What a blast on the PURPLE carpet in Hollywood! 💜🤘🎸

Talk about a last-minute decision! Woke up at 11 AM the day of the premiere, jumped on a plane at 2 PM, and by 7 PM I was walking the purple carpet!

Caught up with friends and family, did a little purple carpet action, hung out with my East Coast buddy Samson and my West Coast buddy Jacob, and reconnected with so many familiar faces from the past while making some new friends along the way.

What an amazing night celebrating Back to the Beginning! Eleven hours of pure rock and roll captured on film — a historic day that will go down in rock and roll history!

Everyone needs to see this movie when it hits theaters October 28th! 🎬🔥

This film truly captures the magic, emotion, and energy of that very special day. Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath will NEVER be forgotten! Their music, their legacy, and what they gave to rock and roll will live on forever.

I feel incredibly privileged to have photographed the very last image of Ozzy on stage. That photograph was featured in the Working Class Hero exhibition at the Birmingham Museum, something I’ll always be proud to have been a part of.

The Prince of Darkness may be gone, but his legacy will live forever. 🤘 The music of Ozzy and Black Sabbath will continue to inspire generations to come. They didn’t just change rock and roll — they helped create the sound of heavy metal and changed music history forever. Legends never die, and their music will never be silenced. Thank you, Ozzy and Black Sabbath, for giving the world a soundtrack that will live on forever. 🤘

Check out the video and find a theater near you!

WHICH ROCK STARS GOT BIG HEADS? JOHN BUSH REACTS 😳

New songs. Classic favorites. How does John Bush balance them on Armored Saint’s Metal Saint Tour with Metal Church?

We dig into Emotion Factory Reset, what’s next for Category 7, and more Bushthrax shows. And yes, a little Dodgers talk.

Read the blog and watch the interview. Link in bio.

⚡ Nel 1995 gli Anthrax attraversavano una fase di trasformazione profonda. Dopo l’uscita di Joey Belladonna e l’arrivo di John Bush, la band aveva già cambiato pelle con Sound of White Noise. Con Stomp 442 sceglie di spingere ancora più a fondo, allontanandosi dalle coordinate del thrash metal degli esordi per abbracciare un suono più pesante, ruvido e diretto, figlio di un decennio in cui il metal cercava nuove forme d’espressione.

🔥 Random Acts of Senseless Violence, Fueled e King Size mettono in mostra il lato più muscolare del disco: riff serrati, ritmiche martellanti e un groove che privilegia l’impatto senza rinunciare alla precisione. Nothing e American Pompeii aggiungono sfumature più articolate, mentre Bare lascia emergere un volto meno aggressivo, affidandosi a una tensione più emotiva.

🎸 Scott Ian costruisce trame chitarristiche compatte e taglienti, affiancato da Charlie Benante, autentico motore ritmico della formazione. Frank Bello sostiene il muro sonoro con un basso incisivo, mentre John Bush imprime ai brani una voce roca, potente e riconoscibile, perfettamente adatta a queste atmosfere. Dan Spitz non partecipò alle registrazioni: le parti di chitarra furono affidate a Ian e Benante.

💿 Pubblicato il 24 ottobre 1995, Stomp 442 fu il secondo album degli Anthrax con Bush alla voce. Il titolo richiama il motore 442 della Oldsmobile, simbolo di potenza americana, mentre la copertina porta la firma di Alex Ross. Inoltre, per una curiosità più significativa, Stomp 442 ospita Dimebag Darrell dei Pantera, che suona gli assoli di chitarra in King Size e Riding Shotgun.

🤘 Stomp 442 non cerca di ricreare il passato né di inseguire le mode con leggerezza: è un album denso, abrasivo e poco accomodante, che fotografa gli Anthrax mentre difendono la propria identità in un panorama musicale radicalmente cambiato. Non è il capitolo più celebrato della loro discografia, ma conserva la forza di una band che preferisce rischiare piuttosto che ripetersi.

🤟🏽😎 Stay tuned 🎸
