Anthrax is set to release new music for the first time in about 10 years, announcing the lead single “It’s for the Kids,” scheduled to come out this Friday. The track is described as the opening release from the band’s long-awaited new album, Cursum Perficio. The announcement positions the single as a preview of the forthcoming record and marks a return after the band’s previous album-era gap. Billboard reports that Anthrax’s most recent studio album before the upcoming release was For All Kings, released in 2016. Consequence of Sound similarly frames “It’s for the Kids” as Anthrax’s first new song in a decade, tied directly to the new album project. Together, the outlets confirm the title and release timing of the single, identify it as the lead track from the new album, and note the band’s last album release date as 2016.
