Chile metal fans are legends 🤘

Chile don’t mess around. Respect ⚔️

Just listen to that whole album. A masterpiece!

IN CHILE WE LOVE ANTHRAX

Had to give you the Live From Chile version because the crowd shows why this is a big 4 band. The thing about Anthrax is they don’t have the angry sound and overtones of other thrash bands, it’s more of a fun sound. This is the band that for me into thrash because they did not have all that anger and made it accessible to my taste in music at the time. They in turn got me into Metallica, Megadeth, Testament, Overkill, etc. First thrash show I went to Anthrax and Testament, both Amazing live bands and now I officially became a thrash fan. Years later had the opportunity to promote an Anthrax show with the Mistfits (Awesome show), found out they were just some of the coolest most chill guys out there. After the show I had to drive them back to their hotel which was only a couple of minutes away. My car was a Mercury Capri convertible at the time, just slightly bigger than a Mazda Miata with a half back seat. I told them I would make 2 trips for them, they all just piled in my tiny car, with the top on cause it was raining and we’re just easy going and funny. So for all those out there that don’t get why they are big 4, they were the introduction to thrash for millions in the 80’s. I’m The Man and Bring the Noise both getting played on Headbanggers Ball and Yo MTV Raps. Introduced a whole new audience to thrash, and it wasn’t a marketing ploy, it’s just who these guys were. They didn’t need to be the heaviest, angriest band they just did what they did.

Dude had a road flare in the pit. That's hardcore LOL.

Argentina, Brazil, Chile have the best hard rock/metal fans in the world.

Can't be prouder to be a Chilean. Glad you did this live version I believe I also requested in the past.

In Chile we love anthrax 🤘, state of euphoria it's a really good album bro, give them a chance 🤘🤘

"Hey, did you hear that Night Ranger passed away?" "Oh, what happened?" "They were poisoned by Anthrax". 😂

I have been there! I'm a woman, 150 cms, hahaha I ended with every cell of my body in pain one entire week after 🤣🤣 worth it 🤘🏻

Chile, argentina y Brasil los mejores publicos del mundo y estuve ahí 🤘🏼

This is fire🔥🔥🔥

"Among the Living" is by far my favorite Anthrax album. It has so much to say. And the music is THRASHING! From "Caught In A Mosh" (Think) before you speak Or suffer for your words (Learn) to give respect That others give to you Ah, the best you can do

Anthrax is amazing especially live...

Man, I have to say Night Ranger is heavier than I remember. Maybe they threw away their hairspray cans.😂

Joey and Scott loved this show

This is easily one of the best thrash metal albums ever listen... and ive listened to a buuunch of thrash metal... masterpiece album

Anthrax - Chile on hell 🤟🏻

Epic song! It’s based of The Stand by Stephen King. Gung-Ho is just pure Anthrax thrash!🤘

Belly of the Beast - Anthrax I think one of their best written and played songs, it has everything.

Anthrax is thrash but heavily influenced by punk/hardcore scenes and they kind of bridge the gap between punk and metal and they are the East coast (NYC) representative of the thrash scene. The other members of the Big 4 are rooted in California so their influences vary a bit. Compared to the rest of the thrash scene. They were early supporters of hip hop Scott always wore the Public Enemy shirts. I have seen them 4 times through the years twice with Joey Belladonna singing and twice with John Bush on vocals. John Bush is best known for his work with. Another thrash titan Armored Saint.

Anthrax is a lot more "punky" then the other big 4 members. Scott ian is one of the most underapreciated metal guitarists ever.

Check out the track, Caught in a Mosh if you wanna hear heavy Anthrax.

Extasis maximo

There is nothing like an Anthrax live show. I've seen them repeatedly and they bring it every time. There are one of the most energetic bands I've ever seen live. Among the Living is my favorite album but they have so many other great albums as well, including their albums with John Bush. The Bush stuff was a bit on the slower side but his vocals are more 'smooth' than Belladonna.

I just saw them live with exodus the other night they are insane!!!!!!!

