"Rob Caggiano - a fun guy to have a beer with". Oh man, that was perfect!

LOVE THESE VIDEOS!!!! Please Keep Them Coming!

I've been a fan of Henry Rollins for many years and I don't believe I have ever heard him mention being an Anthrax fan before. This is both weird and awesome at the same time.

this album is a masterpiece

Album is perfection. How can no one bring up Skeleton in the Closet? My all time favorite Anthrax track. Just balls out thrash metal🤘🤘🤘

Learning that Henry is an Anthrax fan made my day.

“Rob Caggiano - fun guy to have a beer with” 😆

The rhythm riff during the solo of Horror of it All is one of my favorite riffs ever! I just want to punch shit when I hear it.

We never said much. We kept to ourselves and read comic books...played D & D...enjoyed some sporadic 'lierature' at our leisure. We were ridiculed. We were picked on by the 'cool' kids. So we tried to fly under the radar and avoid ridicule. We liked Metal. Some of us liked punk as well. (That was a 'no-no' back in 1985 in my region) But there was an absolute connection with Anthrax. Particularly when Among The Living was released. For lack of a better term, this was "Nerd Rock" to us. Songs based on Judge Dredd. What? Songs based on King books. What? Lyrics with a message...Imitation of Life. What? That album spoke to us. And it spoke to others, as well. The music welcomed us to understand that it was OK to be yourself. We had never heard these things before. And here are these bad ass riff rocking ass kicking muthas saying "Yeah, man! It's cool!" I'm 51 years old and this record holds a place in my heart. THIS is the record that started my journey with Anthrax (my personal favorite of the Big 4) and I have never looked back. I could get into more but I've probably already been too long winded. Regardless, I will always be a fan of Anthrax.

Among, Among , Among ❣️✊❤️🎶✨

Some of the best guitar tones ever!

I'll never forget the first time I heard "I AM THE LAW!" As a kid growing up in Scotland and having bought 2000AD from it's 1st issue to see DREDD immortalized in a killer song was FAN-FUCKIN-TASTIC! Killer album.

They made a lot of good albums, but with Among the Living, they found their definitive sound. It's a masterpiece from the beginning to the end. I had a lot o fun listening this album with my friends...good times. I'm 49...listening this songs I feel like 17.

NFL's bass guitar sound is unbeatable.

Dan Spitz was a severely underrated lead player. Not underrated with the fans but he never seemed to be in Magazines a lot compared to other metal players in the 80’s.

If they were to continue to document every single album up to Kings and then release a hard copy version of all the videos, I would watch it over and over again. I love documentaries like this!

One World, A Skeleton in the Closet and Imitation of Life are the fucking shit yo!

among the living was my intro to Anthrax... and i still listen to it to this day... that was back in 1987.

So much love and respect for Anthrax, those riffs are monumental and never lose impact no matter how many times I hear them.

If Slash does another solo album 💿 where he gets different singers to sing each song, he should have Joey Belladonna sing one.

My band covers Among the Living and Antisocial. Among is a masterpiece.

Been loving this series. Spreading The Disease is my favourite Anthrax album.

All of these videos are excellent!! I love this band and it’s about time we and everyone show them the respect they deserve!!

Finally got to see anthrax play live at hellfest a few years back...... they played so many of my old favourites from the early records and at 46 years old i was moshing like a 20 year old.... it takes a lot longer to recover these days but fuck it was worth it

Ahhh my daily dose of Anthrax ☺️

Trunk is a tool. I grew up on these guys. I wasn't concerned with the charts. Great band

Indians was the very first thrash song I ever heard. I taped it off the radio from a college station. I loved the song but didn't know who it was until a month later at my cousins who had cable and was flipping through channels. He passed MTV and I yelled at him, "go back, go back, that's the song! It's the song on the tape!" Thats when I finally learned it was ANTHRAX and that cable had a metal video show.

No mention of Skeletons. I can't put this album down without hearing that one.

Last time I saw Anthrax live I said to my GF; "I'm gonna keep out of the pit, I'm too old for that shit now". The second I heard that first chord of Caught In A Mosh I was GONE. I dove head first into that pit. These songs just make you move!

Among is a incridible album I love " The horror of it all "

"mublanikcufecin"🤘👍

November 5th 1987 Edinburgh playhouse, my first gig , Anthrax supported by Testament , this gig has defined my path in life, Among the Living and the live spectacle of Anthrax ..Blew my mind and friends, the fun , the skill and the positive vibe that oozed from the stage that night has never left my memory. The best £6.00 I have ever spent! A Skeleton in the Closet is also an incredible track Drums, riffs and vocals!

