ANTHRAX Guitarist To Present At Kerrang! Awards

August 20, 2007

ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian has been confirmed as one of the presenters at this year's Kerrang! Awards, which takes place in London, England on August 23.

Commented Ian: "I'm excited, I think it's gonna be a lot of fun! I've never hosted an awards type of thing before, but I was the minister at my brother's wedding, so I had to get up there in front of everybody and actually be the guy running the whole show, so after doing that this should be pretty easy!"

Ian's memories of K! Awards past made the decision to get involved this year a no-brainer. "I went a couple of years ago when ANTHRAX got an award and I had a blast, so I figured it'd be even better this time because I get to be more of a part of it," he said.

ANTHRAX recently abandoned plans to utilize the services of SLIPKNOT/STONE SOUR frontman Corey Taylor on its next album due to scheduling conflicts with Taylor's other projects. ANTHRAX is said to be currently looking for a new singer to join the fold, although this has not yet been officially confirmed by the band or its management.
