Though Ozzfest is heavily rumored to be on hiatus or seriously downsized this summer, fans of classic heavy metal will still have a handful of opportunities to see some of the figureheads of the form.
Anthrax has signed on to support two dates of Iron Maiden's Somewhere Back In Time tour on May 30 and 31 at Irvine, California's Verizon Wireless Amphitheater.
These shows, along with a warm-up date at Chicago's Double Door, will be Anthrax's first shows with new vocalist Dan Nelson, who joined the group in 2007.
"I saw [Maiden] two weeks ago and sang every word," said Frank Bello in an endearing statement of metal brotherhood. "They're better than ever!! I can't wait to play with them again!! Good times!!"
After playing the shows, Anthrax is expected to continue working on the follow-up to 2003's We've Come For You All.
Tour Dates For Anthrax :
05/28 - Chicago, Il - Double Door
05/30 - Irvine, CA - Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
05/31 - Irvine, CA - Verizon Wireless Amphitheater