Awesome! One on the best thrash metal albuns EVER!!! The best! Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹

I am lovin this fukin awesome series.

Happy that Rollins is here. He represents us old school 80's Punks who had to hide our Metal album collection back then or we'd get teased when our friends came over. Myself & 1 other Punk friend were fans of Anthrax, Metallica, Slayer, Motorhead & Nuclear Assault. (Thrash Metal exclusively)

Wish I could go back in time and hear this album for the first time again. It changed my life.

Spreading the Disease was the album of my youth. Lone Justice Enemy Stand or Fall Medusa Very melodic album!!!

I'm excited for State of Euphoria!!! My all time favorite Anthrax album!!!

It's pretty cool seeing people that I consider big timers saying they're opinions on among the living that are the same as mine. Nobody tells me what to like but, it's nice people I admire feel similar.

I'd loved to have seen them on the Among The Living tour... but I did see them on State Of Euphoria in Bristol, England. They had Kings X supporting who were excellent! But Anthrax were ferocious!! Before the gig, some blokes that knew my friend came up and said they'd sneaked in during soundcheck and stolen Charlie's hat (from the I Am The Man video) But the bloke that said that passed it to his friend. Some moments passed when all of a sudden this HUGE guy comes from nowhere and launches into the guy wearing the hat. Turns out this guy was one of the roadies and a friend of Charlie and spotted this bloke wearing the hat in the audience. Poor guy didn't know what hit him, security was holding the roadie off and I don't know what happened to the guy wearing the hat, I assume he was kicked out... or knocked out. I was 15 and it shocked the hell out of me! Anyway, Anthrax were awesome. Dan Spitz is never lauded as being one of the great metal lead guitarists, which is a shame because he was very skilled!

Inmortal album

I still have my heat exposed cassette AND N.F.V. on VHS!!!

no one really mentions charlies drumming in this video . The drumming - double bass rolls in particular - are just wild on Among the living ..great album !

Among and Persistence of Time are my 2 favs Anthrax albums 🤘🤘

Norman's right. Anything Mike Patton says is gold!!

Among the Living was my introduction to Anthrax and thrash metal as a genre.

YES!! Cover State of Euphoria in the next episode or two.

It was my very first COMPACT DISC! It just beckoned me to it sitting there on the shelf, and I didn't hesitate to buy it. God, how I mess the 80's.

I was going to bed, now I’m opening up a stout and reliving some childhood memories. The record grooves on this album should be in an art museum. Such a masterpiece.

Doing the S.O.D album clearly influenced the direction that Anthrax went in on Among The Living. The songs were much faster and more aggressive and punk-influenced compared to the more Maiden-influenced speed metal of Spreading The Disease. Even the vocals had a more punk-ish delivery.

The intro to Indians is one of the best in Metal. Ever!

Heaviest band on the world.....Anthrax....and then ....,,🎸🎸 And I got lost....... Among the living the best of album!!!!!!! 💎

When the "S.O.D. Sound" became prevalent in their riffs and time signatures! I'll never forget!🤘🤘💜🙏

One of my favourite metal albums to listen to. Anthrax was the first band I saw live at the Monsters of Rock at Donington in 1987. Saw them again that year in Oxford during their second leg of the Among the Living tour. Fantastic live. Great memories 🤘🏻

Among the Living. One of the Best Thrash Albums period.

Scott , Gary Holt and Dave Mustaine have to me the best gutiar tone I have ever heard in my entre life long live Thrash !

I was 15 and said to my best friend I want to get into metal. He handed me a tape called Power Chords. Raven, Ace Frehley, Savatage, Manowar, Overkill, Helloween, and Anthrax playing Efilnickufesin!

I used to draw the "Not" man and Judge Dredd on my school book covers made from brown paper bags...if you know, you know

Henry gives a good description of the scene/ mood at the time. One of the guys mentioned Hardcore, one of the things that appeals to me about Anthrax is they sometimes had a social message. They had contemporary content, pop culture content, and literary content.

Most favorite 80's metal album.

Saw Thrax at the Manchester Apollo on the U.K. tour with Testament supporting.My first thrash gig.

they never talk about ''ONE WORLD''...that song is so underrated...CRANK THAT SHIT !!!!

Every time I watch one of these videos I want to listen to the entire Anthrax catalog all day long. Love and respect.

3:25 This chick looks around 35 and she said that her mom got her into Anthrax. Damn, now I feel really old.

