Trivia
Interesting facts about Anthrax. By Songfacts.
The band is named after a deadly disease caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis. Scott Ian got the idea when he learned about anthrax in his high school biology class.
The band was formed in mid-1981 by guitarists Scott Ian and Danny Lilker in New York City. Drummer Dave Weiss and bassist Kenny Kushner rounded out Anthrax's inaugural lineup. They are a very socially conscious metal band.
Following the release of the "Soldiers of Metal" 7-inch single, the band was signed by Johnny and Marsha Zazula of Megaforce Records after they literally followed them around the city.
