Hear Philip H. Anselmo & the Illegals' Explosive New Album in Full

'Choosing Mental Illness as a Virtue' is 50 minutes of gnarly, expansive extreme metal

We're still one day away from the release of Choosing Mental Illness as a Virtue, former Pantera vocalist Phil Anselmo's excoriating second album alongside his solo band the Illegals, but the whole thing is available to stream in full, right here, right now. Listen below — and turn that shit up! Above, you can watch a Revolver-produced live music video for standout cut "Finger Me" — a song that the singer dedicates to "all the fucking moralist bloggers that try to police fucking music these days" — which was filmed at Anselmo's recording studio Nödferatu's Lair in December 2017.

Choosing Mental Illness as a Virtue hits shelves January 26th via Anselmo's Housecore Records label in the U.S., and Season of Mist in Europe. You can snag the digital version here.

Below, watch Phil Anselmo and Rex Brown join Anthrax for a rousing rendition of Pantera's "This Love," plus the opening to Slayer's "Raining Blood" in honor of Jeff Hanneman.
