ANTHRAX: Video, Live Album, DVD Update - Dec. 18, 2003
ANTHRAX's video for the track
"What Doesn't Die", the punishing opening track off their latest album,
"We've Come For You All", will be filmed next month in Los Angeles.
As reported earlier, the video was written and conceived by comic/writer
Brian Posehn, know best for his work on
"Mr. Show",
"Just Shoot Me" and his own stand up routine.
Posehn will co-direct the clip with
Michael Sarna who has previously worked on videos for
50 CENT,
SMASHMOUTH, and
COUNTING CROWS.
A management spokesperson describes the concept of the video as "the most kick- ass, zombie-filled video of all time."
ANTHRAX filmed their sold-out Dec. 5 show at the Metro in Chicago for an upcoming CD/DVD, due sometime in 2004.
"One band, eight cameras, and thousands of crazed fans all came together for what will prove to be one of the most lethal live albums and DVDs of all time," reads an official press release announcing the upcoming release. "Ninety minutes of pure destruction covering the entire career of this influential band. From their raw debut
'Fistful Of Metal' through their critically acclaimed latest
'We've Come For You All', it's all here. Songs like
'Metal Thrashing Mad',
'Caught In A Mosh',
'Be All End All',
'Only', and
'Safe Home', among others, were performed with all the power and passion that
ANTHRAX has been known for throughout their 20-year career."
In other
ANTHRAX news, there is still time for fans to vote for which songs they would like to hear recorded on the band's upcoming CD,
"Metallum Maximus Aeturnus", a project in which the band will re-record classic
ANTHRAX songs originally recorded by previous line-ups of the band (circa 1984-1990) live in the studio as part of their 20th Anniversary Celebration. The songs recorded will be chosen by the fans who are currently voting online at

I would love to know where the shoot is going to take place.
