(Rock News Desk) Singer Dan Nelson wants $2.5m from Anthrax after the 18 months of turmoil he spent with the band as they struggled to make comeback album Worship Music.Nelson was named the thrash act's replacement frontman in 2007 after John Bush was sidelined in favour of classic-era singer Joey Belladonna. The reunion fell apart but Bush refused to return.
Anthrax recorded an album with Nelson, but on the verge of its release they announced he'd resigned saying he was too ill to tour. The singer retaliated with a statement saying he'd been dumped while he made arrangements to fly to Europe with the band.
Nelson now says he's entitled to $2.65m in compensation. more on this story
