I understand the aversion to numerous disambiguation pages, but I think this instance fairly screams for one. Am I wrong?

I think it should be Anthrax (band) -- Zoe

Yeah, but it...it is now -- Michael


I agree about the naming, so I've moved it. I'd make a disambiguation page, but I don't have time to fix all the links right now. If Anthrax isn't going to be a disambiguation page, then Anthrax disease should be moved there, and a disambiguation block put in place. Anthrax just quietly redirecting to Anthrax disease, as it does now, doesn't seem like very good thing to me. --Camembert

Dan Spitz was never part of the original Among the Living lineup. He joined the band during the Sound of White Noise album. HawaiiArmo

You have a brain tumour, Dan Spitz left after that album, hes been with the band since Fistful of Metal.


Most thrash metal bands seem to have a picture of band on their page; can we get one for anthrax? Anouymous 11:35, 17 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Nope - Dan Spitz was around long, long before White Noise. John Bush was the only new addition for that album.

Discography

To tidy the page and in line with guidelines, I'm moving some discographies to pages of their own on Jan 1 unless anyone has an objection. I've already earmarked Iron Maiden (band) and Megadeth and I'd like to do the same for Anthrax. It will make the main article shorter and tidier. Obviously, a link to the new discog. article will be included. IainP (talk) 16:31, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Done. New page could do with some more wiki-tablification(!) as currently only albums and singles are in table format. IainP (talk) 20:43, 1 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Surfer"???

This may just be pickiness on my part but the members of Anthrax didn't wear brightly colored "surfer" clothes until the album State Of Euphoria and even then it was only for the one album, posibly the following tour. But in every picture of the band that I have from 1990 and after they were not dressed this way. If anyone has proof other wise please share it. By the way I am probably not going to bother correcting this in the artical, because as I see it is only a minor detail and it helps to prove the point in the artical that they were different from the other thrash bands at the time. But if someone would like to correct it on their own,that would be good.--Anthraxrulz 08:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

John Bush? Is he a member of Anthrax or not?

John Bush has been the voice of Anthrax for nearly 13 years and I am confused. Is John Bush a member of Anthrax or not? If John Bush has indeed left Anthrax, then it's a sad loss for Anthrax. This my POV but I believe that SOUND OF WHITE NOISE is their best album. Joey Belladonna left Anthrax and when he left, the band improved 100%. I didn't like their Persistence of Time album and the song, GOT THE TIME was horrible.

Well, if John Bush has indeed left Anthrax, then it's Anthrax's loss.
