Yeah I’m not into this. Seems like there’s thrash that hits certain niches for me and this doesn’t satisfy any of them. Ah well. My initial foray was probably accurate.

Suppose I’m not the biggest lover of ‘pure’ thrash anyway

I genuinely am not a huge fan of Anthrax overall, but this album is one of their stronger records. That being said im in the Bush > Belladonna camp

"I’m only 20 minutes in (2nd attempt, long break) and it sounds like I’ve been listening to the same riff the whole time"

This is an issue I have with a lot of thrash metal, but I find Anthrax to be especially grating because of Belladonna's cheesy, off-key shouted vocals and the cringe hip-hop bollocks. The riffs are also insanely generic to me. It's like they're a parody thrash band that takes all the genre tropes to a comedic level.

Belladonna is really annoying tbh. The bass is the standout here

Yeah the vox are definitely not good

I think Mustaine’s just improved for me simply by association… y’know in a ‘well it could be worse’ sort of way 😄

Yeah Mustaine is a great vocalist. I dont get why Belladonna gets so much love, Bush was a FAR better singer. Seriously if you havent heard it Demon, listen to the rerecording of I Am The Law with him. It sounds a million times better although his vocal production feels a bit disconnected with the rest of the band

Nah I genuinely do enjoy this album, but not Anthrax overall. That being said, the comeback stuff was good fun, Worship Music especially.

But I cant give this album anymore than a 3.5 on principle I feel like. The songs are fun, but FUN is the word, not good. Joeys vocals whilst different for thrash, arent that great

I like Spreading The Disease much more, but this is still sick. But sadly Anthrax will always be the lamest of the major thrash bands to me
