I can understand being a Belladonna nutswinger. Him and Bush kind of signify two different eras of Anthrax. Belladonna being the speed metal/thrash era and then from 93 onwards with Bush it is more of a Grungey Heavy Metal that is much harsher sounding. Both are good in my opinion but I prefer the Bush era because it feels more raw and has definitely aged better. Is the same reason why I prefer the Rust In Peace lineup of Megadeth from the nineties, the songs and albums that band wrote have aged better and sound less cheesy than the eighties speed metal stuff.
i think they went in more of a "Panthrax" direction... after sound of white noise, pantera were the only "real" metal band selling any fucking records.. i think they were trying to ride that wave... they had a similar vibe from stomp 442 thru WCFYA... ( not to mention SEVERAL pantera member appearances on all 3 albums)..
I've never even bothered to own an Anthrax album after his departure. I don't care if they went in a harder direction.
i highly recommend you check some of it out.... i never liked belladonna 'thrax....musically, it was great... vocally, a little cheesy....
Bush immediately gave them the vocal muscle to match the music....
check out " the greater of two evils".. it's a bunch of recently rerecorded pre-bush anthrax songs with bush singing.... just awesome.
bush was the right man for the job. he fit like a glove.
when anthrax decided to ride the "reunion" wave in an attempt to make some bank, they kinda left bush hanging in the wind....
john bush is a proud man... and has a huge hand in what most would consider anthrax's "artistic" peak... they were coming off what many consider to be their best album since SOWN, and were primed to follow that up with another great record when he was told he would have to tour with joey belladonna as part of a reunion tour.... it was a slap in his face
so he walked....
it was at that moment i boycotted anthrax....thy kick john to the curb for joey... they get fucked by joey... and then say "well fuck john... let's try to get corey taylor".... then that didn't work.... they get this new kid..... "oh he's so awesome.."
yeah, ummmm.....nope
nelson sounds like a cross between john bush and phil anselmo....:rolleyes:
then they fire his ass.... and call up john...who never shoulda left in the first place... boycott over.
for now...

Fuck Yes.... I've been boycotting all things Anthrax without Bush... Looks like that boycott may come to an end soon..... 
#673 Re: The Sunset Strip » Best album of the 90s elimination- Round 16 » 900 weeks ago
what the fuck?
ten and dirt neck and neck for the boot?
two fantastic fucking records.... muthafuckaz best recognize...
i went ahead and voted for UYI 2....
because UYI1, The Black Album, Ten AND Dirt piss all over it....
... and before anyone gets pissed.. i love UYI2... my favorite GNR song is on it....probably 2 or 3 outta my top 10.... but ten is fucking amazing... get the "grunge" label outta your fucking heads... they were only called that because they were from fucking seattle...just listen to it and think "rock"... it's a perfect, emotionally epic, brilliant ROCK record . I agree they were never the same after.. for better or worse... but that album is fucking timeless...
Ditto for dirt... AIC weren't fucking "grunge"... they were a hard rock band with an original vibe that has often been imitated.. but not even close to duplicated...
To be honest... every album up there is timeless... but IMO UYI2 is the weakest of them...
