Anthrax Thread

My first Anthrax purchase was Among The Living on vinyl.  That one and State of Euphoria are my two favorites from them.  I also really got a kick out of I'm The Man EP when it was released.  I'm not as big of a fan of the John Bush years. As a matter of fact Fistful of Metal and Armed and Dangerous are the two CDs that I don't have from them; I do seem to remember having a cassette copy of A Fistful of Metal, that I pirated from a friend, back before pirating became a known bad thing.

When I first got into Anthrax, I heard their cover of the Beastie Boy's "Looking Down The Barrel of a Gun" on The Beavis and Butthead Experience.  I didn't even know it was a cover, so I bought the first Anthrax album I could find expecting to hear a Beastie Boys styled rap-metal thing.  I didn't.  I grabbed Volume 8, and "Crush" absolutely ripped my 14 year old head right off.

I do enjoy John Bush's output, but Joey Belladonna is the best there is for Anthrax

^^^ I really like that first Anthrax album it's like Iron Maiden on steroids . Fantastic piece of work even though it might not be their best