Anthrax is my favorite thrash band, followed by Testament. That is Anthrax from the 80s, btw.

One of my favorite bands, this album gets a lot of love but their best is Persistence Of Time, you can put on any track from that and I guarantee you’ll love it

Great review! Love that your opinion is swaying in the right direction for Anthrax! The "problem" with getting introduced to this amazing band is they have some niche songs that a lot of casual Anthrax fans will recommended a song that was great at the time, and is also important in history...such as I'm the Man and also Antisocial, but not really a true representation of who Anthrax really is. They have their place, but there is so much better in Anthrax's catalog! I have been a fan since the mid 80's and have seen them live as recent a the past couple of months ago in Detroit, and are still kicking ass! The Among the Living album is considered one of the best thrash albums ever, and can be listened to from beginning to end. I would stay away from songs from State of Euphoria (based on your comments you would hate Antisocial!!) , as even the members of the band consider that one of their weaker albums. Song wise, I would check out I am the Law, Skeletons in the Closet, Keep it in the Family, AIR, and for newer songs Fight em til you Can't, The GIant, Evil Twin, and In the End is really good (slow but heavy and dedicated to Dimebag Darell and Dio). Hopefully you find more that you like though!

This was the first song to get me into anthrax as well, killer tune

ANTHRAX has soo many good albums!

Anthrax was the second international band my mate's opened for after Metallica's 89 Damaged Justice Tour

Live in Chile

Fuck yeah! Among the Living and Persistence of Time are their best records from the 80s era... their new stuff is badass too, Worship Music and For All Kings are Solid records... 90s is very hit and miss....Sound of White Noise is their peak 90s album 🤘⚡️🤘

If you like that version of Anthrax then I highly recommend I Am The Law, Keep It In The Family and/or Medusa, can’t go wrong with any of those songs!!

Was really excited to hear you react to Night Ranger, "Don't tell me you love me"...guess not. Lol

Seen Anthrax back in 1987 when they opened for KISS at the Civic Auditorium in San Francisco, CA. It was a kick ass show, one of our buddies went into the mosh pit, came back 10 minutes later with a big red hand print across his face and was crying. 😂

The problem with big 4 is a lot of people have no idea what thrash is and they just expect Metallica. Metallica was barely ever thrash.

On their Worship Music album from 2011 they have a song called In The End. Incredible singing by Joey Belladona aka Joseph Bellardini

This somg was from the album, "Among the Living.," & it came out in 1986. In my opinion, it's the best album they made. Every song on the album is banging, including 'Indians,' which is a great song. I think you just forgot how good the song is after hearing their songs that don't talk to you. I suggested 'Indians,' on a superchat, & you seemed to like it. You weren't praising it or anything, but I don't remember you saying it was bad. Anyway, the album is full of bangers, but my favorite is probably "Caught in a Mosh." Though, I also really like "I am the Law." It's a song about 'Judge Dredd.' Check out a few jams from this album, & you'll dig Anthrax...Maybe you'll even check out another album, just pick wisely, there's a few that should be forgotten. Lol. Enjoy T...Glad you haven't given up on Anthrax...yet. 🤘🤪

The Big 4 - Suicidal Tendencies Slayer Carcass Terror

All you gotta do is check out 'Metal thrashing mad' by Anthrax (either the studio version w/ Neil Turbin on vocals, or live version w/ Joe Belladonna on vocals)... and that frantic Anthrax sound is right there in your face! Some of the more shredding Anthrax songs - 'Time'... 'I am the law'... "What doesn't die"... 'Schism'... 'A.I.R.' ... 'Room for one more' 🤘🤘 'Among the living' (the song and album) was from 1987, their first gold record & fan fave. The lyrics were about the Stephen King book 'The Stand', which was made into a TV miniseries in the 90's, and recently a limited series on Paramount+ ... The story begins w/ a plague called the 'superflu' or 'Captain Trips' breaking out of a US military research base and spreads across America like wildfire... Those who are not killed by the disease see law & order breaking down and the collapse of civilization as we know it. In the aftermath, cities are deserted and survivors start seeing dreams of an old lady named Mother Abigail telling them to come see her in Nebraska, and warns them that an evil man is also rounding up survivors to his cause... That figure is revealed to be Randall Flagg, a drifter who possesses powers and is building his base of followers and killing anyone who opposes him. The cover of 'Among the living' shows Randall Flagg in the middle of a crowd of people.

