Anthrax - Medusa (Live 1987)

[Powerslave234]

In some black metal bands and death metal bands the singers just yell and its freakin annoying. Joey Belladonna actually sings normally. Death Metal ruined metal in my school. Everybody I know in school thinks metal is just scream.

[666shenanigans]

Am I The Only High School Kid In2012 Watching This o.o

[Thrash120994]

@Cadelk87 FUCK YOU & THESE SURFER SHORT WEARING FAGGOTS CALLED ANTHRAX!!!BlackMetal is Toooooo BRUTAL for your SOFT PUSSY ASS!!!Try listening to DARKFUNERAL they make AMTRAK i mean ANTHRAX sound like the HANSON BROTHERS!!!

[FUCKPARKS]

@abyess9

dude.. its not about how brutal it sounds u fuken moron. u sound like a little youngster who barely got into metal and now makes a big fuss on what sounds heavier.. Black metal and Thrash metal are different genres. Its not the same shit, therefore, they have a different style. idiots like u are a disgrace.. u have a poor way of thinking u litlle kid

[ANTHON0891]

I LOVE YOUNG ANTHRAX!!! early anthrax sounds great!!!

[ROCKKERFAT]

I LOVE THE MAIN RIFF!!!!

[TheScarletRemnant]

Isn't this song about getting sexual disease?

[taytaylon]

@TheScarletRemnant naw its about the mythical creature. their big nerds man but i like it

[TheScarletRemnant]

@taytaylon It's my favourite band heh. But still listen/read the lyrics and tell me that it couldn't be about Sexual Disease.

[philonthis20]

@TheScarletRemnant Its about the Gorgon Medusa, this nasty skank with snakes on her head, who basically lives on her island and turns dumbasses that try to get laid into stone then dry humps them for all eternity

[movano666]

to tylko ANTHRAX

[dayman152]

Thank God Scott Ian shaves his head now xD

[xiLikeTurtlez]

SCOTT IAN WITH HAIR!! XD

[GabesGames]

OMFG, this song and this anthrax band member setup is FUCKING INSANE. Someone invent a time machine pls!

[END6O6V6ELICO]

@GabesGames

You don't need a time machine to listen and to see this kind of sound, just play guitar and drums, or learn it and do your own projects.

I agree with you about the old classics and the bands old members setups, but when a band begins to record and to play shit the only way we got is turn our back to them and searching for new bands that plays the old school stuff again!

[joshmattg]

haha aww look at bello at 0:45 with his little mop haha adorable! wouldnt mind havin hair like that, give it another year and it'll be long enough :L

[skipfuckdie]

thats the most boring band ive ever seen, try out sum king diamond u anthrax faggots

[AoDxGaming]

[codebabe]

Joey sounds amazing here.

[91nickt]

[TheOldGrampies]

[Brazard23]

You could tell that Ian was going to go bald just by looking at his hair in this vid hehe

[ossian53]

Scott Ian with long hair!!!!

[Fantarulz83]

@abyess9 all i know is youre trying to piss us off. Goodbye an while your at it go motorboat bieber's little girl pussy.

[Brazard23]

MAN the hair back then was wild! Belladonna still rocking it though and he looks just as awesome in my opinion!

[MrSlashintraining]

Joey Belladonna FTW!

[FenderFM212]

They were never afraid to acutally show they were having fun.

[karter005]

@strikingjoe01 thats best part of it , you fucking douche eat a dick.

[karter005]

i fucking love anthrax! joey rules! anthrax for life! thank you for so much kick ass music ! <3 stay true stay metal! thrash rules! \m/

[RottingSam]

What's wrong with Ian...? This guy is not getting old...? His face is the same last 25 years.... WTF ?

[adamfinspain]

i was at this gig ( i think! ) if it was with Crimson Glory ( who sucked big time ) and Metal Church ( who absolutely rocked ) i was there.

could have sworn it was February 1987, either way, probably the best gig ive ever seen,

age dulls the memory for dates i guess, but not the buzz,

fucking cool night in London,we tore the shit out of the Hammersmith Odeon!

as did Metal Church and Anthrax.......

[Truga88]

@adamfinspain I believe this is Anthrax's Oidivnikufesin VHS recorded 16th November 1987, although it must be pleasure to see part of big 4 at its best together with legends such as Metal Church

[adamfinspain]

@Truga88 thanks bud, as i said,awesome gig at hammersmith,difficult to say who was best,Anthrax were crazy, metal church were sublime.

at 42 years of age i suppose i should have grown out of it, problem is that it sounds as good today as it did back then! HAHAHA!

[GillesGerais]

@yourmom468 I hope he is,.. no more of these other fuckheads. i only like anthrax with belladona, they eat shit with anyone else.

[GillesGerais]

@yourmom468 i hope he is... that would be good. no more of these other fuckheads.

[deathnroller]

the guitar solo is kinda short but man I love it!!

[abyess9]

anthrax is the''GAYEST''and ''SOFTEST''metal band''EVER''!!!FUCK THESE SURFER SHORT WEARING COCKSUCKERS!!!

[guitarmaster509]

@abyess9 listen to Gung Ho from anthrax. has a way more violent sound. they are thrash afterall. but i still think this kicks the shit out of slipknot and canibal corpse. im sick of that growly shit. no one can sing anymore.

[guitarmaster509]

@abyess9 Try saying that after you hear gung ho.

[starvinmarvin72]

@abyess9 Fuck you

[motorslav]

@abyess9 With all due respect you are total idiot!

[Tyleriscoolx2]

@abyess9 Little extreme, don't you think?

[FUCKPARKS]

@abyess9

hey idiot. u dont like anthrax then get the fuk out. why are u watching this on the first place. the beatles arent anything compared to anthrax. that doesnt mean that im going to go their video and comment how gay and soft they sound. u know why.? cus its a whole differnt genre. u sound like a little kid in highschool.

[GillesGerais]

charlie the drummer is definatley better than lars ulrich

[guitarmaster509]

@GillesGerais Yes

[MAGGOTSOlDIER626]

@GillesGerais there are alot of drummers better ulrich he doesnt have much speed or variation

[deathnroller]

@abyess9 so sissy that behemoth steals anthrax riffs...

[TheTydeke]

@abyess9 I guess if you want to call a band that was one of the most influential metal bands posers, then it really just shows how little you know about music. Please stop talking before you make yourself look like even more of a trolling idiot.

[dimejr97]

@abyess9 dude ur a fucking faggot And no they wudnt mate Pantera wud destroy your emo bands mate

[thrshr2112]

@abyess9

[VicRattlehead79]

Amazing band!!! 

[akathasamurai]

I've never been a huge anthrax fan, but I fucking love this song, along with Indians. And it's really funny to see Scott Ian with hair!

[joaopedro6]

[mark123469]

[Anthrax1666]

This is even better than the studio version ! Anthrax forever!  \m/

[6IRON6metal6]

Belladona is back in game with Anthrax !

[007Mechanix]

One of the best and underrated metal bands of all time!

[fartbag123123]

[abyess9]

Only a DUMB FUCK would say"hey let's write a song about medusa"! I can't beleave I was into these fags at one time!!!blackmetal would just kill this garbage!!!this is soft metal 4 the light hearted,its poison on speed!!! AND FUCK ANYONE WHO THINKS DIFFERENT!!!

[CroMetallican]

@abyess9 MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!BLACK METAL IS JUST SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....all you need to do is headbang hard and gallop open E string nothing more....THIS IS REAL MUSIC!!!REAL METAL....TRASH 4EVER

[satansscepter]

@abyess9

OMG don't look at this then, and by the way all black metal dudes like you, listen 2 years to black metal, then realise that thrash is MUCH better, and then they become die hard Thrash wanabes... Stupid kid ! you are 14 year old? right? respect other music moron !!!

