ANTHRAX - A Skeleton In The Closet (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO)

[@Palestina.non.grata86]

At nearly 54, Charlie Benante is still one of the best Thrash drummers on the scene, up there with Dave Lombardo, Tom Hunting of Exodus and Jon Allen of Sadus.

[@helltoupee6664]

He's unbelievable.. So fun to watch him play.

[@vinayaksridhar]

Definitely! Gene Hoglan from Testament as well for me.

[@karlkaliweba]

and don't forget Lars!

[@helltoupee6664]

And RIP To Nick Menza

[@saedt]

He looks like a hired hitman there to get the job done lol, and he gets the fucking job done, what a beast.

[@tiagosantiago6220]

Among The Living is the best album of Anthrax

[@jeremynelson5311]

Tiago Santiago I agree

[@pepsiman3832]

Yep

[@peternemes6770]

Absolutely, one of the best METAL albums ever!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Why do they make so much Indian stuff?

[@AllEliteDan]

This song will never not be awesome.

[@ovo4842]

but the crowd on that video =/

[@carlosoniacla]

OvO you obviously wasn't there. That was the craziest audience I've ever seen in a concert. In this song is not well shown. You should watch the entire dvd before posting

[@troylitton2436]

my wife watching this video religiously she told me this song was her favorite song by anthrax this is my first time listening to it I really don't know Anthrax music but my wife seems to know y'all's music and loves it very much she plays it when she's cleaning the house and my daughter is 7 years old and dances to Anthrax music.

[@MrEndei]

You don't know who is Anthrax, but your wife know?... you don't deserve that woman!

[@troylitton2436]

+Javier Rojas who are you to judge my wife is very awesome she loves all kinds of rock and roll and heavy metal music stop hating on my wife she's a very awesome person once you get to know her you will realize what you said was wrong so I would appreciate you not talking about my wife thank you have a wonderful day?

What a great family you have, bro!!! Cheers from Hungary!! 👍🤘😁

[@michaeldoiron1535]

Frank Bello needs to be recognized for his great playing.

[@simara1219]

Scott is the G.O.A.T. of rythm guitarists. And partly responsible for me naming my Son, Ian.

[@Dzombache90]

Wish they did "Keep it in the family", they haven't played that one in years. Awesome song.

[@Morningstar.Unofficial]

Keep it in the Family is a song that deserves way more credit, Persistence of Time in general needs more live play, Intro to Reality and Belly of the Beast are 2 of the best songs they're ever written musically.

[@Dzombache90]

Xaidcaveman Agreed.

[@tizianoparlanti7005]

Blood from persistence of time is a masterpiece

[@user-ry5oh7oc5q]

The live versions on killer b's are two of my favorites of theirs

[@MoveitorLoseit2]

They don't play it anymore because it has the N word in it

[@mastersofmetalllc8188]

Charlie B is just sick....he never fails. Scary how on time and consistent this guy is.

[@davidcollins7306]

One of my top 5 drummers, Guy is sick

[@aro5490]

and in addition to be a mindblowing drummer, he virtually writes all Anthrax's music too

He is awesome but as far as being on time,that's what real professional drummers do.not that hard.

[@TheRiehlThing42]

@ unlike Frankie, never on time, he's always...

[@edwarddorville9973]

And Lars is barely making it behind the kit 😂

[@PewPew1234567]

Anyway, Anthrax is fucking awesome live. I haven't yet seen a band that even comes close to the energy they have on stage. The crowd goes absolutely insane when this band plays.

[@zombislayerpwnsnoobs]

Suicidal Tendencies...? Ever heard of them? xD

[@PewPew1234567]

Nolan Moore I heard a few songs of them, but i don't like them that much, so i haven't seen them live

The best live band of the BIG 4!

[@dereklong4727]

Agreed

[@zombislayerpwnsnoobs]

I would give that one to Slayer

[@pyromaniarules]

Nolan Moore like every other band of the big four just stand around or walk a bit while playing. anthrax goes fucking nuts, just like they did in the 80s. anthrax may have gotten older but they have not lost thier live power and passion for playing.

[@BlasphemousVerses]

Nolan Moore Tom nails every song. I don't think his voice has ever been bad live. Seen about 6 live shows with them as the headliner.

[@The01Ace]

Nah. Not even close. Watch Metallica's Seattle '89 concert!!

[@bartsimpson9765]

Put some freaking power in it lead guitarist, you are doing an Anthrax solo, go crazy!

[@zicky96]

I totally agree...I hate this new guy, he always looks so bored onstage and unenergetic

[@mlbalexzz]

No stage presence what so ever. Basically a blob playing lead.

[@CultureShockGaming]

Jason Rodriguez I checked the band this guy is coming from, watched some live footages, and in fact everyone in his band except their singer is like that.. Even the statue of liberty seems more energetic than the whole band together ...