I turn 51 years old this year. I fell in love with this band because of Among the Living. I am still in love to this day! These episodes make me smile so fucking hard I've had to start Oil of Ole treatments to keep my wrinkles in check! Much love to all 🤘

My favorite album. Nothing compares. I had the 5 ft poster of the cover on my wall. So. good

This is the album that made me a fan. I finally got to see them live, twice, a couple years back and it was awesome. I always say their last two albums are the best last two albums of all the big 4.

Definitely Among the Living is their best record...followed by Spreading the Disease. Among built up on the sound of Disease but now the band, as many pointed out, were a tighter unit and better musicians...and more mature ...probably my favourite thrash metal album...cheers Anthrax !!!

For me I discovered them when Spreading came out . To me that's a 10. It's perfect & that's always been my favorite but Among is such a close second like 9.99. I agree with that one dude. The first thing you hear from a band is special.

These videos are a real treat--thanks so much for them!

Such an amazing album 🤘🤘

I loved tht album soooo much...

I was big into Seger, Cheap Trick, Foreigner etc.... My buddy - who is still my oldest friend, brought over this album and said listen to this: he played Among, Caught and by the time he played Indians I was hooked. Spotify said I was in the top .05% of their listeners last year. I think The Devil You Know was my top song played.

"wake up dead in a plywood bed, six feet from the rest of your life. And when you couldn't see your own dependency NFL nice fuckin life." seriously. One of the absolute greatest albums ever.

These videos all take me back to high school with my jeans jacket with my Anthrax buttons and Metal Up Your Ass patch!!!! God the music was great...no smart phones (or photo evidence!!). People talked with other people...not this bullshit division we are dealing with today. NOT!!

love the story of eddie trunk goin up to get the headress and drapping it in his car so carefully

I got into Anthrax at 14 , after seeing the Anti-Social video. I was fucking amazed. awesome band .

Loving this series!

"Spreading" is my first Anthrax experiance in 86, but at the same time I've listened on national radio ihere in Portugal, on a metal show we had (wich was really cool, the show was called " Lança chamas wich translates to "Flame thrower") to Panic and Metal thrashing mad! And I remembered thinking: " This is not the same vocalist!?!...Of course I went to the store and bought "Fistful", that's when I found out that Lilker was the first bassist. I only knew him from Nuclear Assault.... But man, The first time I heard "Among" THAT WAS IT!!!! My first choices from that record are: "Caught" ; "NFL"; "Among" & " I'am THE LAW"!!!!!!!

Thank you for doing this for your fans guys! Really diggin' this series!

Whoever is involved with producing these... THANK YOU

I had Among the Living on cassette tape when I was 14. I'm 46 & still an Anthrax fan! They were great live back then & a few years ago.

Best thing on KZfaq right now. Thanxtrax!

The Danny spitz and Joey belladonna era is the best carnation of anthrax and their LP's with those two in the band

Cool comments by Henry Rollins

YES! Went to the "Among" gig 1987 in San Antonio, Sunken Gardens Theatre, w/ D.R.I. & Metal Church. Fucking awesome! 🤘🤘🤘

Among the living was my first Anthrax album I ever heard and saw it on tour in my home town of Oxford England with testament supporting excellent concert 🤘

Eagerly awaiting every new episode. I'm lovin' this! Terrific job, guys.

I love you guys \m/ Found out about you in 87 when I was 12 years old and I could not stop listening to you. I saw you open for Iron Maiden in 1991 when I was 15. One of the best shows I ever got to see and it was also my first arena show. Keep making killer metal \m/ I will keep listening and I am sure at some point in my own music some of your influence will leak out if it has not already \m/ MOSH IT UP

I thought it kicked ass when Norman Reedus came out on stage with anthrax playing the bass for one song,that was cool Darryl

My favorite album

Thanks for this documentary, and for putting it up in bits so I have time to watch it :) life long fan

This series is amazing

One of the best.

Enjoying every second of ANTHRAX 40!! \M/ So good i almost forgot to LIKE!!

Anthrax is the bomb my favorite band of the big fucking 4

Whoa! I used to go to Mike’s Comic Hut, in Flushing Queens, too! For years and years and years. I also went to Bayside High School with Scott Ian. He was a few years older than l am, so l didn’t know him.

Great job guys These videos have brought me back to my childhood Can't wait to see you guys in concert Again

Along with Spreading the Disease and State of Euphoria, definitely my fab Anthrax album.

Best docu-series Ever!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
