Noo Yawk's Gift To Thrash Metal! →[More:] Guys who collaborated with Public Enemy, did covers of Joe Jackson and the Temptations (among others), and most definitely did
not check their sense of humor at the door. Yes, I'm talkin' bout
ANTHRAX! Scott Ian, Dan Spitz, Charlie Benante, Joey Belladonna & Frank Bello, five dudes from the boroughs who were in it when nobody was anybody, and embraced metal, harcore punk,classic rock, and hip-hop with equal fervor. Dig it bros, get caught in a mosh!
I'm The Man [Uncensored Version] (one of a select few listenable marriages of metal and hip-hop, based on the chords to 'Hava Nagila' no less!)
Startin' Up A Posse (a hilariously rocking anti-censorship rant)
Bring The Noise (with Public Enemy) (only fair since Chuck & Flav give them a shout out - 'Wax is for Anthrax, still it can rock bells' - in the original)
I Am The Law (a musical tribute to Judge Dredd, a beautiful thing)
These tunes were hugely popular amongme and my friends back in the day, and they serve as a great example that even the hardest music can retain it's sense of fun. Enjoy.
