In summation, “Worship Music” culminates the Anthrax experience. It brings back tidits form every album and delivers them fresh and exciting. The songwriting is superd, the hooks irresistible, and the sheer Anthrax power is awesome
“Scheepers” comes highly recommended to fans of old school metal. Anyone who gets a boner listening to Judas Priest, Pretty Maids, Accept, Savatage, Scorprions, and Iron Maiden will fall in love with “Scheepers.”
Most of the songs on this platter hardly register in the metal spectrum. Expect hook laden riffs and weird lyrics about Dolving’s…whatever. The lyrics don’t matter as much as the palpable mood that infects the tunes here.
Since thrash is basically riffs and fast percussion, a simple formula Havok indulge for the duration of the present material, expect to be served a plus-sized entrée of the pure stuff for about 40 odd minutes.
Those looking for faults in this masterwork might fuss about Jeff Paulick’s vocals, but that’s just being a twat about boring details. Lazarus AD have raised the bar so high, it would be awful if what came after this sucked in comparison.
