Anthrax and Black Label Society obviously have a ton of crossover between their two fanbases, but for whatever reason the two heavy metal giants have never actually done a proper tour together — until now. This summer, the New York thrash savants will hit the road with Zakk Wylde and the Doom Crew for a five-week stretch throughout the U.S. and Canada. What's more, they'll be joined by the mighty Hatebreed, who will be honoring the 20th anniversary of 2002's Perseverance all summer long.
The tour kicks off July 26th in Phoenix and will play a substantial number of west coast dates before heading out east and up into Canada, ultimately concluding in Philly on August 28th. Various pre-sale tickets will be live throughout the rest of the week, with general tickets being available starting Friday April 22nd. Grab yours here and see the full routing of dates below.
"Zakk has been a friend and an inspiration to me as a guitar player, songwriter, and beard grower since we met in 1988," Anthrax's Scott Ian said. "We've had the privilege to share festival stages with Zakk and BLS around the world, and it's always been a head-banging mutual admiration society between the two bands. Now we get to share the stage every night on what is easily going to be the heaviest tour of 2022 — the ultimate pounding one-two combination of bands. Oh, and did I mention we've got fucking Hatebreed with us as our special guests? Holy crap, it's going to be the night of 1000 crushing riffs. I can't wait to see you all on the road."
