The as-yet-untitled CD, which is being produced by guitarist Thaen Rasmussen and vocalist/ bassist Aaron Zimpel, follows the Rockadrome Records release "The Killing Sun", featuring re-recorded versions of many of the classic early-Eighties demo songs widely traded in the metal underground.

The new ANVIL CHORUS album will include the following songs:

* Deadland * Fall for Anything * Solar Flux * Blood Memory * Burn Forever * Senses Alive * Colossus * 20 Second Century * Moonstroke

"The Killing Sun" came out in September 2009 via Rockadrome Records. The CD featured a 16-page color booklet with liner notes written by San Francisco metal legend Ron Quintana (KUSF radio, Metal Mania fanzine) and cover art by Mark Devito (MOTÖRHEAD), packed with lyrics, photos and memories.
