The wait is finally over for Anthrax’s new live recording.
Kings Among Scotland arrived in stores and online today via Megaforce Records. Originally recorded February 15, 2017 at the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow, Scotland, the two-set, 19-song set list includes hits such as ‘Madhouse,’ ‘I Am The Law,’ ‘Breathing Lightning,’ ‘Indians’ and other songs. Available also on CD and digital formats, the recording also features interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and more.
Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante said in a recent interview that he was happy to finally have the recording available.
“We are so excited that our DVD is finally being released,” Benante said. “Don’t be surprised if the package is vibrating and dripping with sweat when you open it…that’s how live and exciting it really is!”
Front man Frank Bello agreed.
“This was such an amazing experience for us,” Bello said. “The video is so alive and intense that even from the first edit, I felt like I was ‘right there’ at the show, in the audience.”
The release of King’s Among Scotland is only one of the band’s big announcements. The band will join Slayer on its farewell tour this spring and summer. It also has a handful of dates with Testament scheduled. The band’s full, current tour schedule is noted below.
