Stomp 442 and Sound of White Noise were hugely influential albums that nobody talks about. I put them up with Helmet's Meantime, among others, in terms of influence. So many heavy bands in the years to come and today owe a debt to these guys.
@@creamwobbly We're all waiting for your opinion, let us know.
Stomp 442 not a bad album. There a good band for sure.
Stomp 442 is soooo freaking good! And Frankie nailed it. "I love music, but I hate this F÷*king business".
Fueled.
I ❤️ how anthrax are putting these videos out so glad to be alive today we get to see everything instead of a kerrang magazine
I LOVE THIS ALBUM.... Since I bought this record I wanted to listen to it played on stage, then I fell off some stairs and I broke my ankle so I had to have surgery and I was at the hospital for some days. I friend of mine lent me a walkman to listen to this album again and again. The pain was so hard after the surgery.... Anthrax came to San Sebastian, so close to my village... but I couldn't take the pain, even with painkillers... I couldn't see the tour of this album in 1996, it was so hard to me. But fortunately I've seen them many times live, I even met them. Miss the Bush days! Hope to see Anthrax live again with him.
Hope your well Charlie.........
Pantera and Dime Bag specifically helped save Anthrax. They were starting to become a rudderless ship without a direction and thank God for Dime and Pantera!!
I saw Life of Agony, Deftones and Anthrax, April 1995 at the Academy, NYC. Amazing show \\m//!!!!
Stomp was my intro to the band. I worked my way back through their catalog from there and I loved that album! Loved Bush era, loved Joey too! But it’s a mood thing, I love both. Shame about Spitz though, I always thought he was underrated and under-utilised too. But Stomp rocked! Why isn’t it on Spotify!!!
I dont care what any of the critics say, I like STOMP 442
94 is when my child was born. I have always loved this band and been a fan since the '80s but "honestly" it was this area when I stopped listing to anything new from them till Joey came back. I didn't write them off still told people they are one of my favorite bands and jammed all the earlier stuff, it just wasn't my vibe. I am glad though they grew explored and done what they feel regardless of what others think. Music lives your heart, part of your psyche a piece of who you are and if you aren't true to the music within you are not being true to the soul within. (P.S. ANTHRAX rules!!)
I don't understand why some people don't enjoy this noisy, raunchy, gritty, dirty album. "Perpetual Motion", "Fueled", "American Pompeii", "Random Acts".... omg, so many songs I love.
Right! Such a solid album. I still listen to it.
Nothing, Bare, In a Zone..
@@HabAnagarek Exactly.
Definitely one of my favorites-!!
Rip.brother dime
Excited for Vol. 8. An underrated and my absolute favorite album.
I thought Stomp was underrated. IMO
Stomp 442 is all CB & is when I realized he was the heart & soul of the band 🤘🏻
Yes! Who could guess, the humble drummer was the amazing songwriter and lead guitarist? 🙌🏼🤘🤘
Underrated album for sure!!!
Loved this album. I was 15 when it came out and no matter the official story of this album was, it will always have a special place in my heart.
Really digging this band history stuff.
And American Pompeii!!!!!!!
I loved Stomp 442, big time. Saw Anthrax with Cannibal Corpse and The Misfits on that cycle in Pittsburgh. One advantage of the industry trying to kill metal was seeing odd packages like that.
I also saw them on that album cycle. They were with Life of Agony and Deftones. Killer show in a smaller venue. What an underrated album
What a bill!
Ha nice ! I was at that show as well !
My band got to open for Anthrax & Misfits that tour. Yes, it was a weird time for Metal. It was struggling to hang on. 96 was when my first kid was born and I also lost the passion.
Interesting fact, guitar player Paul Crook who was "ghost-writer/member" on Stomp, also co-wrote Joey Belladonna's solo album exact same year (1995). So he was something like medium between two worlds at a time. I wonder how did it happen and did they ask Paul "So how is the guy, still singing high?" or "Listen, are they happy with their new singer? Any words about missing me, no?" Really want to hear the band commenting that connection.
