ANTHRAX-The edge of perfection (song review)

 A second released song from their new album contains indeed an atypical atmosphere. It's a different musical adventure. 

They really know to create an epic, beautiful and emotional metal song. It's hard but also a tender tune. There's a slow, silent intro. After it the mysterious storm comes. In this song these fast and slower parts are changing and shifting. 

It's a miscellaneous enough tune. Very, very odd song from this band. 

I gotta write it's something new. Some ideas and feelings that comes out from this tune are newer. Guitars plays odd, mysterious, tender, hard, fast and also slower riffs and melodies. Solo is pretty melodic and attractive. 

Bass is in some parts melodic and in others wild. Powerful drums are beating in the tempo of the song. Vocals are absolutely unique, in chorus breath-taking and stunning.

Vocals gives a special atmosphere to this tune. Lyric is truthful and impressive. 

I don't think it's the best Anthrax song but it's a piece of odd musical mass.

ANTHRAX-Worship music (my review)

The best thing was when Joey Belladonna has come back to band.

The band has become stronger than before. Instantly. 

Joey is a voice of Anthrax and today absolutely. 

This infectious musical worshiping starts with silent, mysterious intro "Worship". The first thrash attack comes with "Earth on hell". "The devil you know" is the angry and powerful face of metal. It's a great look to their past. "Fight 'em 'til you can't " is a wonderful song with guitar riff similar to "Gridlock" from Persistance of time album. Indeed, it's a great atmospheric, attractive tune. No boredom. 

"I'm alive" is like with a breath of State of euphoria album. Unmistakable Anthrax script is audible here. "Hymn 1" is a cello instrumental song. Another trace from their past years (Be all, end all).

"In the end" is an emotional hard tune. Of course catchy and mainly infectious. It's simply a perfect strike to your ears. 

A dangerous monster "The giant" is crushing the rest of this album. One of their best songs. These vocals are excellent here. Mainly in chorus. It's a bomb of wonderful melodies. "Hymn 2" is a drum instrumental song. After this short song there comes a mighty song "Judas Priest". It's a brilliant tribute to the band of the same name. It's a divine, heavy, thrash metal celebration.

"Crawl" starts comfortably. But it's a righteous Anthrax song. Not the hardest but I enjoy it. Infectious threat comes in "The constant". Full of excellent thrash metal atmosphere in their own style. 

The legacy and influence of Persistance of time album lives in this tune.

"Revolution screams" is no slow lullaby. It's just a scream! Explosion! Annihilation! The thrashing, insane vortex and vertigo. The right end of album. 

In this album guitars plays an unique, crushing riffs and beautiful melodies together with stormy bass and drums and perfect vocals. Sound of this album is pretty cool and explosive. Generally, this album is a golden star in metal constellation.

So worship thrash metal music! Worship this band!
