Эта нью-йоркская трэшевая команда была основана в 1982 году. В ее состав вошли: Скотт "Нот" Ян (Скотт Розенфельд, р. 31 декабря 1963; ритм-гитара), Нейл Турбин (вокал), Дэн Спиц (лидер-гитара), Дэн Лилкер (бас; заменен Франком Белло в 1984-м) и Чарли Бенант (ударные). Под руководством Джонни Зи, главы независимого лейбла "Megaforce Records", квинтет выпустил в 1984 году первый диск "Fistful of metal". Несмотря на его безвкусно сделанную обложку, альбом попал в музыкальные обзоры и помаленьку, но стабильно продавался. Какое-то время, Ян, Лилкер и Бенант были также участниками хардкор-группы " Stormtroopers Of Death". Впоследствии Лилкер ушел из "Anthrax", чтобы играть в похожей по стилю команде "Nuclear assault". А вскоре свалил и Турбин, его сначала заменил недолго продержавшийся в составе Матт Фаллон, а затем Джо Белладонна (р. 30 октября 1960, Нью-Йорк, США).
В таком составе в 1985 году группа выпустила EP "Armed and dangerous", и ее увеличивающаяся популярность привела к подписанию контракта с "Island Records". Диск "Spreading The Disease" по достоинству был оценен слушателями, а турне вместе с " Металликой" принесло "Антраксу" известность в Европе.
С выходом альбома "Among The Living", спродюсированного Эдди Крамером, "Anthrax" становится самой популярной спид-метал-группой. Их композиции "I Am The Law" и "Indians" заняли верхние строчки британских чартов, а неимоверно интересные "живые" шоу сделали любимцами прессы и публики. Хитовая юморная песня "I'm The Man" постоянно исполнялась на бис на концертах. Однако, следующий альбом "State of euphoria" оказался не очень удачным. "Persistance of time" оказался добротно сделанным альбомом, а кавер-версия композиции Джо Джексона "Got The Time" с этого диска стала хитом. Вышедший в 1991 году сборник "Attack of the killer b's" стал одним из наиболее популярных альбомов "Anthrax", а больше всего публике нравилась записанная вместе с "Public enemy" композиция "Bring The Noise". "Anthrax" и "Public enemy" провели совместное турне.
Вскоре после того, как группа подписала новый контракт с "Elektra records", из состава ушел Белладонна, а на замену ему пришел экс-фронтмен " Armored saint" Джон Буш. "Sound of white noise" стал самым классным альбомом группы, а тур в его поддержку прошел очень успешно. В соавторстве Буша, Яна и Бенанта были записаны самые лучшие композиции.
В 1994-м Буш замутил свой параллельный ритм-энд-блюзовый проект "Ho Cake", в который вошли его прежние коллеги по " Armored saint" Джо Вера (бас) и Джеф Дункан (гитара), а также как Шаун Дункан (ударные), Тони Силберт (клавишные) и Брюс Фернандез (экс – "Dread Zeppelin"). В 1995 "Anthrax" начал работу над "Stomp 442", мощной смеси хардкора и металла. Однако, Спиц был изгнан из группы до начала записи этого диска, и его гитарные партии были сыграны Полом Круком, Даймбэгом Даррелом из " Pantera" и барабанщиком группы, Чарли Бенантом.
После трехгодового перерыва (во время которого Ян поучаствовал в записи альбома "Tricky") появился на свет новый релиз "Volume 8 - The Threat Is Real".