100% in the same place with your take on Anthrax in the beginning. I've just never been able to get into them like Metallica or Megadeth

Dude! Check out 'Got the Time'.

Song is based on Stephen King's novel The Stand. Captain Trips, The Walking Dude...

Among the Living is based on the Stephen King book "The Stand". I assume somebody has said that already. I'm too lazy to scroll through the comments😊

This was played on rock stations and in rock clubs all the time. Idk about hot97 though

Do you want energy? You've got it per tons!!!

Try most anything from state of euphoria. And also some of the years withJohn Bush singing...I think mid 90's to around 2005.

that's the best album

Among The Living was the first album i ever bought and i love it still today! What a band! I have always known Joey was a really good singer and he proved it when they did the Dio song Neon Nights for the Dio tribute album. The guy has an amazing voice! He must have to be able to pull off a Dio song!

On Any Given Day,Imo,Any Of The Big Four Can Top The Other's But In The End They Are The Mount Rushmore Of Thrash !

The way to watch Anthrax is live. From that same show, Skeleton in the Closet. If you think this was intense, Skeleton in the Closet is relentless. Joey's vocals are better live in most cases, especially back in the 80s. Musically, they're even more intense on live recordings. This video was shot by fans and pieced together. The audio isn't as good. Skeleton in the Closet is an official video release and better audio quality.

This is written about the stand by Stephen King

You'll love the whole album of Among the Living, especially Caught in a Mosh, I Am the Law, and Indians.

Skeletons in the Closet is a great song too!

The original studio version is good, the live version you reacted to is probably 35+ years older and to be honest the first time I saw them in concert that song shredded. Of course that was about 30 years ago or so. Big difference between all three

Anthrax "I'm the Man" or "Bring the Noise" 🤘

If you see them live you would change your mind. Anthrax kick ass. Also imo the album amount the living is their best work. Skeleton in the closet, I am the law, Indians, NFL, caught in the mosh. You missing out

Hey T, I had won a metal meltdown battle with Deathrider by Anthrax -- give it another listen.

Anthrax is the besy😅

Night Ranger? :)

BRO YOU GOTTA DO REACTION VIDEOS TO SCOTT IAN'S OTHER HUGE PROJECT S.O.D.!!!!!!! You wanna talk hard---- listen to S.O.D. " United Forces" , " Freddy Krueger" ,and " Milano Mosh". It was so ahead of it's time and captured a tempest of musical energies that wouldn't happen anywhere else or by anybody else. I'd like what S.O.D.s impact and innovation to the contribution to seminal band The Bad Brains ( another band you gotta check out if you don't know em'. Try I Against I that song and that album were incredible. Please excuse my long-winded post---- I'm just geeking out on incredible music right now!

You should check out more of their Live stuff. A Skeleton in the closet from Kings Among Scotland is my recommendation. All their songs are heavier live. I think you would even like Madhouse live, it is much heavier.

Skyclad . They have 13 cds try still spinning shrapnel. The windershins jig. Thinking allowed

They collaborated with billy milano and called them selves s.o.d

Stryper has 3 new singles out FYI.

You're actually becoming a metalhead T wow have you come a long way!~ Potter's field, Horror of it all, Poison my eyes are good choices. Agreed You started off bad on Anthrax those tracks you mentioned weren't the right choices lol !!

Give anything from The Sound Of White Noise a listen. It’s their first album with John Bush on vocals.

