Anthrax Planning To Release 30th Anniversary Edition Of “State Of Euphoria” Next Year

Anthrax are planning to reissue their 1988 album “State Of Euphoria” next year to commemorate its 30th anniversary. Charlie Benante revealed the news to hardrockhaven.net, and also mentioned that it will come with bonus disc of demos and rehearsal recordings.

Benante said the following (transcribed by Blabbermouth):

“Yeah, it’s gonna be a great package. I’m actually almost done putting it together. The only thing I don’t have is good live stuff to go on it, but what can I do? But the bonus disc is gonna have… it has demos, actually, just guitar riffs that go into a rehearsal that go into basic tracks that go into the real songs. So it’s the evolution of most of the songs.”

He also added:

“It’s just funny, because that’s the record that we really don’t like that much, but after revisiting it, I started to pick out songs, and I’m, like, ‘Oh, yeah, this is a good song.’ ‘Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind’, I like that one. ‘Schism’ was another one. I think my least favorite one was probably ‘Make Me Laugh’. But ‘Now It’s Dark’ is on there. It’s good.”
