These videos all include<br \/>\nvocalist Joey Belladonna and guitarist Dan Spitz.<\/p>\n<p>This collection starts with a live-in-Germany version of the<br \/>\nfrantic &#8220;Metal Thrashing Mad.&#8221; It is interesting that the band<br \/>\nincludes this song as it was 1) released on the Fistful of Metal<br \/>\nalbum and 2) that album came out prior to Joey Belladonna joining<br \/>\nthe band. Early fans will appreciate the tip of the hat to a<br \/>\nclassic Anthrax song. &#8220;Indians&#8221; and the live version of &#8220;Among The<br \/>\nLiving&#8221; capture the band in their primal forms. The video of<br \/>\n&#8220;Indians&#8221; is an edited version of the album version. &#8220;Living&#8221;<br \/>\ncaptures the band as an intense live act.<\/p>\n<p>The other videos do serve their purpose of showing the band as<br \/>\nit has progressed over the years. There is a striking contrast<br \/>\nbetween the performance video of &#8220;Among The Living&#8221; and the<br \/>\nperformance video of &#8220;Got The Time.&#8221; The &#8220;Among The Living&#8221; video<br \/>\nhas dark lighting and seems to focus more on the band in a live<br \/>\nenvironment, onstage. &#8220;Got The Time&#8221; has equally dark lighting, but<br \/>\nfocuses directly on the energy that comes from when the band plays<br \/>\nlive. The band is set up in an apartment and comes across as just<br \/>\n&#8220;jamming&#8221; and getting off on their music. The other noteworthy<br \/>\nvideo is for the group&#8217;s collaboration with Public Enemy, &#8220;Bring<br \/>\nTha Noize.&#8221; This video serves as a visual testimony to the energy<br \/>\nthat comes through on the audio version.<\/p>\n<p>As with most DVDs, some bonuses are included. The &#8220;I&#8217;m The Man&#8221;<br \/>\nlive montage captures the humor of the band. The video commentary<br \/>\nby the band offers insight into the idea behind the videos as well<br \/>\nas the back story of where the band was when the video was<br \/>\nfilmed.<\/p>\n<p>This DVD is an entertaining retrospective collection that shows<br \/>\nhow Anthrax&#8217;s sound has remained heavy throughout the years, and<br \/>\nshowcases the band visually at various points in their career<br \/>\nbetween 1985 and 1991.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":27274,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"artist":[5959],"rating":[5646],"class_list":["post-38634","review","type-review","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","artist-anthrax","rating-rating-a"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/38634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38634"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/38634\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27274"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=38634"},{"taxonomy":"rating","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rating?post=38634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