[VictoriaVikernes]

@abyess9 Right, the hip hop on your page tells me that you aren't a true black metal fan. Anyway, black metal topics usually touch on mythology and not just Norse. Duh. Poseur. Anyway, Anthrax is awesome. You just don't have taste.

By the way, everyone else, quit being dicks about black metal. Don't tell people to be open minded about music, then start bitching about black metal. Like satanssceptor -.-

[cadelk87]

@abyess9 Fuck me? No, fuck you. Black Metal = organs and make up. heh heh heh......

Thrash til Death mother fucker

[magicmanyea]

I wish metal singers would fuckin sing again...too much growly bullshit nowadays.

[swootwapa]

@magicmanyea

FUCK YES... good thing belladonnas back.

[mitjakaramatsov]

@magicmanyea : Exactly! And wear pajamas pants. There's no fun in metal anymore..

[jesse17ful]

@magicmanyea too much growly bullshit and too much high pitched screaming nowadays

[32riot]

watch?v=51qczdSz19w

[CurseOfThePharoah]

looks like great gig

wouldve been cool to see thrash bands in the 80s

[enix165]

I can't believe anyone could want John Bush back when they've got this god back on vocals. =P Prolly my fave Anthrax song. I fuckin' LOVE it. =P

[WorlddestroyGuy]

hahaha that joey is back means that we have even longer to wait for the next anthrax album but ho gives a shit JOEY IS BACK AND THAT MATTERS

[93Matu]

05.10.10 ANTHRAX REUNITES WITH JOEY BELLADONNA << from Anthrax official website!

[007Mechanix]

Joey is Back!

[Friedmett]

His back again acording to the latest news! We only need Danny Spitz on Jackson guitars!

[sampo0007]

JOEY BELLADONNA IS BACK!!!!

[gordonbrown76]

Don't get me wrong, i love Anthrax's 80's output, but no way is Joey better than John Bush.

[mandalorianzwarrior]

joey can sing circles around bush

[MrHuey578]

@gordonbrown76

I believe Joey is better than Bush(IMO), but we all have different taste so there is no right or wrong

[favela420]

KINGS OF SPEED METAL

[thrashdrummer9]

man if only the can get joey back for the big four tour...

[kickdadonkey666]

U can get this with the deluxe edition of Among the living

[anno9876]

heyyy.... this is a studio vers.NOT org.

[nataskaos]

best lineup by far.

This video tape got worn out at our house when I was a kid!

Hell yes.

[pacu420]

Yes, I had the VHS too. I think I still have it in a box somewhere.

[abdulbashur]

Incredible.... This song is part of one of my favorites Liverpool concerts.... Oidivnikufesin of 1987.. Recorred in the hammersmith. Where can i find the full concert????

[vindikation]

Belladona was the reason I even started listening to Anthrax back in 1986 from an MTV video. I heard the song and then his vocals..."holy fuck" now "this" guy knows how to sing. Really the only thrash metal guy that has actually "sung". This video shows just what a talented singer he is...live no overdubs or lip syncs...this guy is bad ass!!!

[MetalThrashingMad87]

yes man!!!

btw do you know why he was out of Anthrax ?

[QuietusEternus]

My fave Anthrax song!!!

[TheGreatDuck]

Belladonna is Bruce Dickinson of thrash.

[SATANSCHILD954]

i miss this lineup.

[007Mechanix]

@SATANSCHILD954

He's Back!

Joey is Back!

[GillesGerais]

@SATANSCHILD954 so do i, i hate john bush and theother guys, i want belladona back

[mattallica667]

Joey is an AMAZING singer....one of the best in thrash metal and this song shows it. Scott ian is BEAST!!!!....just had to say it

[derkommisar]

Exactly...his voice needs a litlle getting used to...but in effect he IS definately the best choice Anthrax ever made!

