Anthrax Will Be The Last Metal Band To Play The Hollywood House Of Blues

Anthrax will be the final metal act to perform at Hollywood’s House Of Blues, which is scheduled to be torn down on August 7, to make room for a new nightclub, hotel etc. The band’s show will take place July 29.

Frank Bello had the following to say:

“Every show we’ve done at the Sunset House of Blues has been a party. Everyone who we’re friends with who’s not on tour shows up, either to jam or drink or just hang out. And I’ll really miss that. Sunset Boulevard has lost its last great place to play.”

Charlie Benante added:

“The memories that have been created will always live on for anyone who went to the House Of Blues. I feel honored and privileged to have this last chance to blow the roof off of the House Of Blues. The Strip will soon end up looking like a corporate strip mall, no memories there.”

Anthrax are currently working on a new album, which is expected to be released in early 2016.
