Anthrax has been named as the headliner for the 2013 installment of The Metal Alliance Tour. The third annual trek will also feature sets from Exodus, Municipal Waste, Holy Grail, with some additional bands still to be announced.
The Metal Alliance Tour is set to trek across the United States starting in March and running through the month of April. Organizers have not yet released the dates.
For the trek, Anthrax will be performing their fan favorite 1987 classic Among The Living in its entirety.
Anthrax's Scott Ian had this to say, "Holy crap am I so excited about this year's Metal Alliance Tour! It's been a great year and a half for us since Worship Music came out and to cap it off with a Grammy nomination. This is such a perfect lineup. To make this tour even more special, we will be playing our Among The Living record in its entirety. I can't wait to play Horror Of It All! Come on out and worship with us my friends. You do not want to miss this. USA on Hell one more time
"
"Anthrax has always been one of my favorite bands, and to have them be part of our tour is beyond expression. This is surely going to be one for the history books!" states festival co-organizer Dan Rozenblum.
