskuun liittyen. Voit lukea Belladonnan mietteitä aiheen tiimoilta tästä:

”I think the band overall is sounding like it really wants to be. It’s definitely heavier. For me, vocally, there’s a little bit more room than usual. It’s really, from the start, like the old days. We have finally had a chance to be a band; we haven’t had any people in from the side, like this guy or that guy, and all that horse shit we used to go through [laughs], or they have been going through… I think it really just sounds like a new thing that we’re doing. It’s a bit of the old, a bit of the new, and it’s kind of a darker album, too. It’s got some really interesting moments. I just think we’re really, really on top of our game, doing what we need to do.”

Puhuttaessa Pariisin terroristi-iskusta:

”We had played Paris about a week to two weeks before that. Someone asked me about that, too, like what I think about the area and what’s going on — even though that hadn’t happened yet. I said ’You know what? It sucks.’ What do you do? Does anybody really have any answers for that kind of stuff? The more and more I listen and the more and more people talk about it, it’s a very complicated situation. It’s deeper than it looks.”

”Every day goes on and every show that happens, you can’t help but think about stuff like that. We’re very sad to hear of any of that stuff go down, because we knew some of those people. There were caterers there that we knew, some lighting people that were there. You know what? Who would’ve even thought that with Dimebag [Darrell Abbott, late PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN guitarist who was shot while performing onstage on December 8, 2004]? That somebody would come into a club and do shit like that? Any of that stuff, it’s horrible. I wish I had an answer for it, and I wish I had… Who wants to stop? I don’t wanna stop, and I don’t want people to not come out. We don’t wanna go home, and all that stuff. We’re just carrying on right now. Everybody’s taking as much measures as they can.”
