Anthrax seems to be very underrated, I don't see them talked about nearly as much as the other 3 of the big 4 of thrash Tongue

So what are your personal favorite Anthrax albums or songs if any? Smile

My favorite albums are Persistence of Time, Worship Music, and Spreading the Disease

You know, I should really write some Anthrax reviews now LOL

I´m not the greatest fan, but I do enjoy Anthrax in moderate doses. The two albums above are the ones that have had most impact on me.

I agree, they do deserve some more recognition. I haven't listened to them TOO much but very much like from what I DID hear! Have to give them more more spins more often!Thumbs Up

I'm in the great minority, but I've always been bigger on John Bush than I have the Joey years.  That being said, I do like many of the songs they did in that time.

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.  Cool

You definitely are in the minority with that statement Cool

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

So glad he came back with 'Worship Music' Cool

I was introduced to Anthrax through "Sound of White Noise". I never really enjoyed or listened much to Anthrax when I started listening to thrash metal (late eighties/early nineties), even though I listened to most other Classic thrash metal acts from that era. I can´t remember why, but maybe it was their "fun" image I wasn´t attracted to back then. All I wanted was death and destruction LOL. I like Anthrax a lot more these days, but I´ll probably never be a huge fan.

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.
