I think Stomp 442 was geared more towards the Warped Tour type of people. Scott was always a skater, Im surprised they never played Warped shows.

Ive seen Metallica do exactly that also. I saw them twice in 1994 and saw them within a month of each-other while at Woodstock. Everything was exactly the same word for word..nothing special for Woodstock.
Craziest show would either be Exploited or SOD. It was at the same club for both bands - Live at the Ritz. Exploited a riot almost broke out and the singer was saying F the Police and trying to incite a riot telling people to go crazy. I saw a major fight break out between a skinhead and black guy. The black guy ended up getting stabbed in the back. He got fucked up bad, I think he died..I was just in shock and scared for my life.
SOD Live At Ritz was crazy pit. Several walls of death plowing people all over and the security barrier got pushed right to the stage. Next crazy pit was Beastie Boys at NY Nassau Coliseum Arena. Beastie Boys live is like seeing 5 different bands. They played bunch of hardcore and pit was insane.

ATL is considered a great thrash album for many reasons, some of which I will try to explain the best I can even though I'm not quite sure why I'm doing it. the fact that you're on here posting about how Stomp is better than ATL, I can only assume you're enjoy fucking with people for the sake of it. I'm willing to be you're on a Metallica board right now telling people about how St. Anger is better than Kill 'Em All.
1. The songs are just pure, well-written thrash. Plain and simple. Fast, heavy, hard, and to the point, the way we like our 80s thrash to be.
2. I think there's an appeal to this album for the fact that there's a sense of humor (or 'fun') to it, which is one of the main things that always kept Anthrax from being a typical thrash-metal band. Examples are I Am The Law, Caught in a Mosh, NFL, Among the Living, etc...
3. Lyrically (besides the sillier songs) the album deals with social issues, prejudice, phonies...While the issue of racism towards Native Americans may be dated, the lyrics to Indians still hold up today in the context of prejudice with all the immigration issues. This is probably my all-time favorite Anthrax song, and cannot possibly fathom how a fan of thrash cannot like it. If the "WAR DANCE" mosh part doesn't get you moving then God help you.
4. Joey Belldonna's vocals just give the album an overall catchy feel and I really think that this is the first Anthrax album that perfectly displays how Joey's vocals counterpart the music.
I don't know who is saying that ATL is better than PoT, but if it is, it's not by much. I think both albums are musically equal, just different moods/tones. PoT is darker and more serious, and like someone else posted, only a few years apart from ATL, so it's not like it's so completely on another level. But it's just a matter of preference, do you like the faster, funner ATL or the darker, more serious PoT?

Yep, add in great musicianship from everyone in the band. Indeed, I think the vocals give it a kind of classic-metal vibe, while the rest of the band just shreds shit up riff-wise underneath, and its an amazing combo. I think Joey sings much better here than PoT, he has much more youth in his voice here. And the band underneath Joey is FUCKIN INTENSE! Guitar solos are excellent. There are just so many highlights on the album. Yes Indians is one of the greatest songs ever written. The intro riffing in the title track is one of the top moments in thrash metal. I prefer Among to PoT, there's no Got the Time, H8 Red and Gridlock on Among, its faster, thrashier, the seminal thrax album

ATL is better than PoT, but that's just coming from me.
...and whoever else happens to agree with me.
