## Resource

Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante’s sidelined by hand injury, missing key European dates from June 20 to July 4, but don’t panic—drummer Darby Todd, who already filled in for him at tour kickoff, is stepping up to keep the rhythm alive. Big festivals like Hellfest and Copenhell, plus Iron Maiden support gigs, are on pause, but Benante’s back on deck for Lisbon July 7. Todd’s got serious chops, having toured with heavyweights before—so fans can rest easy knowing the groove stays locked tight while Charlie heals up.