[@mikehamilton646]

hes new as fuck n the other boys are now old men cut em some slack guys holy fuck

[@jeremynelson5311]

mike hamilton Donais is sick as hell. Best guitarist since Spitz imo.

[@bigbeardodge7510]

Vinnie Paul, Charlie, and Jay Weinberg are the heaviest hardest and best drummers in the business. Rip Vinnie.

[@luisfloresjr2173]

Damn skippy

[@HorrorKidd88]

the arrangement of this version is killer....hopefully this is how they play this song all the time. A great way to 'freshen up' an older tune, but making it more killer in the process.

[@fatadam16]

Holy fuck this is heavy as hell and had me breaking shit for no reason! Did I mention I'm in the library lol

[@fv1005]

Haha

[@helltoupee6664]

Hell yeah, can't get much better than an old school Anthrax track. Benante is a fucking Demigod.

[@fv1005]

Joe Manzella still heavy as fuck too

[@odertube]

They're part of the big 4. No fucking around.

[@helltoupee6664]

Oderus Urungus I think back then they were the underdogs of the Big4... Which , 35 years later translates into the hardest working of them all.

[@ahdbw8494]

DUDE JOEY STILL HAS IT. So does Scott, Frank, and definitely Charlie. Charlie drums like he's 18 I swear. He's like 53 too.

[@SmashFan1337]

That f*cking bass playing tho!!! Rock the F*CK ON!!!!

[@derekrobertson4235]

this sounds so good- Charlie is killing it

[@sdny7111]

This is not selling out. This is Anthrax to the core. This is straight thrash speed Metal. Evolving like they have done with the new album coming out in 2016. Evolving as a band is not selling put. I know fans want 1 among the living after another. Well they obviously never played music. Imagine playing caught in a mosh for the last 30 years. They are not Metallica with load & reload. They take pride in thier music.

[@rajuneupane4087]

true dat

[@insanemtl5890]

+Sd Ny While I agree with everything else you said, I have to say that half of Load and ReLoad are great songs, the other half is filler garbage. But if they cut out the fillers and made it one single album, somewhat like this: - King Nothing - Bleeding Me - Devil's Dance - Hero Of The Day - Until It Sleeps - Low Man's Lyric - Wasting My Hate - Fixxxer - The House Jack Built - Where The Wild Things Are - The Outlaw Torn - Fuel they'd have a killer Rock album in their discography, in my opinion.

[@sdny7111]

+Jan InsaneMTL Yeah exactly rock not Metal. I think Fan's felt betrayed because after Justice. We waited for the Black album to be released. It was a big thing, record stores counting down the months & everything. Real Metal fans & what they got was a hard rock album. With a couple semi heavy songs. From thier under Bob Rock they continued to try to write hits & snubbed thier nose @_Metal. Gaining Fairweather fans. Honestly after that I hated them. Until death Magnetic. Which was good but still waiting on the next Justice of Puppets. Never going to happen now.

[@sdny7111]

+Jan InsaneMTL Justice or Puppets I meant. Nothing wrong with hard rock but when your The mighty Metallica there better be some Metal. Super Collider was the same shit but no one cared cause who expected anything? Now Anthrax & Megadeth are getting back to what we like. Good riffs solos & drums too. Slayer as well in my opinion. Lars will never be able to do what the others are doing now. Kirk can but Hetfield has lost alot vocally. Although they do have a great bassiest they could use more.

[@insanemtl5890]

Sd Ny The Black Album might be all about making Metallica commercially as succesful as possible, which worked, but I don't think Load and ReLoad fit that description. The good songs on there got great song writing and if you listen to tracks like Bleeding Me, you'll hear the typical Metallica sound, just slowed down and with that bluesy vibe added to it. I think they just did what they wanted, they didn't want to force themselves to put out another Metal album as they were in a Rock mood. That album would have sucked anyways, so instead we got good music which doesn't fit their name. I like the way they went.

[@Imadeyourun]

Like Anthrax chops ! They are not looking bored like some bands playin live, but they love to b there, you can feel that, cause they are not playing like robots, but 100% authentic, whats coming from them ! And Scott is like power generator of the band, just love his chops, he is 100% himself and he have found his style and sound coming from his core, no faking here, just pure power !

[@lunafiguereo5710]

Havr you noticed that this is the best most proffesional and tight band out of the big four? Just for that the deserve I indeed for they got. They are metal royalty

[@hifinphoto]

THIS is how to play live, with energy. With a drummer you can set your metronome to, and not rushing through the song but pick every note....Anthrax understands that playing slower means more enrgy. - this is the Opposite of what metallica is doing. And THIS is so much better.

[@Badat47]

[@drew65sep]

Anthrax is the epitome of what a Thrash/Speed band is supposed to be. But, unless this video was "dubbed" over by the actual studio version, their sound engineer is "stoopid good." The audio and sound clarity are "top shelf." I know that this vid and song were made quite some time ago (bout four decades now) but, it's still brilliant...keep dem vids comin.
