Anthrax : Among The Living

FORCED OUT, BRAVE AND MIGHTY

STOLEN LAND, THEY CAN'T FIGHT IT

 Among the Living

 is the third 

studio album

 by American 

Heavy Metal band

 Anthrax 

It was released on

 March 22, 1987, 

by Megaforce Records

 in the US 

and by 

Island Records

 in the rest

 of the world. 

The album is 

dedicated to 

Cliff Burton

 of Metallica, 

who died in a

 bus accident 

six months 

before its release 

while Metallica 

were on tour 

with Anthrax 

as the 

opening act.

Veteran engineer 

Eddie Kramer, 

at his first venture

 with a 

thrash metal act,

 co-produced the album.

 Recording

 proceeded smoothly, 

but different visions 

for the sound

 of the final release 

created disagreements

 between Anthrax 

and the producer 

during the audio mixing.

Anthrax members 

described the album 

as their major breakthrough, 

as it marked the 

progression from

 the band playing

 in small clubs

 to arenas

 and stadiums. 

The album was 

critically acclaimed, 

and promoted 

the band among the

 "Big Four" 

of thrash metal. 

The band's 

second gold record, 

Among the Living 

was certified gold 

by the RIAA 

on July 31, 1990.
