On the 23rd episode of One Last Breath, your hosts discuss the 8th album by Thrash Metal big four member Anthrax titled “Volume 8: The Threat Is Real.” Anthrax, while being the least popular of the big four, carved out a very influential and noteworthy career for themselves. After putting out classic albums such as “Spreading the Disease” and “Among the Living,” Anthrax found themselves at a crossroads when lead singer Joey Belladonna was fired from the band in 1992. They hired singer John Bush of Armored Saint and tried their hand at a more grunge oriented style. A couple of albums later Anthrax found themselves at the critical low of their career in 1998 with Volume 8. Most point out the uninspired and generic song writing, and the lack of success the band has in adapting to the changing metal scene. Is this the weakest moment of Anthrax’s career? Is it actually an underrated mid career thrash gem? Tune in this week to find out! Follow all of our socials here:
