07-098-2026
Ahead of the September 18 release of ANTHRAX‘s long-awaited twelfth full-length studio album “Cursum Perficio”, the band has have announced a collaboration with Dark Matter Coffee for a special limited-edition Dark Matter Coffee x Anthrax “Cursum Perficio” brew.
The base of the “Cursum Perficio” coffee is “a washed process Catuai from Nicaragua that has been roasted with a little more heat to caramelize the sugars and bring out more toastiness, maintaining a sweet, nutty cup,” the company notes. “We paired the Catuai with coffee from the Pacas Family in El Salvador, a blend of Bourbon and Pacas beans that come from several farms in the Santa Ana region, which go through a washed process at the Cafe Tuxpal mill. This coffee has a lot of chocolatey notes in the cup, with a hint of citrus that comes through as it cools!”
Dark Matter Coffee x Anthrax “Cursum Perficio” is available in the following configurations:
* Bagged (Whole Bean, Drip Coffee Grind, Espresso Grind, Press Pot Grind, Pour Over Grind): 12oz
* Coffee Cold 8-Pack
“With ‘Cursum Perficio’, we have a blend of Central American washed coffees from Nicaragua and El Salvador that produce a piping hot mug of chocolatey and nutty notes balanced by a sweet citrus finish,” says ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante. “This blend sits nicely next to my ‘Schism’ and the ‘Devil You Know’ blends from Dark Matter.”
ANTHRAX has recently released the official music video for “Everybody’s Got A Plan”, the third single from the band’s upcoming “Cursum Perficio” album. The clip includes footage of ANTHRAX‘s recent performance at Lisbon, Portugal’s Estádio do Sport Lisboa e Benfica as the support act for IRON MAIDEN.

“Everybody’s Got A Plan” follows the previously released singles “It’s For The Kids”, which came out in May, and “The Edge Of Perfection”, which was made available in July.
“‘Everybody’s Got A Plan’ has always been one of my favorite songs on ‘Cursum Perficio’,” ANTHRAX drummer Charlie Benante said. “The video basically shows the band on and off stage in a montage of video clips that kinda matches the velocity of the song. The line ‘Everybody’s got a plan until they get punched in the face’ is such a great line, and so true!”
ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian added: “We wanted to capture us having fun on tour and what better way to do that? That was a plan that didn’t end up with a punch in the face! Have fun watching, my friends!”
