*ANTHRAX’S LIVE DVD “KINGS AMONG SCOTLAND”* *CONFIRMED FOR AN APRIL 27, 2018 RELEASE*

Multi-Grammy-nominated
thrash icons Anthrax will see ”Kings Among Scotland,” the band’s
long-awaited live-in-concert DVD, arrive in stores and online on April 27,
2018, 2018 (Megaforce).  Captured last February 15 at the band’s sold-out
concert at Glasgow’s historic venue Barrowland Ballroom, the two-hour
“Kings Among Scotland” incorporates the band’s entire live show along with
interviews, behind-the-scenes footage and other B-roll shot on the band’s
tour bus, backstage, in hotels and elsewhere.  The DVD will also include a
“gear rundown” from each of the band members.  “Kings Among Scotland” can
be pre-ordered starting today; log on to www.anthrax.com for all purchasing
information.

“Playing for our friends at the Barrowlands has always been very special,”
said Anthrax’s Frank Bello.  “We all know we’re going to get together and
have an insanely great time, and we think that incredible interaction and
energy really comes through on this video.”

With packaging art created by Steve Thompson (Slayer, Motorhead, Iron
Maiden), the DVD’s concert is presented in two parts.  For part one,
Anthrax perfomed the “favorites” that had been voted on pre-show by the
band’s fans and includes gems like “Madhouse,” “Be All, End All,”
“Breathing Lightning,” and “A.I.R.”  The band augmented the stage
production for part two, with ramps and staircases and other production
values while they tore into their classic 1987 album *Among The Living*,
performing “Caught In A Mosh,” “I Am the Law,” “Indians,” “Eflinikufesin
(N.F.L.),” and more.

“It was pretty a intense show,” added guitarist Scott Ian, “especially when
the crowd was so insane, the floor actually started moving up and down.”

“It was a challenge for all of us to play ‘Among The Living’ live,” admits
Charlie Benante.  “We’ve played a number of that album’s songs in our shows
over the years, but not all of them, and playing a song in a recording
studio is not the same as playing it live on stage.  So we put in a lot of
time to get all of the tracks down perfectly.  And I’ll tell you, after we
finished that set, as arduous as it was, we all felt a sense of
exhiliration, like we could go out and do it again.”

“Kings Among Scotland” was produced, directed, filmed and edited for
Film24Productions by Paul M. Green (Opeth, The Damned, The Levellers), with
the sound mixed by Anthrax studio producer Jay Ruston.  For the filming,
Green utilized 17 cameras, including a crane and several mobile and
stationery Go-Pros.

The release of “Kings Among Scotland” coincides with Anthrax’s North
American co-headline tour with Killswitch Engage – “KillThrax 2018” – set
