If that's true... DAMMIT TOM!
Why do xians like to ruin all things that don't suck?
Slayer has stayed the course throughout their entire career, that's why they have such a large following unlike Anthrax..no rap songs i.e. "I'm the Man" or "Bring the Noise". When Slayer worked with a rap artist, Ice-T, they didn't put record scratching or sampling on the song, they made it hard core, they made it Slayer. Also, Anthrax has yet to make an album that could come close to the intensity of Reign in Blood. I let my friends' 12 year old son listen to Reign in Blood and he was blown the fuck away by an album that was released in 1986. Can't say that Among the Living would do the same......

Ice-T is a well known metalhead! He once said his most favourite song was Angel Of Death. He didn´t use any scratching or sampling in BodyCount. And Disorder kicks ass!!!!

Tom is a Catholic, he's stated that many times in interviews.

Slayer have just opened up an entirly new fan base for themselfs. They just finished touring with Slipnot, and all there 16+ wannabe goth fans have started to get into them from those gigs. If you go to a Slayer gig youll find a bigger number of young kids than at Anthrax ones.
Anthrax's legacy will sadly be a band who didn't know how to expand their fanbase, nor keep their die-hards happy.Ragman_kd said:
Slayer have mastered both, by being the AC/DC or Ramones of metal. The formula sure as hell ain't broke, and they make great album after great album. They don't change labels every album, and they are not afraid to play with Slipknot or Ozzfest to get new fans. They never bitch about their audiences, and they don't change members with every album.

all of this may be true but I have always found (Bush) Anthrax way more energetic onstage than Slayer.
Yes. And chances are we won't see that line-up anytime soon. Chances are we won't see any Anthrax anytime soon IMHO. This reunion isn't exactly earthshattering. Unless pissing off your core fans who stuck by you shatters the earth.johnnieCzech said:

Yeah, (Bush) Anthrax may be way more energetic onstage than Slayer but it is what's going on in the crowd that counts and whether it is Bush or Belladonna, Lord help us, Slayers' crowd is where it is at.johnnieCzech said:
