Friday Five-Fer - ANTHRAX!

[Squirrel Man]

One of my favorite bands. Great band and Charlie Benante is an amazing drummer. Even if you don't like thrash metal you would have a difficult time making the case that they're not fantastic.

I liked the John Bush era ……

[Tornado]

I loved them back then. I miss metal drums that sound like they were played by a human being.

Charlie seems like a down to earth guy as well …….

Did you know Joey Belladonna fronts a Journey tribute band?

I loved them back then. I miss metal drums that sound like they were played by a human being.

These albums are basically live albums in the studio. They may have edits but it was an actual guy cutting tape with a razor blade. It doesn't get much more metal than that. When I saw bands live back in the 1980s and 1990s most of the time they sounded either just like or even better than their recordings.

Check out the XL release. It’s all live recordings. Like actually live. Charlie’s a monster

I had a bit of an Anthrax phase when I was a teenager. I'm quite surprised to see a tune from Fistful of metal... wow that drawing is a blast from the past!!!!
My favorite song of theirs was I am the law ( was a big original Judge Dredd comics fan). I also really liked Got the time.

Anthrax was in constant rotation in my life when I was in middle school. Among the Living, State of Euphoria...and yes....even Attack of the Killer B's!!!!
