About

Thrash royalty out of New York City. Formed in 1981 by rhythm guitarist Scott Ian, Anthrax sits in the genre’s fabled “Big Four” alongside Metallica, Megadeth, and Slayer — East Coast speed, humor, and mosh-pit politics from Queens/Yonkers outward.

The current lineup is Ian, drummer Charlie Benante, bassist Frank Bello, vocalist Joey Belladonna, and lead guitarist Jonathan Donais. Landmark eras span Among the Living and the Belladonna years, the John Bush stretch, and Belladonna’s return on Worship Music (2011) and For All Kings (2016). In 1991 they helped smash genre walls by locking in with Public Enemy on “Bring the Noise.” Multiple GRAMMY nominations and decades of festival headlining followed.

After a long studio gap, twelfth album Cursum Perficio is dated September 18, 2026, with early singles “It’s for the Kids,” “The Edge of Perfection,” and more already spinning on MoshStar. Four decades deep, Ian’s riff machine still hits like a runaway train — check the live-date stack for Louder Than Life and the rest of the run.
