As previously posted, Canadian metallers ANVIL are due to release their forthcoming album, “Hope In Hell” on May 27th in Europe and May 24th in Germany on SPV / Steamhammer and will be available in four different formats: as a limited-edition digipak including two bonus tracks, as a jewel case CD, double gatefold colored vinyl LP and as download. These are the first cuts featuring ANVIL‘s new bassist Sal Italiano, who joined the band a year ago. “We’re really happy with Sal, his style is powerful and amazingly imaginative. It’s a little as if we’d enlisted Steve Harris,” enthuses guitarist/vocalist Steve ‘Lips’ Kudlow, who composed the whole album together with drums legend Robb Reiner.
The band has also reveal the release date for “Hope In Hell” in North America which is on May 28th. Also ANVIL has posted a new teaser clip for this album which can be seen below:
