ANTHRAX
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
NYC’s thrash giants celebrate four decades of mosh mania
CONSIDER THIS: WHEN Anthrax formed in New York City on July 18, 1981, the average UK home price was a mere £20,268. In the 40 years that followed, the legendary thrashers – Joey Belladonna (vocals), Scott Ian and Jon Donais (guitars), Frank Bello (bass) and Charlie Benante (drums) – have released 11 studio albums, earned six Grammy nominations, sold millions of albums and toured the planet many times over. To celebrate their 40th anniversary, Anthrax announced a two-hour-plus livestream, though the set is actually pre-recorded. Why leave anything to chance when you can give fans a DVD-quality product with utterly phenomenal sound, high-definition video, compelling editing and zero hitches? This is precisely what we get.
