Linkin Park launching ‘From Zero’ pop-up shop in Brazil

$Scott Ian is opening up about a grueling physical ordeal that left him performing at a fraction of his usual capacity. In a new interview with Metal Injection, the Anthrax guitarist revealed he suffered a severe back injury during the band’s set on the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise, which sailed from Miami to Nassau between January 29 and February 2, 2026. The injury was triggered by the "brutal" environmental conditions during the band's outdoor performance on the ship's Pool Deck Stage. Ian explained that the combination of high winds and freezing temperatures caused his muscles to seize up while on stage. By the next day, the guitarist described the pain as "debilitating," requiring him to seek immediate medical attention on the vessel. Despite the injury, Ian pushed forward to complete the band's subsequent tour dates in Canada, admitting that he was "maybe 40%" at his best while struggling to move. Ian credited the medical staff for helping him manage the inflammation through a series of treatments and injections. While the recovery process forced him to temper his legendary high-energy stage presence, the thrash icon is now focused on physical therapy to ensure he is fully recovered for Anthrax's upcoming Australian tour and the final mixing of their long-awaited new studio album, tentatively due in May 2026. #ScottIan #Anthrax #70000TonsOfMetal #ThrashMetal #MetalNews #GuitaristLife #RockHealth #Anthrax2026 #BigFour$
