1. Among The Living Entire album rules no fillers no bad songs
2. Persistence of Time Love the entire album. Favorites are Time, Discharge, Keep it In the Family
3. Spreading The Disease - hard to find anything I don't like. Medusa, Madhouse, Gung Ho amazing
4. State of Euphoria - Be all End All favorite. Some semi fillers
5. Fistful of Metal - Deathrider, Metal Thrashing Mad are the shit
6. Sound of White Noise - Don't really like much on this album but for Bushtrax is the best
7. We've come for you all - I like What doesn't Die... the rest i don't really want to hear ever again
8. Stomp 442 - don't like any of it but it 'Anthrax' so I have to list it
9. Volume 8. Inside out is listenable. Other than that this album is total garbage.

 

[Thrashard]

i can listen to their first 4 albums + SOWN without skipping a song, on POT there are some songs that i could do without and on the records that followed SOWN i can count the songs that i like on one maybe two hands.

 

[ShadowOfTheWave]

You can sit through This Is Not An Exit? I tried, that song is boring as fuck to me. Maybe I'll listen to it again.

 

[Thrashard]

TINAE was the song i didn't like on the album when White Noise was new, it's still not among my fav. tunes but i like it.



White Noise seems to be the most accepted Bushthrax-record among oldschoolers.

1. WCFYA (+ Any Place But Here, - Strap It On)
2. Volume 8 (+ Catharsis, - Killing Box)
3. SOWN (+ Potters Field, - Hy Pro Glo)

5. Spreading The Disease (+ S.S.C., - Medusa)
6. Persistence Of Time (+ Discharge, - H8 Red)
7. Among The Living (+ N.F.L., - A.D.I.)
8. State Of Euphoria (+ Be All End All, - Schism)

[Thrashard]

johnnie, we've got something in common, 'Strap It On' least fav. on WCFYA, 'Catharsis' fav. on Vol. 8, 'Death From Above' least. fav. on FOM

 

[Social Distortion]

1. We've Come For You All - Anyplace But Here/Crash
2. Among The Living - Among The Living/ADI
3. Sound Of White Noise - Packaged Rebellion/This Is Not An Exit
4. Persistance Of Time - Got The Time/H8 Red
5. State Of Euphoria - Be All, End All/13
6. Stomp 442 - Random Acts/Bare
7. Spreading The Disease - Medusa/Stand Or Fall
8. Volume 8 - Crush/Harms Way
9. Fistful Of Metal - Deathrider/Soldiers Of Metal

BUT the only Anthrax albums I dislike and don't listen to are Vol 8 and Fistful.

[Matt Bello]

1. SOWN (+ Packaged Rebellion, - Sodium Pentothal)
2. WCFYA (+ Any Place But Here, - Strap It On)
3. Volume 8 (+ Catharsis, - Cupajoe)
4. Stomp 442 (+ Fueled, - Drop The Ball)
5. Persistence Of Time (+ Belly of the Beast, - H8 Red)
6. State Of Euphoria (+ Be All End All, - Schism)
7. Among The Living (+ Among the Living, - A.D.I.)
8. Spreading The Disease (+ Lone Justice, - Medusa)
9. Fistful Of Metal (+ Deathrider, - Death From Above)



SOWN: the perfect album, no filler, just good song. They added the missing ingredient that POT did not have, John Bush.
WCFYA: the best Anthrax's line-up.
Stomp and V8: I like them has a 4 pieces.
POT: the best Joey's album and the best Joey's melody line.
SOE: sound is weak, unfortunately because it's a very strong album, Who cares win and Be all and all are my 2 faves Joeythrax song.
STD: Best Joey's vocal. On top of his art, unfortunately he go downhill after that.
FOM: great album, but i'm not a big fan of Turbin's voice, would've been better with Joey. This album was suited for John's voice, on GOTE he is very strong on FOM's song.

Well, to be fair Neil Turbin is the biggest reason I don't like Fistful. Like you said, the new versions on GOTE are great, so they're not that bad songs. This album is a victim of the times.

 

[danaholica]

We've Come For You All
Among The Living
Sound Of White Noise
Spreading The Disease
Stomp 442
Persistence Of Time
State Of Euphoria
Fist Full Of Metal

 

[vomit]

SOWN-Perfection
WCFYA-Excellence
Vol. 8-Some Fill
STD-Joey's Best
S442-Weaker production
POT-Excellent production....with Bush this would be #2, or #3
ATL-Poor production, mostly great songs
SOE-Laughable for the most part, "13" anyone?
FOM-Neil Turbin's Best ever, GOTE proved the songs were decent if sung properly.

5) Spreading The Disease (+Madhouse, -AIR)

AIR is your least favourite song? Ha ha, I think it's safe to conclude you're not the thrasher you claim to be!

What a tool.

[Thrashard]

[EerieVon]

1. Persistence Of Time--great production, great sound, great songs, and pinnacle of song writing ability
2. State of Euphoria--grossly underrated, great songs but shitty production
3. Spreading the Disease-great sound, good vibe to the record
4. Among The Living-Don't know if I listened to it too much but all the songs have the same vibe to them
5. SOWN-Liked it for non Joey album, several solid songs but not Anthrax
6. FOM-good moments, not a fan of Neil. I'm Eighteen and Deathrider are my standouts
7/8 (tie) WCFYA and Stomp--ok, nothing great. Music lacks the hook of earlier material
9. Vol 8--WTF is this?? I thought this was retarded Pantera. A song about coffee??? Thats what SOD is for
