Thrash metal pioneers Anthrax are given their just due on KILLER A'S, a greatest-hits compilation documenting the band's long career. From the early "mosh it up" days of the Joey Belladonna era to the '90s John Bush-fronted lineup, KILLER A'S contains 16 tracks picked by the fans themselves.
Two N.Y. legends unite on "Bring the Noise," a rap/metal reworking of Public Enemy's anthem against hypocrisy. Also included is the band's first turn at rap, the comic classic "I'm the Man" (originally an English B-side). Though the band originally intended for the Beastie Boys to rap on it, the song nevertheless became Anthrax's biggest seller. John Bush's vocal talents are displayed on tunes that range from the Pantera-like "Hy Pro Glo" to the dark love song "Crush." Mr. Belladonna's skills take veteran metal fans back to the days of mega hair and mega speed. "Among the Living" perfectly combines metal and punk, while 1985's "Madhouse" helped shape the face of thrash metal along with bands like Metallica and Exodus. If you only own a couple of albums from either Anthrax era, or are simply curious as to what makes Anthrax a great band, KILLER A'S is a must have.
