Texas Thrash Metal pioneers RIGOR MORTIS will team up with ARSON ANTHEM – the new band featuring Philip Anselmo (DOWN, ex-PANTERA) on guitar, Mike Williams (EYEHATEGOD) on vocals, Hank Williams III (SUPERJOINT RITUAL) on drums and Collin Yeo on bass – for three shows in December. RIGOR MORTIS will perform with its original line-up consisting of Bruce Corbitt (TEXAS METAL ALLIANCE), Mike Scaccia (MINISTRY, REVOLTING COCKS), Casey Orr (MITRA, GWAR, X-COPS, THE HELLIONS, THE BURDEN BROTHERS) and Harden Harrison (MITRA, PERVIS, SPEEDEALER). These three dates mark ARSON ANTHEM’s first official performances ever, and due to the hectic touring schedules of the members involved, might turn out to be the group’s only appearances for awhile.

Displeased Records will reissue the first two MASTER albums; both will be remastered and will include a DVD with a full gig.
