New singer, same results, great album!.......2007-05-24

Anthrax, along with Metallica, Slayer, and Megadeth were the 4 bands that converted me into a metalhead in the 80's. They always seemed to produce consistent headbanging material. However, I was a little concerned that this consistency would be broken when I heard that John Bush would be replacing Joey Belladonna at lead vocals for the 1993 release "The Sound of White Noise." Once I heard the album, I was concerned no more.

Believe it or not, I instantly preferred Bush's vocals. Every album that Joey appeared on was solid and consistent and followed the basic headbanging formula. Not that this is a bad thing, but Anthrax never really seemed to stray too far from the norm. John Bush brought a level of maturity with him and "The Sound of White Noise" became their most mature album up to that point.

With this album, Anthrax dared to challenge themselves with more complex song arrangements, much deeper melodies, and more thought provoking lyrics. It's almost as though Joey was holding them back from expanding out of the thrash box that they were in. Bush's vocals are tremendous and allow for more powerful choruses and hook lines. Each song is as memorable as the next with plenty of headbanging material to go around. However, songs like Packaged Rebellion and Black Lodge are unlike any previous Anthrax songs, but are just as great. Other high points are Potter's Field, Hy Pro Glo, Invisible, and Room For One More.

Do I think this is the best Anthrax album? It depends on my mood. If I'm looking for straight up headbanging with killer riffs and pounding drums, I prefer Among The Living. If I'm looking for the entire package, The Sound of White Noise satisfies all of my metal cravings.

As with any review, these are my opinions and not everybody will agree with them which is what makes these reviews so much fun. Enjoy!

The best of the Bush era.......2007-04-29

Anthrax fans can be lumpers or splitters; splitters consider there to be four anthraxes, lumpers only one. I tend to think of two Anthraxes; a Belldonna Anthrax and a Bush Anthrax. "Sound" is the first album of the Bush reign. Bush's voice is much deeper than Belladonna's, one of the reasons that I think of two separate Anthraxes. The writing of "SOWN" accommodates that difference well.

Many believe that John Bush's voice forced the band to take a more mature approach to their music, eliminating comic books, Stephen King and Mythology as their muses. However, a relisten to P"ersistence of Time" will show anyone that the boys were already headed in that direction. "POT" and "SOWN" actually transition well together because of this. In fact, C11H17N2Na02S (the chemical formula for sodium penthanol, a.k.a. truth serum) sounds like a leftover from "Persistence", and one could easily imagine Joey singing the song. Both albums veer away from the high-pitched speed riffs of the earlier albums and emphasize the rhythm section (Charlie and Frankie).

While I will not speculate as to whether I like Belladonna or Bush better, I will say that this is the best effort of the Bush Anthrax. Most metal fans will have heard the "hits": "Black Lodge", "Only" and "Room for One More", but "Hy Pro Glo", "Potter's Field" and "1000 Points of Hate" are just as strong. Music fans wishing to explore Anthrax should start with "Among the Living", still the best `thrax album, and "Sound" and compare the two lead singers themselves. Luckily, the greatest back-up singer in history, Scott Ian, is a constant on both!

the music itself was good.......2007-04-15

i really licked the music on this album, but i wish they would go back and remaster it though. the sound quality on this album sucked big time. there is alot of distortion that can't be fine tuned out on any stereo system.

Anthrax Reborn.......2007-04-14

John Bushs' debut slab with the 'thrax.......2007-04-04

The excitement of a new singer copules with the fact that it was released at the height of the grunge revolution put this album on the radar screens of many metal heads. Just what would it sound like?

IMHO;

This is an Anthrax stripped of much of their likeability. From the packaging to the generic feel to the albums tunes this is an Anthrax taking the opportunity to divest themselves of the hysterical delivery style of the Belladonna years. And John Bush rocks. What a voice, what a down to earth way of vocalising these metal musings.

That's not to say I like the end result. And I don't. Which I realise puts me out of synch with accepted wisdom on this album which was seen as a rebirth. Well it was, but not into something to my taste. John Bush yes. But the overheavy tunes, well no thanks. Right from the opener of Potters Field this album just doesn't gel with me. To my ears it feels like the band were trying to come to terms with the new vocal style they were writing for.

But don't take my word for it, read some other reviews before blowing your cash. After all I didn't hear this until after hearing the second Bush era release Stomp 442. Which was awesome. So going in reverse order to this perhaps explains my being underwhelmed by this critically adored, hard and heavy offering.

