"Juggernaut Of Justice", a brand new song from Canadian heavy metallegends ANVIL, is available for free download as part of The End Records' spring 2011 sampler at this location.

"Juggernaut Of Justice" is the title track of ANVIL's new album, due on May 10 via The End Records. The CD was recorded at Dave 
Grohl's (NIRVANAFOO FIGHTERSStudio 606 in Northridge, California with famed producer Bob Marlette (BLACK SABBATHAIRBOURNEFILTER,ATREYUALICE COOPER). Prior to the arrival of the new album, The Endwill release the definitive ANVIL anthology. The collection will be comprised of classics old and new, with some surprises, and will showcase the band's entire career spanning back to 1978.

Commented ANVIL singer/guitarist Steve "Lips" Kudlow: "I must say that this is by far the best ANVIL ever. There will be a few new surprises including [bassist] Glenn 5's first lead vocals in ANVIL's history. The production that Bob Marlette has done far surpasses anything we've done in the past. The excitement within the band is over the top and we can't wait to unleash this amazing cd to the fans."

Drummer Robb Reiner concurred, "The new album is pure ANVIL with a new fresh kick, very exciting. 

"Looking to rocking with The End, putting the music where it belongs � in everybody's ears and face!"

In a 2009 interview with Suite101.comReiner stated about the group's forthcoming CD, "It's going to be the best album we've ever done. We've invented a new genre; we've invented metal-jazz . . . We've pioneered something that I believe is going to be revolutionary. I'm a jazz drummer: the world knows that I just happen to be in a metal band. And Lips listens to a lot of old-time swing jazz these days." Lips added, "I've been getting into Benny Goodman and Gene Krupa, really fast swing. It's really similar to speed metal, it's just that it's done with horns." Reiner continued, "We play this stuff live right now, and it blows people away beyond anything I've ever seen. We've innocently created something that's never been done before."

ANVIL is currently planning a world tour for 2011 in support of"Juggernaut of Justice". Details will be announced shortly.

ANVIL's re-release of the group's latest album, "This is Thirteen", sold around 1,400 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 19 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

"This is Thirteen" was finally given proper national distribution on CD and vinyl in September 2009 via VH1 Classic Records. The collectible double vinyl LP boasts newly re-recorded versions of ANVIL classics "Metal on Metal" and "666". The album, originally recorded in 2007 and produced byChris Tsangarides (JUDAS PRIESTTHIN LIZZY), was primarily available directly from the band via their web site and at their concerts.

ANVIL, considered a major influence for a generation of hard rockers including METALLICASLAYERANTHRAX, and GUNS N' ROSES, was the subject of a critically acclaimed, must-see rock-doc, "Anvil! The Story of Anvil", directed by Sacha Gervasi. And in the process, the film has made the group (led by Kudlow and Reiner � both founding members) a household name.
