Anthrax Brews Up a Storm: Exclusive Coffee Collaboration Unveiled
The metal titans ANTHRAX are cranking up the hype machine ahead of the September 18 release of their long-anticipated twelfth studio album, "Cursum Perficio." In a bold move that fuses caffeine with chaos, the band has teamed up with Dark Matter Coffee to unleash a limited-edition brew that promises to be as rich and complex as their music.
The "Cursum Perficio" coffee blend, featuring a washed process Catuai from Nicaragua, is designed to deliver a sweet and nutty experience. Dark Matter Coffee describes it as having been roasted to perfection, enhancing the caramelized sugars for a toastier flavor profile. To elevate this audacious concoction, they’ve infused it with beans from the Pacas Family in El Salvador, resulting in a chocolatey delight with a refreshing citrus undertone. It's the kind of brew that'll keep you energized as you headbang through the night.
Available in various configurations including whole bean and multiple grind options, this coffee is poised to elevate your morning routine—or night-time ritual, depending on how deep into the metal you go. ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante can’t get enough of it, claiming it pairs perfectly with their classic tracks like "Schism" and "Devil You Know." Now that’s what we call a brew fit for metal royalty.
Mark your calendars, metalheads! To commemorate the release of "Cursum Perficio," ANTHRAX will be hosting a late-night signing session in Louisville, Kentucky, right after their performance at the illustrious Louder Than Life festival. Starting at 12:01 a.m. on September 18, the band will be at Guestroom Records, ready to scrawl their names on copies of the new album. But don’t just waltz in; you’ll need to pre-order your copy to snag a spot. Space is limited, and trust us, you won't want to miss this chance to meet the legends.
After a decade-long wait since their last release, "For All Kings," the anticipation for "Cursum Perficio" is palpable. The Latin title translates to "My journey has come to an end," and with the band diving deep into their roots while pushing their sound forward, fans can expect an aggressive and vibrant offering that pays homage to their storied legacy. Recorded at Dave Grohl's Studio 606, this album may just redefine what you expect from ANTHRAX.
