John Bush Says He Will Not Be Rejoining Anthrax

posted Sep 29, 2005 at 1:34 PM by deathbringer.  (7 Comments)

Totalrock is reporting that vocalist John Bush told them that he will not be returning to Anthrax. After 13 years with the band, the singer had to step aside earlier this year, when his predecessor Joey Belladonna re-joined the band for a re-union tour featuring what many regard as their classic line-up. But, until now, Bush has remained silent about whether he would consider a return. Now, he's publicly stated that he will move on.

This isn't much different from his previous statement, but sounds a little more definite, leaving less doubt.

Looks like Ian and Charlie gave Bush the shaft. They will beg him to be back when Belladonna falls apart.

what the hell??? this is a BIG MISTAKE for Anthrax, i won't be surprised when they'll disband after a couple of years. Bush is ANTHRAX, not belladona. tsk, tsk, tsk. where ever john's going, i'm sure his fans will follow. suck it up CHARLIE and SCOTT! it's a mistake, you know it is. 80's metal is sooo passe, Bush made ANTHRAX greater, now you guys are just plain lousy.

Personally I worship Anthrax, but this just seems like John Bush has been shafted. Were it not for him doing what he does over the last 10 years then Anthrax would be dead and buried. Hope they know what they are doing, seems like one big pay-day to me...

I love old Anthrax with Joey, and I even loved Anthrax when John joined, but "Sound of White Noise" was Anthrax's "Black Album" in my opinion. Anything after that just didn't cut it.
