Armored Saint vocalist John Bush is taking a major piece of his musical history across the Atlantic.
Next year, Bush will bring his “John Bush Sings the Songs of Anthrax 1993 to 2003” show to Europe and the UK for the first time. Dubbed the “European Stomp Tour,” the trek will see the legendary vocalist revisit some of the most memorable material from his decade long run with Anthrax.
The European and UK dates will feature songs spanning four Anthrax albums that Bush recorded during his time with the band: 1993’s “Sound of White Noise” 1995’s “Stomp 442” 1998’s “Volume 8: The Threat Is Real” and 2003’s “We’ve Come for You All”
For longtime Anthrax fans, the shows promise to be a trip back to an important chapter in the band’s history, when Bush’s powerful vocals helped define Anthrax’s sound throughout the 1990s and into the early 2000s.
Bush is clearly excited to finally take the show overseas, saying:
“EUROPA! I’ve come for you all!!! It is finally time to bring the John Bush sings the songs of Anthrax 1993 to 2003 show to the heavy metal continent and some of the best fans in the world.
He continued:
“Looking forward to playing some awesome festivals and some headline shows as well. Cranking out songs from those four records (Sound of White Noise, Stomp 442, Volume 8: The Threat Is Real and We’ve Come For You All). Wherever you are, come out, sing loud and let’s do it!!”
Bush’s Anthrax era produced some of the band’s most celebrated material, including fan favourites such as “Only” “Room for One More” “Fueled” “Inside Out” “Catharsis” “Crush” “What Doesn’t Die” and “Taking the Music Back”
The “European Stomp Tour” gives fans across Europe and the UK their first opportunity to experience Bush performing this collection of Anthrax classics live in this dedicated format.
With festival appearances and headline shows planned, John Bush is ready to crank up the volume and take fans back to the Anthrax years of 1993 to 2003.
Get ready to sing loud.
