AMONG THE LIVING anyone?

Spreading The Disease is the top for me.
Spreading The Disease is my favorite, too - great songs throughout but Lone Justice and Medusa...those two I just love. I also really dug Among way back when and it is a great album and forever will hold some awesome memories, just as a whole the songs on Spreading are the pinnacle for Anthrax for me.

Pretty damn good set here with the band performing at the old L'Amour's in Brooklyn as Satan's Lounge Band (this was in 89 so there's stuff up to and including State Of Euphoria in the setlist) :
 
6550’s I think and of course heavily boosted. 800’s get that gain easy when you kick ‘em in the front and dump your mids. But wouldn’t surprise me if there wasn’t an outboard EQ involved in the studio. Aphex or Furman.
The gain yeah, but the tightness is very un-Marshally even with outboard EQ.

It is confirmed 800's? I'm wondering if there's some MarkII or III in there, sure as hell sounds like it.

I would have to think there’s at least some Studio goosing going on

Maybe they borrowed an amp or two from their Bay Area friends 😅
 
Also…as always…AI has the answer

My favorite of the Anthrax albums. "NFL" is great! "Caught in a Mosh" was all of our favorites in high school.

I have dug most of Anthrax's albums, some more than others. I actually loved the albums with John too.
 
Huge anthrax fan. ATL is a great guitar tone. Scott has always said it was a 800 a tc preamp and his old soloist with a jb
That sounds about right. When I met him about two years ago, he said that he has been using a JB, all the way back. That guy is the palm mute king. When you hear S.O.D. songs, that chug he gets is just so good and same for the Anthrax stuff.
 
Always liked the tones and chunky mutes, but never could get much into their music.
I liked some of their stuff OK, not a hater by any means. State Of Euphoria was probably my favorite album as a whole.
