ANTHRAX recently spent time in the studio recording several cover versions of some of their favorite rock classics, to be included with the upcoming "Anthem" EP, due on March 18.

The track listing for the effort is as follows:

01. Anthem (RUSH cover)
02. Jailbreak (THIN LIZZY cover)
03. TNT (AC/DC cover)
04. Big Eyes (CHEAP TRICK cover)
05. Smokin' (BOSTON cover)
06. Keep On Runnin' (JOURNEY cover)


Glad to see the covers aren't just being slapped on a reissue. I haven't heard the originals of the last three songs. Jailbreak is kind of an obvious song but I'm sure it'll be cool.

You've never heard Smokin by Boston?!

[IrritatedTrout]

Probably have heard it but don't explicitly remember it at all.

cool to see the Boston & Cheap Trick songs on here. excited to check it all out though. can't imagine loving TNT too much though.

Anthrax covering Anthem should be awesome.

I'm sure this will be awesome. Though a better journey song could've been chosen. There's a clip on YouTube of Joey doing separate ways for journeys sound check and he sung it very well.

Looks like it won't be released on its own in Europe, so fuck 'em.
