Anthrax @ Nassau Coliseum in 2010 (more by Matthew Eisman)

Thrash metal titans Anthrax are gearing up for the release of their 10th studio album Worship Music on September 13th via Megaforce Records. Marking the group's first studio offering since 2003's We've Come for You All, its release lines up perfectly with Yankee Stadium's Big Four spectacle, and as BBG points out, a secret NYC show as well. Unlike many classic hard rock and metal bands who are replacing their frontmen/singers, Anthrax is happy to say that vocalist Joey Belladonna is a full time member of the band again.

"Getting Joey back in as our full-time, permanent singer solidified us as a unit like we hadn't been in years," said [Scott] Ian. "All of us were on the same page creatively, working together, writing together, and becoming a band again."

"I get goosebumps listening to the new music," [Charlie] Benante admitted. "Scott and Rob [Caggiano]'s guitars are absolutely on fire, Frankie [Bello] kicks butt on bass, and hearing Joey sing, well, the band sounds like Anthrax - Joey's back and it's great."

The band just played Fallon on Wednesday (9/7), video below.

Anthrax will head out on a fall North American tour with Testament and Death Angel, kicking off in mid-October in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The three acts will hit Chicago's Congress Theater on Saturday, October 15th. Tickets go on sale TODAY, at 10AM CST. This tour will continue through the month of November, and then on their own, they'll visit Japan in December.
