The new guy is getting the bottom point of the pentagram into his head. And if you zoom in for a close up, his face is like a animal.

I have no specific qualm with a pentagram on an album cover, but it does seem a little weird to start doing such an obvious metal cliche 30 years into your career....it's not Anthrax were one of the bands throwing pentagrams or other similar imagery on everything back in the 80s.

It should. It's the same artist, Alex Ross.

It does seem odd to start doing it quite recently. I have been wondering this since WCFYA and chalk it up to the artist they use and the redesigned "A" logo.

Ha, I never even noticed the pentagrams on WCFYA. I don't own it, and I guess I never really gave the cover more than a quick glance. Funny.

Now I don't mind a bit of occult imagery but it doesn't suit Anthrax

Can't say I'm fussed by it in anyway, but now that you've mentioned it, it does seem rather pointless in 2015.

I have to be honest. I am not that excited for this release. I can't believe I just typed that about Anthrax. Sad

I can't imagine a world without Anthrax poker card and dice!

Also, I do not believe that much thought was given to a single song title there.

Looks like I'll be getting just the regular version. Those other editions have nothing of interest for me.

Whatever happened to "Soror Irrumator"?

That was recorded for the HBO 'Game of Thrones' soundtrack. Although it will probably show up on a re-issue or comp album sometime in the near future.

Oh boy! A double CD containing a useless live album? Sign me up! Zzzzzzzzzzz.

...actually, that's likely going to be the cheapest version, so it's probably the one I'll end up getting....

Yea, the one with the bonus live ep looks like the standard release, so I'll probably be going with that one too. Live music and a short ep. 2 of my least favorite things!! Woo-hoo. Rolling Eyes

A live Anthrax album excites me about as much as anal leakage...but let's not completely diss live recordings in the process.

Eh, I've been pretty vocal about my disinterest in live albums (and too short ep's for that matter) for quite some time now. That's nothing new. I will admit that I have turned a corner though recently and starting giving certain ones more of a chance than I have in the past.

Probably helps to listen to genres of music where musicians routinely surpass studio performances. Metal generally isn't one of them. Laughing very hard

If you'e suggesting Jethro Tull or King Crimson, I'd rather listen to the sounds of 2 alley cats f*cking. Razz

I meant that the one with the bonus live cd is the one I will be going with too and I just wish there was a standard cd that's standalone. I would only listen to the live cd maybe once and that's it. I should have cropped out your second sentence.

I was thinking jazz actually. So, nice attempt but you broke your neck on the dismount.

HA!! Shows what you know!! Jazz is the live format I've branched out into, Mr. Smarty Pants. Which, of course, you're fully responsible for too.
