(antiMusic) Godsmack have dropped plans for a boxset to commemorate the group's 10th anniversary. They will release a less ambitious "best of" album instead which will reportedly include at least one new track and an unplugged DVD.

Drummer Shannon Larkin broke the news to the Winnipeg Sun. "We're scrapping the box set idea in favor of a best-of (album)," he said. "We realized that at this point, a box set would almost be a vanity thing... it wouldn't really benefit our fans at all. So instead we're going to do a best-of, add a new song or two, but definitely include a DVD of our acoustic show in Las Vegas."

In related news, the Ugly Kid Godsmack side project, Another Animal, that features Larkin along with Godsmack guitarist Tommy Rombola and bassist Robbie Merrill with former Ugly Kid Joe singer Whitfield Crane have been added as the headliner of the side stage at this year's X-Fest which will take place October 6th in Noblesville, Indiana. At press time the group's debut album is scheduled to hit stores October 2nd with the first single "Broken Again" already at radio and for sale at iTunes.
