Many metal fans first learned about Anvil via the 2008 documentary Anvil! The Story of Anvil. However, guitarist/vocalist Steve “Lips” Kudlow and drummer Robb Reiner have been recording and touring together now for well over three decades now. And on May 28, the Canadian thrash legends will release their 15th studio album (also their first with bassist Sal Italiano) titled Hope In Hell via The End Records.

Before the album comes out, though, we have the exclusive premiere of the song “Mankind Machine.” Let’s just say that if you love Anvil, or metal in general for that matter, you’ll totally dig this song. Listen to “Mankind Machine” in the video below, and if you’re in New Jersey this weekend, catch Anvil at the Old Bridge Metal Militia’s benefit show for Hurricane Sandy victims on Saturday.
