(Classic Rock) Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante has been forced to sit out the band's upcoming tour of Australia, with "personal issues" preventing him from leaving home.

He'll be replaced again by Jon Dette, ex of Testament and Slayer, currently with Animetal USA. He manned the drumkit for Anthrax's European tour with Motorhead last year after Benante bowed out for similar reasons.

Guitarist Scott Ian reports: "Charlie is dealing with personal issues right now and can't leave. He's really bummer about not being able to head down there." more on this story
