Frank Bello , bassist for Anthrax , has announced that he will release his first solo EP. Titled Then I'm Gone , the work will arrive on November 4th and is already available for pre-order.
Then I'm Gone will have six tracks and will be released on vinyl with three bonus tracks, as well as excerpts from his 2021 autobiography, narrated by himself. Bello said the EP came about after writing the book.
“I revisited a lot of heavy stuff about my life while writing my book, and writing these songs [for the EP] was the result of that healing. Music has always been how I deal with things. I thought now was the perfect time to share these songs with those who connected with the book, and even with those who haven't read it yet.”
The autobiography, Fathers, Brothers, and Sons: Surviving Anguish, Abandonment, and Anthrax, dealt with Bello's diverse experiences, but especially the death of his brother and his search for the killer.
