My Favorite Band Of All Time!!
Today In 1987, Anthrax Released our 3rd Album "Among The Living" Through Megaforce Worldwide/Island Records.
The album was produced by the band and Jonny Z & noteworthy Producer & Engineer Eddie Kramer, & recorded @ Quadradial Studios In Miami, Florida, & Compass Point Studios In Nassau, the Bahamas.
"When Eddie said yes to us, it was a total headf**k", Scott Ian recalled. "And what was more incredible still was when our record label responded to my throwaway suggestion that we mix it in the Bahamas. I’d only said that because Iron Maiden had worked there".
The album marked the beginning of a new songwriting arrangement that would see the band through their most successful period.
"Among The Living" received widespread acclaim from contemporary & modern critics. It is generally considered the breakthrough album for Anthrax, Their best & most influential, which for its merit alone propelled the band among the icons of Thrash Metal.
