Anthrology: No Hit Wonders (1985–1991)

Anthrology: No Hit Wonders (1985–1991) is a greatest hits compilation of songs by the band Anthrax, which is centered on the 2005 Among the Living line-up reunion (see also Alive 2) which includes current vocalist Joey Belladonna and former guitarist Dan Spitz. This release features only songs from the band's Joey Belladonna-era studio output, which began with Armed and Dangerous and ended with Attack of the Killer B's. Therefore, no songs from Fistful of Metal (which features Neil Turbin) Sound of White Noise, Stomp 442, Volume 8: The Threat Is Real or We've Come for You All (which all feature John Bush) are included on this compilation.

Credits
gollark: It said "cultists not allowed" (but that wasn't actually functional for ages) waaay before the cult wars if I remember right.
gollark: I was browsing another Discord server and I noticed an interesting bot thing where you can say `!portal [channel]`, and it posts something like the image there in the channel you specify (the link there is a link to the command so you can easily go back to it), and a link to the *new* message in the original channel. If organizing stuff into channels is much of a concern here this could be good to implement.(also, please remove the cultist ban in <#471334670483849216> as it does not seem to actually serve any useful purpose)
gollark: It's still there.
gollark: There was one in the latest video. Did you not watch it?Edit: Tell you *what*? I mean, it was discussed at the time.
gollark: Not sure if it's been said already, but this is an interesting use of lasers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-space_optical_communication
