John Bush Does Anthrax

[Pagan Saviour]

His Category 7 band mates backing him, just three dates so far. This stuff is too good not to play. Anthrax are dicks with their setlists anyways

There's about an hour's worth of decent Bush-era material (as well as The Greater Of Two Evils) so that could be good alright. I'd be surprised if it made it over here, if a tour comes out of it at all. I suppose they'll guage interest by how well those 3 dates sell.

[Pagan Saviour]

Ah I think there's more. Sound of White noise is a stone cold classic. Next two are poor but have one or two good tracks WHCFYA is a sting finish for him

[Paul keohane]

He's a great singer; but WCFYA is the only thing I liked.I could never get into any of thr other albums.But I can see the appeal for people into those albums.

[Carnage]

Stomp and Vol. 8 are shite bar 3 songs between them, SOWN and WCFYA have a few decent ones each. I enjoyed TGOAE, always thought he was the best singer they had.

[Bürggermeister]

Love Bushthrax, the only one of the big 4 to stay decent during the 90's and early 2000s. I would love to see this over here. Won't happen though.

I think your being very generous there lad!

[Pagan Saviour]

Gimme this over Anthrax playing Got the Time and Antisocial over and over

[The Great Cull]

John Bush era is the prime Anthrax. Sound Of White Noise and We've Come For You All are classics. Stomp 442 is deadly too. Volume 8 is flawed but consider what the rest of the big 4 were at in 1997 too. There's some great songs on Volume 8 though. Catharsis, Inside Out...

I've just been listening to The Greater Of Two Evils this evening and it's great.

Anthrax in The Ambassador in 2003 remains one of the best gigs I was ever at. They were amazing that night (and to a half empty Ambassador in 2004 too)

I'd be very keen to see if this comes this side of the Atlantic. I'd head to the UK or mainland Europe to see this. I did think it'd have been Caggiano, Crook, Vera and Dette he'd have with him.

There's another cracking setlist with songs you've missed there too

[Pagan Saviour]

Yeah I agree there's loads of other tunes SOWN is classic from start to finish - how could you leave out Potters Field or Only???

Regardless this is great news, not sure how much mileage he'll get using Category 7 as a backing band - those lads are busy bees. Dette would've been an obvious choice but Crook himself is busy - last I seen he was doing some Meatloaf tribute.

[Carnage]

I don't like either of those songs, very overrated album in general, that.

[Snare]

I'm with Pagan Saviour there. Also I'd have Black Lodge in there, 100%.

I'd love to see Bush in action in Europe.
