Together with Metallica, Megadeth, and Slayer, the band is regarded as one of the pioneers of the 1980s thrash metal scene and one of the \u201cBig Four\u201d of the genre. Along with Overkill and Nuclear Assault, they were among the earliest thrash metal bands to come out of the East Coast. Scott Ian, drummer Charlie Benante, bassist Frank Bello, singer Joey Belladonna, and lead guitarist Jonathan Donais make up the band\u2019s current lineup. Ian is the only member of Anthrax that has remained consistent throughout the band\u2019s several lineup changes.<\/p>\n The only two members of Anthrax to participate on every record are Ian and Benante, who took over for former drummer Greg D\u2019Angelo in 1983. Bello joined the group in 1984, taking Lilker\u2019s place. Anthrax released their first album, \u201cFistful of Metal\u201d (1984), with singer Neil Turbin after going through several different personnel. Later that year, Joey Belladonna took Turbin\u2019s place, stabilising the band\u2019s lineup. \u201cAmong the Living\u201d (1987), Anthrax\u2018s third album and the band\u2019s first major hit, is regarded as one of the best thrash metal albums.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Author Benedetta Baldin – 28.8.2026 Anthrax has announced a small-scale headline performance at Brooklyn, New York\u2019s Saint Vitus…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":332092,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[32804,98,100,99,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-332091","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-anthrax","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332091","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=332091"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332091\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/332092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=332091"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=332091"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=332091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
