October 12, 2011, 13 years ago
ANTHRAX vocalist Joey Belladonna is featured in a new audio interview with Natalie at Natalie's World. Check it out below:
As previously reported, Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante recently discussed the band's new album, Worship Music, and Belladonna's return with David Hens at Examiner.com. An excerpt is available below:
Q: As amazing as Among The Living is, I think Worship Music is the best sounding Anthrax album yet. What were your expectations when you first began recording?
Benante: "We didn’t really have any expectations. By about the fifth song, we could feel the record starting to take shape, and we were able to go back and rewrite anything that didn’t work. A lot of what we had in the beginning stayed, because we knew it sounded the way we wanted it to."
Q: How does it feel to have Joey Belladonna back in the fold?
Benante: "It’s awesome, you know? Back in the early '90s, we were different people and not as mature as we are now. Some unwise decisions were made, but you just have to roll with it. There was a moment while recording where I listened to Joey sing, and I knew right then that Anthrax was back. I immediately said, "That sounds like Anthrax.'"
