![]() ![]() There are no weak tracks on this album at all. When I first saw the video for "Only" my jaw hit the floor and I remember thinking "THIS is Anthrax?" I bought the album the next day and was amazed at how track by track it just seemed to get better and better, from the melodic "Only" to the ultra-aggressive "Packaged Rebellion", "Burst" and "Hy Pro Glo" to the downright haunting "Black Lodge". John Bush brought an incredible energy to the band, resulting in one of the most high octane metal albums I've ever heard. Sound of White Noise is a tour de force performance by a band that obviously felt they had something to prove after the loss of long-time vocalist Joey Belladonna. Bush's energetic and intense yet still melodic vocal style just seemed like such a better fit for Anthrax's brand of thrash, and I still view that lineup's debut - 1993's Sound of White Noise - as the best Anthrax album ever. I was always aware of Anthrax growing up, but aside from their goofball "I'm the Man" single, the band never really made much of an impact on me until they replaced vocalist Joey Belladonna with Armored Saint's John Bush. ![]()
