Anthrax, The Cult, Armored Saint Supergroup Releasing New Album

. (Classic Rock) A supergroup featuring Anthrax mainman Scott Ian and his wife Pearl Aday are to release their debut album in March. Motor Sister also features The Cult drummer John Tempesta and Armored Saint bassist Joey Vera and they'll issue debut Ride via Metal Blade Records on March 10.

The project came about after a jam session at Ian's house which saw him and some friends perform covers of Mother Superior songs in celebration of his 50th birthday in December 2013.

Mother Superior were Henry Rollins' backing band until 2003 and Ian and Aday are big fans of their work. Ride features covers of some of Ian's favorite Mother Superior tracks.

Ian tells Radio.com: "There's a band called Mother Superior that you've probably heard of. It was Jim Wilson's band, he's been Daniel Lanois's bass player for years. Jim and Pearl are writing partners, they've written all of Pearl's solo material together." Read more here.
