Hardcore punk Arson Anthem has announced the release of their first full-length LP, Insecurity Notoriety, out October 12th via Housecore Records.
The group is composed of metal legends Philip H. Anselmo (Pantera, Down, Superjoint Ritual), Hank Williams III (Superjoint Ritual, Assjack), Mike IX Williams (Outlaw Order, Eyehategod), and Collin Yeo (Ponykiller). “I’m not sure what it is… but when Hank III, Colin, Mike and I get into “Arson” mode, time stops. We know the mission is to write unforgiving hardcore inspired by a slew of ’80’s bands… but the result is its own animal, yet not too terrible removed from the genuine article,” describes Anselmo. “With that said, Insecurity Notoriety is like listening to an old favorite blast from the skanking past… vicious, snotty, grating and anthemic! I know it’s typical to call a modern-day hardcore band ‘fresh’ or ‘different’, especially when it’s your band, but… it is! This effort makes our first EP sound like child’s play, as it should. Play it over and over! Piss everyone off!”
