Tuesday, September 6th 2011:ANTHRAX, TESTAMENT, DEATH ANGEL: U.S. Tour Dates Announced! Anthrax is going on tour hopefully coming to a town near you!
"We've been tight with the guys in TESTAMENT for a long, long time," said ANTHRAX's Charlie Benante, "so we're really looking forward to hanging out with them on the road. And all of us in ANTHRAX are big DEATH ANGEL fans, so this is going to be a monster of a good time — for all of us and for the fans. Plus, with the incredible success of The Big Four shows over the last year, we wanted to tour with some of the 'second wave' of thrash bands."
"We're excited to do this tour because ANTHRAX was actually the first band we ever toured with," adds TESTAMENT vocalist Chuck Billy. "It's an accomplishment 20 odd years later that we're going to do it again. The tour kick-off date is actually about five days difference from the kick off date of the first tour 20 years ago. The first time we performed with ANTHRAX, we only had a total of ten songs, so obviously now we have many songs to pick from so it will be very different. It's good to see that a lot of the faces in the bands are the same as back when we first did this original tour 20 years ago."
