Arson Anthem

Arson Anthem

Arson Anthem, the band and the album, is a knuckle-scraping punch of aggression and hostility. This is Phil Anselmo's (ex-Pantera, Superjoint Ritual, Down) first record on his own label, Housecore Records. Arson Anthem also features Mike IX Williams (EyeHateGod, Outlaw Order), (Assjack, Superjoint Ritual) and Collin Yeo. The project was actually born and completed in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina when Williams moved in with Anselmo and they spent hours listening to Anselmo's collection of early hardcore bands. Their mission is to re-introduce the roots of painful amplification, raw production, and an attitude to a movement within a new generation that's lost the meaning of less complicated ventures. Phil Anselmo isn't even the vocalist for his latest project - he's the guitarist. He left the front man duties to Eyehategod's fresh-from-prison Mike Williams. 8 tracks. Housecore Records. 2008.
