ANTHRAX's SCOTT IAN Speaks To KERRANG! Magazine At SONISPHERE (Video)

July 15, 2014

Kerrang! magazine conducted an interview with ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian at the U.K. edition of the Sonisphere festival, which was held July 4-6 at Knebworth Park in Hertfordshire. You can now watch the chat below.

ANTHRAX has played more Sonisphere festivals around Europe than any other band and was featured at Knebworth for every U.K. edition of the festival. But this summer, they went one better by performing not once, but twice at Knebworth. Not content with already playing on the Apollo stage on Saturday, July 5, they took advantage of a day off on the Friday, July 4 to give those in Bohemia a special treat, by stomping their way through their classic "Among The Living" album in full, in a sweaty, heaving tent.

Tentatively due in early 2015, ANTHRAX's next album will mark the recording debut with the band of guitarist Jon Donais (also of SHADOWS FALL),who replaced Rob Caggiano in January 2013.

Regarding whether Donais is now officially an ANTHRAX member, Ian told Metal Insider: "For all intents and purposes, he's in ANTHRAX. He's going to be there for everything we do moving forward. As far as how you title it, yeah. As far as I'm concerned, Jon is in ANTHRAX and will be playing leads on the record and will be touring with the band [for the foreseeable future]."