[rockeir0107]

not at fucking all!!! Belladona is a great singer, for sure!! but he's not even close to John Conelly!! JC is the greates one in Thrash Metal!!!

[Grauenstadt]

I would have to whole-heartedly disagree.

[guitarplayerk11]

when anthrax was the shit

[MikePortnoy1991]

why was belladona kikcked out?he has a fantastic voice in live performances!

[treesoul1]

JOEY BELLADONA was Anthrax best singer by far. Its painful that the band cant get on with him, just put aside differences. He has amazing youthful energy and has a completely refreshing agile voice. GET THIS DUDE BACK

[TheInfernalNightmare]

@treesoul1 i completely agree, i still ,ove anthrax without them but they were amazing with joey

[redmarauder7]

@treesoul1 i prefer neil turbin he sounds like halford

[sampo0007]

@treesoul1 JOEY BELLADONNA IS BACK!!!!!

[007Mechanix]

@treesoul1

Joey just joined!

He's Back to rule the World!

[ScythingTouch]

@treesoul1 He's now back with them. Summer tour and a new album. All I have to say is the world is now a better place.

[DomG1900]

@treesoul1 Joey's back with Anthrax now! :D

[DrumBum561]

@treesoul1 Not only that, but Ian said they got Bush to sing because "[They] had someone who could sing like a butterfly, and sting like a bee, but [they] needed a lion." Gay. Belladonna can't be beat. notice how after they got Bush their sales dropped. you would think they would take the hint.

[Tettuli]

@treesoul1 he is back, so remove this comment

[MrWer1138]

@skaterdouche4 Seen the original line up like 4 or 5 yrs ago,They sounded amazing live!

[rwoods2k]

@treesoul1 charlie doesnt like his voice.

[karter005]

@treesoul1 so true!

[VicRattlehead79]

@treesoul1

You probably already know, but he's Back!!!

Joey is back!!! Now it's really awesome!

[gdsmzroll]

@treesoul1 But his back :)

[GillesGerais]

@treesoul1 agree, john bush and the others guys suck balls.

[80smetalchild]

@treesoul1

hey, hes back now! saw them a few weeks ago at the carnae tour. he sounded fucking amazing!

[twojemytoes]

to me anthrax are the best they always seem like they are having so much fun like they are just doin whatever no one telling em what to do just having a good time being stoked to play metal and i think thats cool they like comics and are like fuck ya comics are sick and dont give a fuck what anybody says

[misspriss6796]

hes an awesome dancer

[ProfessorIgor]

every time I have seen them play this live, it's always slightly up-tempo... I love it.

[CkY3221]

fucking great band

[LukeCFH]

a TRUE ANTHRAX ending with PERSISTENCE OF TIME.

[wealldie12]

@ LukeCFH:

Yes i believe when Belladonna left anthrax, and they got John Bush, who sucks in anthrax first of all. After Spitz left they were just a cover band!

[nyckelmannen]

at their best!

its just two anthrax albums that was missing at this point...

state of euphoria n persitence of time

[JudasFuckingPriest69]

joey belladonna might be one of the best singers eva he is up there with the mighty metal god rob halford and bruce dicken son and dio that is how fuckin good and underrated he is

[Linkinka06]

OLD SCHOOL!!!! I love this song!

[zyphoid666]

Fucking nailed it spot-on perfect!!! No one faltered. Epic performance and that main rhythm riff is the quintessential 80's riff for me.

[metalhead131000]

one of the best songs ever written...anthrax rule all!

[TheReasonOfObsession]

DESTROYER OF LIFEEEEE!!!

[111Freeman777]

dude Spreading The Disease, Fistful Of Metal and Among The Living has to be their VERY best CDs of all time

[ultimatemegadeath]

agreed, but i also would throw in Persistance of time. very heavy, very melodic.

[douglasmoras]

aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhh

medusaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[demberywea]

gorgon!!!!!!!

((...)) ...eternal classic
