ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE, the project featuring ANTHRAX bassist Frank Bello and MEGADETH bassist David Ellefson, will release its debut album, “Get It Out”, on January 18, 2019 via Megaforce. The follow-up to ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE‘s 2014 self-titled EP was once again produced by Jay Ruston (ANTHRAX, STEEL PANTHER, STONE SOUR), with Jeff Friedl (A PERFECT CIRCLE, ASHES DIVIDE) returning behind the kit.
The official lyric video for the disc’s first single, “Out Here”, created by by Melody Myers of Designed By Melody, can be seen below. The track, which features a guest appearance by ANTHRAX guitarist Jon Donais, will be available on Spotify starting tomorrow (Friday, October 12).
A kind of rock ‘n’ roll primal-scream therapy, “Get It Out” is the result of nearly four years of writing and recording sessions — and decades of touring, searching, striving and living. “I’ve learned that writing songs is very cathartic,” says Bello, who has long made songwriting a daily practice. When ANTHRAX is off the road, he tries out new material at open mics around New York City. “A lot of these lyrics are about the inner struggles of my life, and about the rage that has built up from my life experiences — my brother’s murder; my father abandoning my family when we were young, leaving us with no funds to pay the bills,” he says. “The ups and downs of life in general. I’ve always had an anger inside that music really helps me deal with.”
“The album has the perfect title,” Ellefson adds. “This is music that has been living inside of us for so long. There’s a big musical part of each of us that doesn’t get heard anywhere else.”
Boasting a deep bench of guest stars, including Ace Frehley (ex-KISS; the track “Late”), Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE, FIREWIND), Nita Strauss (ALICE COOPER), Christian Martucci (STONE SOUR) and Satchel (STEEL PANTHER), the record also represents the fulfillment of a lifelong but little-known ambition for two uniquely gifted artists. As Bello puts it, “All I ever wanted to do was write good songs. I’ve always been a melody guy. I love hooks; I love catchy songs with a good riff.”
The ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE story begins in 2010, when Bello and Ellefson started touring together to lead bass clinics for the amp manufacturer Hartke. In need of backing tracks to support their demonstrations, they embarked upon some writing sessions and discovered their chemistry.
Bello and Ellefson debuted ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE in early 2014, with a self-titled three-song EP that earned the duo airplay on SiriusXM and an appearance on VH1 Classic‘s “That Metal Show”. Those tracks — “Booze and Cigarettes”, “Tell the World”, “Here Again” — are included on “Get It Out” as bonus cuts, in remixed and remastered form.
Ellefson explains that “ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE could have only happened at this moment in time” — when the titans of thrash metal’s “Big Four” are older, wiser, kinder and more open creatively. “When you’re still climbing up the hill,” he says, “there’s no room for friendly competition. But once you’ve been to the top of the hill and you’ve seen the view — which all of the ‘Big Four’ have — it’s okay to break bread, hang out, have a drink.” Or, in the case of ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE, delve into hard-rock songwriting in a profound way. “To hear other sides of us as artists — not just as musicians and performers, but as artists.”
ALTITUDES & ATTITUDE has several shows booked in early 2019, including on the ShipRocked cruise in late January.
