Yeah it's clear they just stick with each other. Both parties bolloxed without the other.


Bush has a serious band around him now. I did initially hope he'd have both Paul Crook and Jon Dette involved because they had history with Anthrax but Bittner is no slouch and Demmel appears to be able to morph into any role he's required to.

Anthrax in their current form will continue to limp along playing small headline tours and supplementing it by supporting Megadeth, Maiden et al.
While Joey is still a decent singer, his inability to deviate from that setlist is baffling. Going back to the big 4 shows, he wiped his hole with his attempt at Only and he "sang" his bits of Am I Evil sounding like he has a mouthful of chewy sweets... he didn't even form real words for it  :laugh:

Bush was always the better singer, imagine what they'd have been like with him on vocals for the classic albums. The Greater Of Two Evils is mighty, the best thing they recorded with him really - the albums proper are OK to poor.

Great singer; , ive tried, but most of his era of Anthrax does nothing for me.

They were always savage live here with Bush. I still enjoy his four albums a lot and that setlist is very much to my tastes. The rerecorded stuff is fucking class, too.

Joey just doesn't like heavy music, I am sure. His recent guest appearance with Pantera, where he hadn't a fucking clue of the two words which make up the chorus to Walk, makes you wonder what the cunt thought he was doing when he went onstage 😂

That being said, the two albums since he came back are alright, without being amazing, and I'll check out the new one whenever they finally release it.

Ah they're just ok. I don't think I've ever really gone back to them which says it all.

It seems like Charlie and Scott would rather do anything else. Anthrax is the side gig.

The two return albums are good, they were better than I expected tbh.

The Bush gig in 03 was class too.


How does Bush handle the Belladonna stuff? They've both got quite a different range.

He handled it well, just listen to The Greatest Of All Evils for instance. Some of those would be my preferred versions of those songs.

I thought it was great at the live performances I caught and on record Greater of Two Evils is Brilliant.


I watched the full LA show footage form the other day - so good. The man is some singer, i love all those Bush era albums, thought they played very well. Id go see that in Ireland any day.

Seen a clip from Chicago which seems to have gone well too.
