    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    You're welcome! I love how part of this interview has sparked a discussion about the Bush era too. I think those are the best kind of reactions, when fans discuss what was said. I love reading those! If we get any more 'big 4' bands, I'll definitely come back to you guys. I'm personally...

    Haha yeah Scott would've probably talked for two hours, and I'd probably be curled up in the fetal position in a corner because transcribing it would be such an effort.

    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    I got the feeling in listening back to the interview to transcribe it (Ed did the interview, I did the article) that Charlie doesn't give a lot of interviews and it might account for why his answers were short or at times a little simpler. Which makes sense. If you think about it, whenever you...

    http://www.altwire.net/2016/02/04/altwire-interview-anthrax/ It's up. And we're very proud of it. We hope you love it too. I honestly think it's in the top 3 interviews we've ever done.

    It'll be up by tomorrow at the absolute latest. I pulled an all nighter transcribing it. Here's a bullet point list of what we discussed though: The Smithsonian exhibit Anthrax's early days and the punk influences that made their style feel different than the other 'big 4'. His thoughts on...

    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    Interview went well, 28 minutes (ran over the 25 mins slightly). Asked about 16-18 questions in that time. All but two questions were asked, and the remaining two were 'randoms' anyways. Very indepth. I'll try and publish this ASAP for you guys. \m/

    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    We're ready for Charlie today. Good mix of legacy and new album questions. 20 questions, and we have 25 minutes. So there's actually a chance we may not even be able to ask them all, unless Charlie willingly goes over time (which some artists do). We'll let you all know how it went the minute...

    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    Thanks to both these boards, and our own curiosity on certain things, we are looking at at least 20 questions right now (combined with us and yours). Keep submitting. If Charlie brings his a-game and wants to talk...this is going to be an incredible interview.

    Due To Interview Charlie Benante On 2/3 - Submit Questions!

    These are brilliant questions guys. I actually, given the fact that we have 25 minutes with him...am definitely planning to make this a retrospective, focusing on the bands 35 year history as well as the new album. So if you guys want to know anything about certain albums, past collaborations...

    Hi everyone. My name is Derek and I'm the editor-in-chief of an Alternative Music website called AltWire. We specialize mostly in interviews, and one of the things we love doing is making our interviews more 'fan-centered' and asking the kind of questions that diehard fans would like to know...
