February/March 2017 will see legendary New York thrashers ANTHRAX back on European soil for the band’s first full European headline tour in more than a decade. Dubbed the “Among The Kings” tour, dates will kick off on 9th February in Birmingham, UK and wrap on up in Paris, France on 16th March; the full itinerary is below.
On all of these dates and to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its release, ANTHRAX – Joey Belladonna (vocals) Charlie Benante(drums), Scott Ian (rhythm guitars), Frank Bello (bass) and lead guitarist Jon Donais– will perform live, start-to-finish, their classic and Silver-certified 1987 album “Among The Living” alongside fan favourites from throughout the band’s rich 35-year career. ANTHRAX’s “Among the Kings” European dates are in support of the band’s critically-acclaimed album “For All Kings” (26 February 16/Nuclear Blast).
A trailer, in which drummer Charlie Benante invites the fans to this upcoming tour, has been launched today and can be seen below:
Said the band’s Scott Ian about the tour, “Finally! We’ve been looking forward to headlining in Europe for so long. We have a killer set planned, new stuff, old faves, deep tracks and “Among” front to back. You’d better start getting in shape now for the epic wardance. See you soon my friends – cheers!”
British metallers THE RAVEN AGE will support on all dates.
