As reported yesterday (January 24th), Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian says the band are working on new material. "We're going to Chicago to work our asses off and write a record," he revealed. "It's time. We're ready. One problem... no singer. We were offered a direct support slot on a major tour this spring and (singer) Joey (Belladonna) decided he did not want to move forward. The reunion is over. We tried to make it work but I guess that's the problem, you can't 'make' something work. It's gotta be natural and at least becoming a band again and playing live was. I know a lot of you out there are disappointed by this and that's the last thing we ever want. None of us want to disappoint. If we were meant to make a reunion record we would've. Some things look easy on paper but the reality is that they are impossible and what works for one band doesn't work for others. Maybe we could've forced something and cashed in on a new record but that's not the way we operate. (Drummer) Charlie (Benante), Frankie (Bello) and I are excited about creating new music and for now we will focus on that and write another killer Anthrax record."
