January and February of 2023 will wee ANTHRAX and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY hitting the road with EXODUS for a run of North American dates
In early 2023, ANTHRAX and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY, who tore through the country this past summer with their iconic thrash/heavy metal, will be heading back on the road for a 24-date tour, making stops in all new markets, with both bands playing headline sets. Joining ANTHRAX and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY as special guest on this run will be California’s thrash metal icons EXODUS.
The trek launches on January 17 at the Revolution Concert House in Boise, Idaho and comes to an end in Oakland, California with a show at the Fox Theater on February 18.
As this tour will take the bands to different markets than last summer’s did, the multi-gold and platinum, card-carrying member of the “Big Four“, six-time-Grammy-nominated ANTHRAX looks forward to continuing the celebration of its landmark 40th anniversary (now in its 41st year) with fans. The band said: “We are so pumped to be hitting the road again with BLACK LABEL SOCIETY. We had such a great time when we toured with them earlier this year, that we had talked about doing it again when we were still on the road together. And, having the guys from EXODUS on the bill as special guest, will definitely make this a tour not to miss.”
Said BLACK LABEL SOCIETY‘s Zakk Wylde: “ANTHRAX is one of the bestest legendary metal/thrash bands of all time. I have been buds with Scotty, Charlie, Frankie and Joey for over 3O years and they are some of the bestest people you will meet. Jon is the bestest new addition ANTHRAX could ask for. The ANTHRAX + BLACK LABEL SOCIETY & EXODUS tour is going to be one of the bestest tours ever!!”
EXODUS guitarist Gary Holt said: “EXODUS are super stoked to announce that we will be touring with ANTHRAX and BLACK LABEL SOCIETY. Touring with our long-time friends in ANTHRAX is always an epic good time, and now we get to tour with BLS and watch Zakk and company rip it up nightly too! Going to be awesome and we will be bringing our unique brand of audio violence to every city! Let the metal roll!”
General ticket sales begin on Friday, November 4 at 10 a.m. local time.
