I chose "Spreading The Disease". "Among The Living" a close second. I agree with FatFreddy about John Bush era Anthrax. After that "Bring The Noise" rap crap fiasco had already left a bad taste in my mouth, the announced departure of Belladonna and his announced replacement Bush was the nail in the coffin for me. I was a fan of Armored Saint so it wasn't nothing personal against Bush. He just didn't seem like he should be in Anthrax.

 

Now... I was bored and roaming around a local record convention awhile back and someone was selling the Bush era CDs for like 4 for 10.00 or something like that. So I went and bought them all. I got "Sound Of White Noise", "Stomp 442", "Volume 8: The Threat Is Real", and "We've Come For You All". And I must say, they DO kick ass. Especially enjoyed the first Bush disc "Sound Of White Noise". "Room For One More" kicks ass!! :banger:

Glad to hear you like the Bush era 'Thrax.

 

I was a huge fan of Armored Saint 'Symbol of Salvation' so when it was announced that they were breaking up so John could join Anthrax I was pissed. After I heard Sound of White Noise I wasn't pissed anymore, and every since then I have stood up for the Bush era Anthrax. IMO they were the most consistent Metal band of the last 10-12 years. It's just a shame that many of the old fans wouldn't give it a chance. It's also a shame that they never got the proper support from the labels they were signed to. It really looked like good things were gonna happen with We've Come for you All and the single 'Safe Home' but for whatever reason it didn't happen for them. From interviews you can even tell Scott Ian and Charlie Benante wish John was still in the band and miss playing the Bush era songs.

Heaven and Hell, Safe Home did pretty well, considering it's Anthrax, I saw them perform Safe Home on Conan, and on the other late night show, with the dude that used to be a VJ on Mtv, the pretty boy, Carson whatever, they did an unplugged set of safe home and they kicked ass on that one, I don't know how good or bad the cd itself sold, but making the late night rounds counldnt have done it any harm! and for better or worse, it was great to hear the fans energetic reactions to the song, a lot of people still harbor the "Anthrax! don't they worship satan?" type of mentallity..

For me, it's pretty much a coin toss between "Sound of White Noise" and "We Have Come for you All." In the end, I went with "Sound of White Noise" simply because I got sick of wavering back and forth between the two. But really, can't go wrong with either one. Never did have much use for early Anthrax though...

Man... the were just showing the video for "Madhouse" off of "Spreading The Disease" on that VH1 show "The 100 Best Hard Rock Songs". It's was somewhere in the high 40's to low 50's. Anthrax ruled!!

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