Opening with Clara Rockmore's reworking of Tchaikovsky with the theremin, and finishing with one of Brian Eno's ambient soundscapes, OHM artfully succeeds in its goal of giving a representative (as opposed to the impossible, comprehensive) overview of the first several decades of electronic music. Over 3 discs, 42 compositions, and 96 pages of notes and photos, OHM clearly illustrates the producers' and contributing writers' point that early electronic music is much of the foundation of contemporary music. Herein lies the connective tissue bridging musique concrète, 20th-century classical, electronic experimentation, and the theoretical avant-garde to psychedelia, ambient, dub, techno, electro, and synthpop and the globalization of sound. The groundbreaking uses of loops, sampling, drones, remixes, and cut-and-paste technology are put fully into context. The diversity of music included makes any sort of summation impossible, but that is also the point: electronic music is not really a genre, but an open field of endless possibility. From John Cage's famous "William's Mix" of tape snippets to Karkheinz Stockhausen's electronic orchestral compositions, from David Tudor and Holger Czukay's experiments in unrelated blendings of audio elements to David Behrman's supremely peaceful duet between computers and musicians, the aural renegades on OHM tread where none (save a few of their contemporaries) had gone before. The liner notes convey the incredible amount of hard work and experimentation it took to stitch together many of these pieces in the predigital era. Putting aside the inevitable quibbles about what's missing (much of it due to legal and/or logistical issues), a more complete collection of musical eggheads, eccentrics, and visionaries is hard to imagine. --Carl Hanni

Customer Reviews:

excellent but uncomplete.......2006-11-12

Althought most of the music here is an excellent collection of electronic music history, this 3 CDs lack of the important contribution given by the RAI phonology studios of Milan, Italy in the 50s
(which was bigger than Koln's WDR studios) with Bruno Maderna, Luciano Berio and Luigi Nono.
This is a big mistake. Milans studios were the biggest of europe and produced many important electroacoustic pieces.
If the collection aim to describe faithfully electronic music history, it should include this artists too.

To call it music may be a bit limiting. .......2006-10-24

Some of the tracks on here are "music". That is that they contain all the bits we're trained to experience as music -- melody, etc. Some are not, and the composers would be the first people to tell you that. A lot of these works are reactions to ingrained rules, so they're bound to be jarring.

A more successful way to approach such a broad and varied collection of audio experimentation is to think of it as curated sound. This isn't something to wash the dishes to, or to seduce someone to (although if you did manage to seduce someone with the recordings on this anthology, HOLD ON TO THAT PERSON, because they've got to be a keeper). These are unique sound textures that deserve a close, probably solitary listen, and I think if you're in the right frame of mind, it can be a very rewarding listen.

My main complaint is sequencing: each dicrete piece follows it's own internal logic, so there are more than a couple rough gear changes. However, since each piece is so different, and the collection is so varied, I'm not sure that you could totally escape that.

A worthwhile collection.......2006-01-11

The OHM collection contains some of those ground breaking electronic compositions that have shaped today's styles, from the early electronic instruments of Theremin and Martenot, through Pierre Schaeffer's Music Concrete tape music and the electronic music of Stockhausen and Subotnick, to the mainframe computer output of Risset and Chowning.

It is unfair to mark this collection down due to the production quality and 'musicality' of its contents, to do so would be to staggeringly miss the point of the development of electronic music through the 20th Century. What this collection shows is the ideas behind those at the cutting edge of the genre before many could even conceive of such output. That said it is hard going at points, as experimental music can be.

Highlights for me are no doubt Olivier Messiaen's 'Oraison' on CD 1, David Tudor's 'Rainforest Version 1' on CD 2 and on CD 3 David Behrman's 'On the Other Ocean' and Maryanne Amacher's 'Living sound Patent Pending'.

OhMyGodHowDreadful.......2005-08-15

Ok, this collection is supposed to be early works and, thus not expected to be very sophisticated or polished. But the OHM collection sounds like the first attempt of a spastic cat turned-loose on a Moog keyboard. When it is not boreing, this collection of random and dissonant sounds (I can't call it music) is without any redeeming qualities to make it worth while. Don't get me wrong, I am a long-time fan of Wendy (nie Walter) Carlos and some other real pioneers of electronic music. However, I find that the Ohm collection has no similar qualities and is a major disappointment.

Kid Stockhausen.......2003-01-17

This is required listening for anybody interested in the history of electronic music. Although implicitly aiming for the techno music audience, this audio history is overwhelmingly focused on the classical avant-garde of electro-acoustic composers. The closest you'll get to pop electronica is the Brian Eno track at the end of the third disc. No Kraftwerk, no Moroder, etc. Instead "OHM" manages to point to the continuities between, say, John Cage and artists currently working at the experimental edges of electronica (so-called IDM). It seems to be saying, "You think Kid 606 is visionary? Well check out this Stockhausen track from '59!"

Admittedly, some of the songs are much more interesting to think about than they are to listen to. Some of the early pieces that were made through thosuands of hours of pains-taking tape-splicing could be made today in an afternoon with a digital audio editor and a few effects plug-ins.

It is a beautiful package, containing a 90 page booklet of essays, quotations from the featured artists, and photographs. What all music should be: an education in daring.

Nice surprise with this re-release.......2007-03-29

This is by far one of my favorite anthrax albums. It marked the introduction of lead singer john bush, and continued in the vein of their best album persistence of time. Leading of with the track potters field, this rips through a series of intense, fast paced songs that Anthrax has been well known for over the years, but with a darker, and more political insightful view. It was not just fun and games. Best tracks on this Album are Black Lodge, Only, This is not and Exit, and 1000 points of Hate.

