if metallica and slayer invented speed metal, anthrax brought it to the east coast and imbued it with the attitude and excitement of new york hardcore. among the living is, without a doubt, their finest hour - a roaring, adrenaline-pumped collection of flailing beats, precise, razor-edged riffs and shout-along refrains. unlike most full-throttle metal vocalists of the era, joey belladonna chose to sing as well as shout, giving songs like 'among the living', 'indians' and 'efilnikcufecin' ("nice fuckin' life" spelled backwards) a decided melodic edge. yet scott ian and dan spitz's buzzsaw guitar flurries, and charlie benante's insistent drumming, prevented the songs from ever degenerating into the run-of-the-mill heavy metal they so despised.
