Music Information

Anthrax

One of the originating Thrash Metal bands from the 80s. They've moved through the 90s to become one of the more powerful Heavy Metal bands out there. The biggest change in the bands direction was in the mid 90s when the original singer Joey Balladonna left and was replaced with John Bush. They've gone through several line up changes over the years but have always remained a basic metal band, and a good one. In the mid 2000s singer John Bush left the band.
