My musical tastes vary quite a bit. I'm not one of those people locked into a genre and tell other people the stuff they listen to sucks. I mean, i listen to everything from classical to even "regular rock"....hell..i like old Country too...
I remember back in...oh jeez...1994 or '95 ...The Misfits were co-headlining with Anthrax. i had been in the miltary for quite a few years and had become somewhat disjointed from the new shit that had been coming out for a few years. I had heard that John Bush was the new singer...and since I had the 1st Armored Saint album, well...I thought that Bush and Anthrax was an odd mix. I can't say i liked it. Anyway, Anthrax opened up for the 'fits on this date...I heard they were rotating the headlining. I was not impressed with Anthrax...while the music sounded great, I did not like the way John sang the Joey songs. IMHO, it just didn't fit. But hey...that's just my opinion. I never purchased any of the Bushthrax albums, and I was stoked when Joey came back. ...fuckers didn't hit Dallas on the reunion tour..so I didn't get to see it...but oh well...that's life.
I don't think Anthrax owes me anything...hell..they don't owe anyone anything. I guess slagging on other bands' styles (just my opinion, mind you) is somewhat juvenile at best. It reminds me of when I was in high school back in the 80's where people would get in pissing contests about which band was better.
...as for "Why am i here?" ...i peruse the boards and I do occasionally post in this forum. Don't know why you even asked the question. when you post something on a board - it is there for scrutiny. Some responses may be good, some may be bad - it comes with the territory. Don't post something if you aren't prepared for a negative response. As a person that runs a couple of messageboards, I know this. Some people may not.
Take it as you will....
Peace...
