This Heavy-Metal Thrash-Metal band was formed in 1981 in New York City USA, three years passed along with several line-up changes and finally, in 1984, two guitarists Scott Ian and Dan Spitz, bassist Dan Lilker, drummer Charlie Benante and vocalist Neil Turbin debuted with "Fistful Of Metal".

Lilker left the band before the release of the next album, 1985's "Armed And Dangerous", bassist Frank Bello joined the band and Turbin was replaced by Joey Belladonna.
That same year Anthrax signed a contract with Island Records who released "Spreading The Disease", the record took them into The Billboard 200 chart for the first time.
Two years later, "Among The Living" climbed The Billboard Top 200 chart reaching the #62, followed the 6-track EP "I'm The Man" that reached the #53 in U.S. chart and 1988's "State Of Euphoria" which peaked at #30 in the same chart; the quintet became one of the most acclaimed Speed-Metal Thrash-Metal band also in Europe.
In the early '90s they released two more charting albums, "Persistence Of Time" and "Attack Of The Killer B's", both ranked in the top 30 of The Billboard Top 200 list.

In 1992 Anthrax signed a new deal with Elektra, kicked Belladonna out of the band and replaced him with John Bush, their first album with Bush, 1993's "Sound Of White Noise", peaked at #7 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart, it became their most successful effort to date and generated "Only" which reached the #26 on Mainstream Rock Tracks chart plus another Active Rock top 40 hit: "Black Lodge".
Two years later the co-founder guitarist Spitz departed from the band, which continued as a four-piece, releasing "Stomp 442" but the record missed the top 40 of Billboard's Top 200 chart and then split from Elektra.

After a three-year hiatus, in 1998 the veteran Metal group issued their eleventh LP, "Volume 8 - The Threat Is Real".
Anthrax resurfaced five years later, with a new line-up: Charlie Benante on drums+guitars, Rob Caggiano as lead guitarist, Scott Ian on rhythm guitar, Frank Bello on bass and lead singer John Bush; they released "We've Come For You All" in May of 2003.
