After much speculation that Slipknot/Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor will be the latest singer for Thrash Metal veterans Anthrax, Blabbermouth is reporting that Corey Taylor has confirmed that he is working with Anthrax on their upcoming album. Apparently Corey had the following to say to the German Rock Hard magazine: "It's been banded about. I'm not saying anything right now because all it's been is just talked about. Obviously, I'm really good friends with those guys. It kind of started as a joke. And then the more we talked about it, the more serious it got. I'm gonna at least help them out. It's kind of a dream come true — ANTHRAX is one of my favorite bands. We're just kind of taking baby steps right now. I know that we worked on about eight or nine songs together that I've written lyrics for, and there was a song that I had actually written for them that I was just gonna give them the music for, and once this kind of happened, I had to turn around and write lyrics for it myself. But there's nothing definite right now. It's one of those things where it's like we're just gonna kind of play it by ear and just see what happens. So there's nothing definite. It's something that we're talking about — it's something that we kind of wanna do. But I'm in two huge bands right now. So it's like I barely get enough time to sleep, let alone do another band. . . I'm gonna be busy, period. I'm just kind of honored that they would even consider me. These are people that I grew up listening to, these are guys that I had the privilege of getting to know on a real basis. To have them look at me and go, 'You know what? We would love to work with you,' it's such a huge compliment. It kind of makes me feel like I've come a long way in my life."

So we still have to wait until the end of the month for the band to make it official? It appears that Anthrax is only working with one singer right now, so the question begs to be asked; Does it make sense for the band to choose another singer at this point? With Corey Taylor already involved in two other successful bands, it looks like the Anthrax job will be his to turn down at this point.
