You were correct... Anthrax is a thrash metal band, but vocalist Joe Belladonna (who is native American) is more a fan of Journey and Whitesnake, rather than metal bands like Venom or Judas Priest. He joined in 1984 after they had fired their original singer Neil Turbin... Belladonna had never heard of Anthrax and showed up at his audition wearing a glam rock outfit 😂(He didn't know what kind of band they were... he thought he should 'look the part'... and he got the job and ditched the outfit!)

Anthrax was New York thrash while the other three were California-based. They were heavily influenced by New York hardcore. Slayer was influenced by more DC and California based hardcore bands. Metallica and Megadeth were much more into NWOBHM bands like Diamond Head, and classic hard rock like Budgie and Sabbath, but punk influenced them as well. Anthrax had the only trained singer of the four, and that made them stand out as well. Anthrax were also much more open to rap than anyone, paving the way for rap-rock crossover. They put out a rap-metal hybrid song called I’m The Man. If you check it out do the Def Uncensored version. There’s like 4 or 5 versions out there now.

There are books about the subject, but New York hardcore was a lot different than punk scenes in other cities. NY hardcore was hardcore hardcore. As it grew it had a lot of metal sound to the guitars, but they used to beat up longhairs that came to their shows. It was only as time wore on and hardcore bands naturally grew more metallic as they learned how to play that hardcore and metal fused into Crossover like DRI (not from NY) that everything sort of blended together. Thrash used to mean hardcore punk, and thus thrash metal became metal with thrash roots. Scott Ian and Charlie Benante from Anthrax formed a hardcore/thrash project called Stormtroopers of Death which was huge back in the day. The singer Billy had a hardcore background and the bassist was old Anthrax member Danny Lilker then in thrash metal band Nuclear Assault. They were a lot of fun but would probably be too un-PC today, plus Billy’s a maniac.

Been a while since you guys listened to some thrash metal. The lead singer Joey Belladonna is native American on his mothers side.

Anthrax ( along with Faith No More, Primus, RATM, and others ) was kind of an influence for future bands in the nu metal genre (rap/punk/metal fusion). Anthrax were popular in the '80s and'90s. Part of the New York/new Jersey crossover punk/metal thrash scene along with Overkill, Nuclear Assault, S.O.D., M.O.D., etc. East coast. They also collaborated at times with rappers back then from the east coast (Onyx, Public Enemy/Flavor Flav, etc). Check out more of Anthrax stuff! Also part of the Big 4, they toured many places together over the years. . Anthrax was more of the fun, goofy, versatile band compared to the others (Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer).

You need to listen to songs off of the album and Fistful Of Metal with Neil Turbin at the vocals. Then you’ll understand why they’re in the big four. That was the first anthrax album I bought and it’s hard!!

Anthrax vocalist Joey Belladona came from a background of much softer rock and was a huge Journey fan (for some reason 🤷♂️). It is his more melodic vocal style that differentiates Anthrax from the rest of the Big 4.

A lot of nu-"metal" bands were influenced by Anthrax, the retro-thrash or as I call em - pizza thrash - bands of the past 15 years or so were as well.

Anthrax were east coast, the other big 3 west coast, big reason why their riffs are just different...and Joey definitely sang different.

I was there when they shot this Video. It was in the Park Theater in Union City. Fun Fact Aerosmith and Run DMC's Walk This Way was shot in the same place.

So I don't remember the year but Anthrax decided to give Joey Belladonna the boot. They brought in the lead singer from another great band named "Armored Saint" who was just as heavily influenced by the New Wave of British Heavy metal as Metallica and Megadeth. They all started out at the same time and played mostly the same clubs. Metallica and Armored Saint were good freinds. The singer of Armored Saint was John Bush and John had been recruited into Anthrax. The very first album he did with them called "The Sound of White Noise" is phenomenal. I highly recommend you to check out the song "Only" by Anthrax with John on vocals.

Belladonna is one of the most understandable singers in metal, yet Brad still can't hear him clearly. 😅 As for who they influenced, holy crap, there would be no Linkin Park or any of the rap/metal fusion bands w/out Anthrax.

Would recommend reacting to Antisocial (or something else off State Of Euphoria). Antisocial was the heavily played Anthrax song during the history making Headbangers Ball tour with the Big Three (Metallica wasn't a team player at the time).
