Nuclear Blast Australia & New Zealand's John Howarth says 'I am so proud to continue a long standing relationship with ANTHRAX. The album is their crowning glory. It is a true masterpiece. This album will add another decade to their career and will open the doors to a whole new fanbase''
ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian states ''For All Kings is the MOST METAL Anthrax album ever. Fitting for all our most metal friends in Australia and New Zealand. I can't wait for you all to hear this and headbang your brains out. See you all soon! #earboners''
2 Tracks have been released so far: ''EVIL TWIN'' & ''BREATHING LIGHTNING''
Cover Art: Says ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante: "The cover art for this record is again done by Alex Ross, who is probably one of the greatest artists living. And he did our previous covers."
He continues: "My idea for this one was to show this hall and these huge statues of these kings - who, of course, are us - and trying to tie in the last album cover with these creatures who are drawn into this room with our ANTHRAX 'A.' This one, you'll see those creatures in this hall kind of trying to reach up at these kings. We tried to tie in the last two album covers with this album cover. And when you see it, it's beautiful. It's grandiose. It just has this beautiful look to it. And, yeah, it's gonna be a great album cover."
