The Metal Box is a weekly web series posted each Friday where we be discuss all things hard rock and heavy metal: news, videos, interviews, live concerts and more.

This week, we talk about the long awaited new release from Anthrax called For All Kings which debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 Album chart.

Anthrax formed out of NYC in 1981 and is considered to be one of the leaders of the 1980's thrash metal scene and they are one of the "Big Four" along with Metallica, Megadeth, and Slayer. The band's classic lineup consisted of singer Joey Belladonna, lead guitarist Dan Spitz, rhythm guitarist Scott Ian, bassist Frank Bello, and drummer Charlie Benante. Anthrax have sold over 10 million records worldwide and will be out touring in support of their new album including a stop at Rock'N Derby in May at the Schaghticoke fairgrounds (just outside of Albany, NY).
