REVIEW: ANTHRAX - Sound of White Noise
Anthrax never really realised their full potential. But a switch of labels and a new vocalist have produced an album which shows the lurking talent.
It is full of explosive riffs, pounding drums and music of an intensity never seen before. Rather than follow the commercial rubbish of Metallica's last two albums, they have modified their thrash roots and produced music at the cutting edge of 90s metal. Brilliant!

THE REALLY USELESS COMPANY
Dear Mega-zine
I'm annoyed at some jerk called Icabod The Mad. What possessed you to include Mike Patton of Faith No More in a list of 10 most useless people in music? He has one of the most brilliant voices.
Icabod, keep listening to your Iron Maiden. Next time you want to list the useless people in music, include the likes of Sonia, Dannii Minogue, Cliff Richard and that singer of Suede.