Loved the album.
Sometimes I forget to pray, I’ll make it through this fuckin day!!
It was a very good album. As Anthrax Never did a bad one!
But it was different to the 80s Anthrax I fell in love with.
I listened to stomp a lot, but missed the thrashy style and also Dan.
When I saw them live on that tour, indeed little crowd there. John finished the concert with: „ bring your friends next time“
Drop the ball is one of my all time favorite songs ever. So fucking heavy. And bush kills it!
Still have my Stomp442 cassette you and the guys autographed back then.
Charlie, if you remember anything about this it would be awesome for some info. The best metal show I ever saw was Anthrax during this tour. I got tickets for Cannibal Corpse, The Misfits and Anthrax. They were playing at this little club in Seattle called DV8. I was not a fan of Bush at the time and most of my friends weren't either. We were there to see Cannibal Corpse. But to tell the truth. Anthrax CRUSHED it. Most of the show Bush was arguing with people behind stage, not singing at all. During some of the songs he had the mic in his pants sticking out like it was his c*ck and he was just mean mugging the audience like some Psycho. They started to play "Among the Living" and stopped half way through because Bush was not singing, then Scot played "Protest and Survive" because bush was not singing. Bush was off the chain that night, climbing on the speakers, swinging from lights hung from the rafters. I SHIT YOU NOT, he was an unchained beast. And then when he sang, it was EPIC. They played "Only" and the entire crowd was just pumped and singing along with so much energy. For years I have wondered what was going on and why was Bush fighting backstage during half of the show. Bush was a madman and I never seen a singer in person sing with so much power behind his voice.
Stomp 442 was a solid album
Hey Charlie! Saw you guys August 11 1996 in Salt Lake City at Bricks 579 W 200 S with life of agony , cannibal corpse(cancelled), Misfits and you guys , Jerry Only jumped in the crowd and no one could hold him up he so frickin big
Best Anthrax album, hands down
The best episode yet! Thanks Brother!
Danny!👍🏼
May fave Anthrax album. Shame I can't get it on the streaming services here in Australia
KILLER album! Their best with JB
American Pompeii seems almost prophetic in 2021😓
I remember when this album dropped. I was 18 at the time and was trialing for the New Zealand University Men's Touch Rugby team.
While everyone else was training to venga boys n spice girls.
I'm smashing out sprints to Random Acts Of Senseless Violence.
Anthrax got me in the team.
We were world champs undefeated 1996.
Thank you for the journey this is the best
Paul Crook now plays for Meatloaf who it’s Scott’s Ian’s father in law.
Another super interesting episode...
Stomp 442 us underrated, at least for some of the songs. There are a few songs I skip, though. However "Grunt and Click" was a b-side and I absolutely love that one lol
Grunge lost. Metal cannot be defeated.
All business suck Frank because it's...business. The lover of art is called amateur in my country. Got the point!
Mr. B,
the music on those records with John Bush is too good to be left in the past forever. I love all those early records with Joey, but THE GREATER OF TWO EVILS has the best and most visceral versions of my favorite Anthrax songs from that period. They are so good that I don't even listen to the original records anymore. I really think the best songs from the "Bush era" deserve another chance with the current lineup. It is a big mistake not to do it. If you don't agree, I think you should do it anyway, just to stop me from begging you to do it, 'cause I'll never stop. Please!
I'm still a big fan since Fistful. 40 years... Time flies and Anthrax keeps getting better!
Thank you again for being a never ending source of inspiration and one of my biggest references as a composer and as a band. \m/
Naza-Marcos Nazareth, totally agree, but fact is, Joey can't sing Bush-era songs well; they tried Only live for a while, it did not sound good. I'd like to see them still try the 2 singers/2 sets thing live....
@@jnunez825 The Joey we hear on Worship Music and For All Kings can sing anything.
In live concerts he insists on that vibrato that just doesn't belong in Thrash Metal.
