In a brief e-mail, ANVIL's singer/guitarist Steve “Lips” Kudlow wrote that the follow-up to 2007's This is Thirteen has been written but not recorded.
A producer has not been selected, but Lips is hoping to land master knob-twirler Chris Tsangarides again. Tsangarides produced “Metal on Metal” in 1982, as well as “This is Thirteen”.
The CD, “Juggernaut of Justice”, still has no release date.
What can fans expect from the new material? Lips simply said: “More ANVIL!”
