Anthrax have announced their twelfth studio album Cursum Perficio, due for release on 18th September via Nuclear Blast Records. The new album marks the band’s first in ten years, following 2016’s For All Kings.
“It was quite a journey from the inception of this album to its completion,” explains guitarist Scott Ian. “We were supposed to make this in 2020, but the universe had other plans for everyone. After the Pandemic, we got to be a band again. When we started working on the record, we were just happy to be in a room together. It was so exciting that it was like being reborn in a way. All of that energy and emotion went into the music. The fear of being forced out of our lives and the joy of coming back together are present. The title Cursum Perficio feels like Anthrax. It resembled what we went through to get to the point of finishing the record.”
The band have also released their new single It’s For The Kids.
