There is no way that this guy sounds anything like Matt Barlow nor can he even come close to his range in a live setting!

IMO, The hype has ruined the end result and this new material from Anthrax doesn’t cut it for ME. I loved the Belladonna era because it was killer Thrash. I loved the Bush era because it was Hardcore just like Mr. Scott Ian had always envisioned it to be and because it was still kick ass but in just a new direction. I had to get used to it! Plus, I loved Armored Saint, so, it was like a culmination of two of my favorite bands. Really, I only loved “Sound of White noise”,so, it was kinda a -3 in album comparison.

The whole reunion thing didn’t do squat for me…

This new stuff doesn’t impress me in the least and the new singer sounds a bit too much like John Bush with some Anselmo qualities. They had an opportunity to really throw people for a loop and they chose to stick with the tired hardcore act!
WTF!! I guess I’ll have to check the cd out to truly make up my mind!

I’m liking this a lot. The singer reminds me of Matt Barlow.

Anthrax (up through “…White Noise”) is one of my all-time favorite bands. That being said, I’m pretty surprised by how solid and promising some of the riffs in these songs sound, but the vocals are a letdown. And I’m not saying that just because the dude’s some no-name or whatever. But the vocals are a huge weak link in all of these tracks. I can’t fathom this dude being able to effectively sing anything from the first record or the Belladonna era. I don’t know… I’m sure he’ll sound better in the studio than live, but…

Not bad at all…actually pretty good,But damn i miss John Bush…Just a fan of that era of Anthrax….but it sounds like the new era of Anthrax is definitely trying to give us something good…I think i can learn to like it.

As a side note, as someone who has recorded a few share of shows, this is not terrible at all by audience recording standards.

Especially depending on the sound quality at the venue. He probably could have been a little more center but, who cares.

Sounds good to me considering the guy probably had to crotch in all his gear, set up his mics in the bathroom etc etc

I think the new singer is great. That said, good luck to him. He’s gonna need a thick skin because I think most will hate him because he’s not Belladonna or Bush.

The quality is a lot better than what I expected. You should hear songs recorded live from my girlfriend’s cell. There’s some shitty quality right there.
