What is your opinion on the current state of Anthrax?

Although, it is cool to see Belladonna back... I personally think the whole situation pretty much stinks.  If your going to do a reunion and plan to do a new album... then my god... tell this to John Bush...   What do they think they are doing... doing a reunion thing... but not being able to tell Bush or Belladonna what is going to happen in the future..

Personally, I think it is all about the money...  Why else would they do it???  1 year ago... they would not even talk to eachother... and would speeww bad shit about each other in the press all the time... but now.. they are all brothers and buddies???  It has to be the money...

If they record a new record with Belladonna... and it sucks... Anthrax is done.... for they would have nothing left too do.. where could they go???

Ok, I'll stop now...  just doing a little ranting there... sorry

Other Opinions?

Personally I have never been a huge fan of Anthrax.  True, they do have some kick-ass tunes in their catalog, but I have never felt compelled to buy any of their cd's. 

It probably is all about the money.  If I remember correctly didn't the band get screwed out of a lot of money once or twice?

I've never been a huge Anthrax fan either... but I don't think it takes a die hard fan to look at the situation and think....  Bush and Belladonna are getting the shaft in this deal...

As of right now... neither of them know if they will be on another Anthrax album???

John Bush says he's done.. and I don't blame him...   Belladonna is touring with the group & he still doesn't know if he'll be on another album...

I guess my point is this : This could have been handled in a much more mature and deliberate way...  but then again... I don't put the words "Anthrax" and "Mature" in the same sentence very often he he

I got to see them last month and I say who cares. Belladonna is the man and that is Anthrax's better music. I was in heaven listing to all the old tunes. If its for cash then who cares. It still rules. Bush should go back to doing Armored Saint. He had some thing with that band.

I read an interview of Belladonna and he said there not sure if they are going to do a new album or not. He said they don't want to jump the gun and put out an album for the sack of a reunion album. They would want to do it right and make it a good album. Plus it would probably be a thrash album to because that is what Joey wants to do. I think a new Anthrax album that was thrash and ruled would be the best.

I think the reunion was great..but it could have been handled better for sure..not all the questions?? and no definite answers for them. But I still totally dig it..check out my reviews of both "new" releases from Anthrax..They Still Are The Law....

I love their early stuff with Belladonna, not too keen on the Bush era, but there's a few select song's I like. Judging from the Alive 2 DVD i bought and watched, they pretty much suck live nowadays, and don't have high hopes for anything they produce in the future.

For me, I like Fistful of Metal with Neil Turbin. After that, a couple of songs here and there but that's it. There are better bands out there, with much better musicians.
I also despise Scott Ian. That guy just pisses me off.


What you used to love now, you're gonna adore. With Charmin Ultra, less is more. Cha Cha Cha, Charmin.
