unfixed ...

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

No, no it's Fistfull of Metal!

 

[baldyboy]

among the living for the songs,the production sucks donkey balls tho,someone deserved to be shot for that.

 

[Dee Snarl]

ATL, then STD.

But I'm biased. As a teen, ATL was a HUGE album for me, right up there with Master of Puppets.

 

[EVERLOSTINDEADETERNITY]

Spreading The Disease followed by THE HIGHLY UNDERRATED VOLUME 8!!! Damn that album is so good and gets not mention.

I didn't think it quite reached the brilliance of Master of Puppets, but they came out close to each other, give or take, and I remember thinking the future of metal was pretty bright at that point....and I really did love Among the Living. The previous albums were okay too. After that, I think Anthrax pretty much fell into constant mediocrity though. They are a band, in my view, who never lived up to their promise. Just a huge string of mediocre albums that appealed to me in no way. If you could go back in time to ATL, you'd think, "man, I expect big things for this band....." just didn't happen musically, and because of that, their success was always middle of the road as well.

Yeah, big letdown after ATL, IMO.

Never came close to recapturing the magic, as it were.

And don't even talk to me about Persistence of Time. Tight, proficient thrash with nary an interesting feature, melodically, lyrically, anywhere.

 

[King Size]

Spreading The Disease, Among The Living, Persistence Of Time & Sound Of White Noise are all great CD's.

 

[SickBoy]

State Of Euphoria
And I'm the only one saying that

 

[Wyvern]

What do you mean? Read my post above

 

[Puckfiend]

Bush Era - Sound of White Noise

Belladona Era -Among the Living

Concur.

 

[Bryant]

Although I didn't think the Bush era was very good at all as a whole, I think "Sound of White Noise" was the best Anthrax had to offer and was pretty kick ass.
