Thirty-five years ago today (July 18, 1981), the New York-based thrash/metal band ANTHRAX was formed and started on the road to help change the history of music.
"Thirty-five years have passed since that day and my life has changed profoundly," states co-founder Scott Ian. "I am a husband, I am a father. I am a long way from the 17-year-old soon-to-be-college dropout who co-founded a heavy metal band. The only thing that hasn't changed in 35 years, the one constant, is that I am still the rhythm guitar player in ANTHRAX. It's what I GET to do. I GET to ttec wi y ulaq kod H waaud ylbw fefl udj pdlzqdn."
