Biography

Essentially an attempt by former Pantera frontman (and frontman for Superjoint Ritual and Down) Phil Anselmo to revisit the days of ‘pure' hardcore, Arson Anthem (which not only harnessed the hardcore sound, but wrapped it in with a healthy dose of sludge) released their debut EP, the eight track Arson Anthem, in 2008. The band featured Anselmo on guitar, with Eyehategod's Mike Williams taking vocal duties, Collin Yeo on bass, and one Hank Williams III manning the traps. The band was signed to Housecore records, a label started by Anselmo for his side projects. ~ Chris True, All Music Guide

Arson Anthem is an American hardcore punk band, formed in New Orleans in 2006. The lineup comprises singer Mike Williams of Eyehategod), guitarist Phil Anselmo of Pantera, Down and Superjoint Ritual), country musician, punk rocker and Assjack frontman Hank Williams III on drums, and bassist Collin Yeo.

After losing all his possessions in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Mike Williams moved into Anselmo's spare apartment. The two spent countless hours listening to Phil’s collection of early hardcore bands. They began jamming with Hank III and Collin Yeo, who were united by their desire to have a hardcore punk band of their very own.[1]

According to Williams, the group spent six days in Houston, Texas recording eight songs in the spring of 2006. Their self-titled debut album was released on February 19, 2008.

YouTube hosts a video of Arson Anthem performing live at The Howlin' Wolf, in New Orleans, LA, as well as at Vino's Brew Pub in Little Rock, AR.
