Listen To Philip H. Anslemo And The Illegals’ First Single [Audio]

Phil Anselmo is a metal legend. Of course he fronted Pantera, Down (be listening to win tix to their HOB show May 22), and Superjoint Ritual...now he's ready to venture out on kind of solo career. Philip H. Anselmo and the Illegals have released their first single titled, 'Usurper's Bastard Rant'. Keep reading to see what Phil had to say, and listen to the song.

From Rolling Stone:

Anselmo explains that the song was inspired by how watered-down music has become and the number of "sound-alikes" that exist in the industry. "Traditions were meant to be celebrated and/or destroyed. The celebration is worn out in my view," Anselmo tells Rolling Stone. "It's time for more destruction, and this is exactly the point of 'Usurper Bastard's Rant.'"

The album, Walk Through Exits Only, is set to be released July 16th.