Either I’m really stoned or he titled this video wrong…. Or both 😂

-Maybe I'm old school, but I prefer to hear the original album cut of a song before judging a live version. Sorry, to say, not all bands sound good live(definitely NOT the case here, however). But, even so, you should give a listen to the original, regardless of how you like this live cut. But, maybe I'm biased. I first heard this album/song/band back in the eighties. -quick after thought: after you checked out the studio cut toward the end of the video...you commented that it sounded nothing like Anthrax from the 80's? Brother, that album came out in 1987.

Check out Belly of the Beast from Persistence of Time (1990), which was the album In My World is from. They have by far the best bassist of the Big 4 in Frank Bello. Early Anthrax is very corny, it's like early Beastie Boys, it's hard to take seriously.

Try there I think Sammy Davis cover of “ got the time”

Play some Vantablack! ;)

Definitely a banger. You need to listen to state of euphoria. It’s still way better than their later stuff.

Enough consistently good songs?... Hmmm, try the entire State of Euphoria album. 😁

Their best song is "Only"

I hear what your saying T. try listening to anything off of Sound Of White Noise or Stomp 442 different singer John Bush, the band has a different vib.

Anthrax are a bit inconsistent album wise. Among The Living is definitely their best and full of good songs. Where they've always excelled is live. Seen them a few times and they always bring it and put on a great gig. I'd love to have been at that Chile show, it looks insane.

Listen to Anthrax Deathridder. That songs hard AF

Of the big 4, I place Anthrax at #2 behind only Slayer. Anthrax was like the little brother being funny, showing off because they were overshadowed by the other 3, but it really is their personality, which is awesome and refreshing. They did all kinds of different stuff, but their bread and butter is their searing riffs with rock solid bass/drum foundation and (at the time) Joey's soaring vocals. I take a lot of heat for my big 4 ordering, but everyone is different and if it were up to me, 1 of them wouldn't have allowed themselves to get so big as to forget the others and sellout... Just one old school thrashers opinion... I was there, I lived it, and I felt the disappointment from it. The music is still good, but the market manipulation and the direction left me behind - fortunately they picked up lots of replacements for me and the others disenfranchised.

Do you need to check out the album the greater of two evils it has John Bush sing the great album check it out you’ll like the remix

Among the living (album) is one of my all time favourite albums, i think listening to live versions for a first time listen is a mistake, you should listen to the studio versions, live can add things but also take away things, and crowd noises etc can cover bits

Idk if you have but you should spend I live stream reacting to Speak English or Die by S.O.D. and the live performance of March of the s.o.d and sergeant d and the s.o.d

Hey T it's been awhile great reaction my friend 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥♥️☮️ I respect anthrax but they shouldn't have been in a big four should have been Testament

Listen to got the time

I think you will dig "only" and "room for one more". Still Anthrax but a little different style. More adult sounding for lack of a better term.

Your title says night ranger? Anthrax rocks.

Damn, I musta been really wasted at that Night Ranger show.

Death rider anthrax

That entire album is the shit.i know anthrax can be hit or miss but among the living is a excellent album 👌

Saw them on the Clash of the Titans tour with AIC, Megadeth, and Slayer in Phoenix. Good times.

H8 red

What Doesn't Die

Sound recording is terrible.

I feel like you're someone who would groove so much more with the John Bush era of anthrax, as opposed to the Joey Belladonna eras. If you're confused, google what I'm saying. This band had a very tumultuous career. There's nothing wrong with that, everyone has their tastes. Anthrax was my first metal band, so, I consider them to be the most consistent of the big four, despite all the lineup changes they've had.

No that sounds exactly like Anthrax from the 80's, guess you haven't hit enough songs, or the right songs. Madhouse is a great song though. A.I.R., Armed and Dangerous, Medusa, Aftershock, Skeletons in the Closet, Gung-Ho (from Bochum '86 if you want to see pure energy), Belly of the Beast, Room for One More, Only

Dude first and foremost you don't have to be into every band if you're not into it you're not into it a lot of people like tool I can't stand them when I hear them on the radio I physically get ill but I don't apologize to people that like tool

This is a good song, also Be end End all. This band just have a few good songs but not to consider it as one of the big 4, only for beginning of Thrash Metal but "big 4"?!! I don't see it that way