With this european package (released in 2003 with the re-mastered Volume 8 and Stomp 442) It adds the black lodge Strings mix to the CD, and Adds a bonus Video CD that can be played in your CD player. with the videos from this album, and excellent concenpt which should be carried through their catologue, but only got done here on the Electra releases (issued on Nuclear Blast in europe). This is an excellent edition to a collectors collection. It is actually the fourth version I own, and I am still amazed. Check this out.

Anthrax Reborn (and Reissued).......2007-04-14

Originally released in 1993, Sound of White Noise was the debut album of "the Bush era". I was always aware of Anthrax growing up, but aside from their goofball "I'm the Man" single, the band never really made much of an impact on me until they replaced vocalist Joey Belladonna with Armored Saint's John Bush. Bush's energetic and intense yet still melodic vocal style just seemed like such a better fit for Anthrax's brand of thrash, and I still view that lineup's debut - 1993's Sound of White Noise - as the best Anthrax album ever.

Sound of White Noise is a tour de force performance by a band that obviously felt they had something to prove after the loss of long-time vocalist Joey Belladonna. John Bush brought an incredible energy to the band, resulting in one of the most high octane metal albums I've ever heard. When I first saw the video for "Only" my jaw hit the floor and I remember thinking "THIS is Anthrax?" I bought the album the next day and was amazed at how track by track it just seemed to get better and better, from the melodic "Only" to the ultra-aggressive "Packaged Rebellion", "Burst" and "Hy Pro Glo" to the downright haunting "Black Lodge". There are no weak tracks on this album at all. It's rare that an album has this kind of heart attack impact on me, but Sound of White Noise definitely made an immediate impression. To me, this will always be the definitive Anthrax album.

The 2001 reissue of Sound of White Noise features digitally remastered sound as well as four bonus tracks. In addition to an alternate "string mix" of "Black Lodge", the band gives us three very diverse cover songs - Cheap Trick's "Auf Wiedersehen", Thin Lizzy's "Cowboy Song", and the Smiths' "London". That last cover previously appeared on the Airheads movie soundtrack. When it comes to cover songs, Anthrax never ceases to amaze me with their unorthodox cover choices. Thin Lizzy wasn't entirely unexpected, but the Smiths? This new version of Sound of White Noise sounds fantastic, and is a must-have upgrade for anyone who enjoyed this great album.

IF YOU ARE AN ANTHRAX FAN-BUY THIS NOW!!!.......2003-12-10

THE FIRST ANTHRAX ALBUM W/JOHN BUSH OF ARMORED SAINT, AND THIS IS ONE HELL OF A DEBUT! THIS ALBUM HAS EVERYTHING-ROCK-CRUSHING HARD ROCKERS TO AN END, AND DOES'NT DISSAPOINT FROM START TO FINISH.BUSH DOES AN AWESOME JOB IN THE VOCALIST'S CHAIR, AND THOUGH I LOVED ALL THE ALBUMS WITH JOEY BELLADONNA, I ALWAYS FOUND HIS VOCALS TO BE A LITTLE ONE-DIMENSIONAL, AND SOMETIMES ALMOST WHINY-NOT SO WITH BUSH.ANYONE WHO HAS EVER LISTENED TO AN ARMORED SAINT ALBUM KNOWS HE'S EARNED HIS PROPERS.EVERY TRACK ON THIS ALBUM RIPS, ESPECIALLY POTTER'S FIELD, ONLY, HYPRO GLOW, BURST, AND THE ONE SLOW TUNE ON THE DISC, BLACK LODGE.I ALSO DIG THE THIN LIZZY COVER, COWBOY SONG.IF YOU LOVE ANTHRAX, BUY THIS ALBUM NOW-IT WILL NOT DISSAPOINT!

arguably anthraxs' best album to date.......2002-09-05

This indeed reflects a mature band. 1993, the guys arent 23 years old anymore. No band can put out album after album that features 250 beats per minute thrash songs throughout. That coupled with the fact that drummer Charlie Benante's wife cheated on him which in turn resulted in him comprising 90% of this albums material, is at least inspiring.

A really good CD.......2002-03-24

This is not Anthrax's best CD but it is really good. It is not as good as say Among the Living, or State of Euphoria but it has some classic songs. The songs "Potters Field", Only", and "Room for One More" are the best songs on this but they are all basically good songs. This album was heavier than anything Anthrax put out before. Not nearly as fast but the guitars are simply much heavier sounding on this CD. Some people may not like John Bush and say that he ruined Anthrax. I personally like John Bush, he's not as good as Joey Belladonna but he is a good replacement. Just buy this, Anthrax rules!

The beginning..........2002-03-10

...of Anthrax's long slide into mediocrity. "Sound..." is still a very good album, make no mistake. John Bush is at the top of his game and the rest of the band plays the material with passion & intensity. My beef is not with the band, but with the content, which is pretty soft & washed-out. The album also seems to meander through a variety of "feels", leaving the album convoluted and the listener confused.
