专辑介绍

1993年在Warner公司旗下发行专辑《白噪音之声》(The Sound of WhiteNoise)时，乐队已经做出了最大限度的努力，以求吉他演奏更具当代风味。但是要想赶走自己多年的卡通形象是很困难的，尽管该专辑登上Billboard排行榜第7名，但它并未达到在以前的努力下应得的高度。乐队想有所改变，但丹尼斯皮茨的演奏风格和缺乏激情的舞台表现拖了其他人的后腿。他对乐队创作少有贡献，并且把自己排斥于乐队活动之外，这导致了他1995年离开乐队。

Anthrax replaced longstanding vocalist Joey Belladonna with John Bush (of Armored Saint) and released the surprisingly melodic and predictably pummeling Sound of White Noise. Producer Dave Jerden, who had worked with Bush on the last Armored Saint disc as well as releases for Alice in Chains and Jane's Addiction, helped Anthrax channel its energy into the shape of the post-Seattle metal sound. This ostracized some fans and attracted others, but the change is incidental; the music is relentless, like a brigade of tanks, and chances are you'll be too busy running for your life to worry who's at the wheel. Sound of White Noise cudgels the listener like nothing since Among the Living; Charlie Benante's drums are everywhere they want to be, a hailstorm of thundering blows backed up by Frank Bello's basslines. The guitars of Dan Spitz and Scott Ian forsake their usual showmanship for a sludgier attack that's downright brutal, although some will miss the solos that were often the highlights of their earlier work. And many enjoy the vocals of Bush; he has a lower-register voice than Belladonna, and the result is menacing, premeditated, and sinister. When he sings on &Hy Pro Glo& that &I'll beat you into overload,& you know he and the band will carry it through. There are so many good songs on Sound of White Noise that no two fans seem to agree on their favorites. &Only& is the obvious choice, &Invisible& and &Room for One More& are hard to argue with, &Hy Pro Glo& and &1000 Points of Hate& are too hot to contain, and even the cooled-down &Black Lodge& has its admirers. The infusion of melody into their metal gives the material a lot more personality than their last effort, Persistence of Time, though the lyrics are just as dark. True, Sound of White Noise isn't a peerless, groundbreaking album like Among the Living or I'm the Man, but it does return them to the esteemed state of metal masters (alongside Metallica and Megadeth) that is their birthright.
