Video: Anthrax Recall the Making of Sound of White Noise

In the latest episode of their ongoing Anthrax 40 for 40 anniversary retrospective video series, Anthrax take a look back at their first album with John Bush, Sound of White Noise.

There are plenty of interesting stories from the band members themselves — including Bush, Scott Ian, Charlie Benante, Frankie Bello, and Dan Spitz — but the most interesting part may actually be the last six minutes, in which a series of all-star guests discuss the record. To Anthrax’s credit, they allow this discussion to show both sides of fandom; some of the musicians interviewed, like Slipknot’s Corey Taylor and Rob Zombie, are enamored of White Noise, while others, like John 5 and Living Colour’s Vernon Reid, are less so (albeit in a polite manner, natch). So if you’re one of the people who doesn’t love Bushthrax, at least you’re in good company.

Watch the latest episode below. Other participants include Kerry King, Slash, Henry Rollins, and Brian Posehn.