If there is one thing John Bush NEVER does is vibrato. When Joey does that he doesn't even sound like himself on the records.
There is just one thing that would be more awesome than Joey AND John:
Joey, John, Neil, Lilker, Spitz and Rob.
It's not a "20 years" cellebration. It's a "40 years" cellebration! \m/
How about letting us also here about those few hidden gems within the Anthrax catalog. "Poison My Eyes. Beastie Boys cover "Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun" ???
They were Anthrax tracks on different movie soundtracks!
London was also in the Airheads movie !
By that Time...i remember being young AND pissed with all of you, cause i hated what Metallica did..what they AND you did musically.....i missed the old school drawing covers like among..spreading...state.. persistence...plus there was no dan Spitz anymore...and for not coming to south america to Argentina...i stopped listen you until Joey came back...its my truth....sorry for this act of catharsis...that s how i felt those days...thank you for all your hard work too....
The mid-nineties were a tough time to be a metalhead in North America. Labels weren't even printing some bands' albums for this market, and you had to order them from overseas. Bands who lived in Canada and the US had to go overseas to tour.... and many just folded because it was getting too expensive and exhausting. The business people decided "that's not what people want to hear over here" and just really aggressively steered away.
Great to see some focus on what could easily be described by some as the bands "wilderness years". Nice there's no papering over the cracks on these vids
I saw them on the Stomp 442 in Europe. Who was the guy filling in for Spitz?
That crazy VH guitar from the Mr Bungle video
Metallica would never do something as open like this.
Ummm some kind of monster 🧐🤔😅😅😅😅
Charlie running the show in the studio just like Lars does for Metallica
And Charlie still has his drumming chops!
@@jnunez825 unlike Lars who down right blows!
Should have just changed the band name. It was only an immediate door closer for the band after 1993.
I blame metallica with their watered-down Black album as much as grunge, for giving Metal a bad name in the music business. All the gatekeepers apparently telling bands "be more like that slow, simple, metallica ballad". Weak sauce. 😒 Great to hear the real Anthrax story of this era.
Yep, it affected Megadeth in the same way. Dave thought he would find more success going down that route, until it almost killed the band. I think the only band unaffected was Slayer. Luckily, Pantera was keeping that heavy metal torch lit to get through the 90's.
@@itsalwayssomething7490 I believe there was a recent metal documentary where Slayer was up front about that metallica-Black album era with management & everyone insisting they had to write "unplugged ballad" type of songs specifically because of the black album's financial success & trying to chase that. I forget the name but it was a great documentary. All the bean counters only want one thing: more beans... even when the music suffers greatly.. and metal bands are unlikely to be able to write inauthentic music anyways so the resultant songs were not very good. Kerry King also famously said that he bought the black album and listened to it once and threw it across the room & down his stairs or something he thought it was so horrible.. lol Either way still feel bad for John Bush who kind of got the brunt of Anthrax's lack of financial success during this era of, "No, we don't do metal here anymore".
@@creamwobbly "Metallica and the other Metallica..." -- Ha! Nice one.
Coming off of a great sound of white noise album, I can't remember being more disappointed when I heard this disc full of filler. It was a first time anthrax put out something of non-quality.
And please, enough with this cliche narrative "that it wasn't promoted enough" and "it was the record company's fault.." ... I love when bands say that, deflecting the blame for a poor album on others.
So I take it you are not a fan of "Random Acts of Senseless Violence" That is my favorite from the album. And there is also a badass ballad on that album.
Times were changing. Metallica had changed, so did almost every band. If you were a true Anthrax fan, you accepted the band as they were. Does not matter if you were a fan or not.
At Least Anthrax never put out "St. Anger" or even a couple of Megadeth's equally bad albums. I would include Slayer - but what are their worst songs.
Please someone tell me!!!!!
@@reverendlee7617 to be fair,other than risk and lulu, stomp 442 is probably the worst album combined out of all four of the big four!!!! Just a matter of personal opinion I guess!!!
