(antiMusic) Despite the politically correct reasons of scheduling conflicts ruling out Slipknot's frontman joining the ranks of Anthrax. Slipknot are working on a new album after all, the singer let it slip that his label had a big part in nixing the collaboration. "Various people at the record company [Roadrunner] put their foot down about that," Taylor told Metal Hammer Magazine. "So the way we've left it is that I will do a couple of songs with them, and not the whole album."
Metal Hammer responded, "That must have been incredibly frustrating?" and Taylor responded, "Of course, I was so stoked that the Anthrax guys would consider doing anything with me. So the last thing I wanted to do was let them down. I have no idea of what they'll do now [that I'm unavailable], but the fact that they would still want to do something with me is very exciting. We'll have to see what happens."
What will the future hold of the legendary NYC thrashers? We'll wait and see but it would be great to see them return to their best lineup featuring John Bush.
