Guitarist talks about the project
Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian has announced that he will release a memoir next year. The book, titled "I'm The Man," will recount his life journey from a boy in Queens to one of the most respected metal guitarists.
"I think many people can relate to my story. If I managed to have the life I wanted for myself, I think everyone can.".
The guitarist said he was excited about the idea, adding that the process should be therapeutic. He further stated: "Besides, if I don't start writing now, I'll forget everything without having shared these stories with you! "
Anthrax is currently working on a new album. The band's last release was "Anthems," an EP of covers released in March of this year. Their most recent album of original material was "Worship Music," in 2011.
