Anthrax songs are filled with riffs. Fast ones, chuggy ones, springy ones, nimble ones, catchy ones, moshy ones. Riffs are what rhythm guitarist Scott Ian does best, and while there’re plenty of musically nuanced and pleasantly melodic guitar passages in Anthrax’s catalog, we asked Ian to pick the 11 heaviest in the band’s repertoire. The ones that make you want to bang your head until you pull a muscle. The ones that make you want to punch the drink out of the hands of the dude standing next to you, just because. Watch above to see which riffs Ian selected, and hear him sing them all a capella. Let us know some of your favorite Anthrax riffs in the comments below!
