ANTHRAX - THE GREATER OF TWO EVILS
THE WORSE OF TWO EVILS.
I must start by saying that I don't like the idea of re-recording old songs with modern studio technique. It's kinda like re-painting the Mona Lisa, it just don't make any sense especially when most fans seems to think that the old records sounded better in every imaginable way.They should instead remake their new songs to sound like their old instead, that I would have approved of.
Anyhow, the big takeaway from this record is to hear John Bush's take on the Belladonna/Turbin songs. Which doesn't make much sense to me either since I prefer the vocals of Turbin and Belladonna.
This album was released as when Anthrax had their 20 year anniversary. The production is quite good and the songs sound as kinda as expected. This was also John Bush's last studio album with Anthrax so in some way it's nice to put an end to the Bush-era by looking in back the rearview mirror and combining the new era with the old. I do think he is a great vocalist but I didn't like the direction Anthrax took under him so if you're a John Bush fan, then check this one out if not then you could certainly skip this one.
