Here is the most played song live off every Anthrax album.
Formed in 1981 by guitarist Scott Ian, Anthrax cut their first demo in 1982 and, after convincing the Zazulas to sign them to Megaforce Records, the band released their debut album Fistful of Metal in 1984.
While various members have come and go, there have been a couple constants alongside Ian in the lineup. Drummer Charlie Benante has been featured on all 11 full length records while bassist Frank Bello has been holding down the low end since 1984, first appearing on the thrash group’s second effort, Spreading the Disease.
There are many distinct eras to the band, some of which are more popular than others, as the stats here indicate — there’s a gap of over 1,000 regarding live performances of the most played song off one album compared to another.
