Unleash the raw power of thrash metal with Anthrax's seminal 1985 album, "Spreading the Disease." This iconic LP marks a pivotal moment in the band's career, introducing Joey Belladonna's distinctive vocals and solidifying their place among the "Big Four" of thrash. Featuring standout tracks like "Madhouse," "Armed and Dangerous," and "A.I.R.," the album is a relentless assault of high-energy riffs, blistering solos, and anthemic choruses that define the genre.

This 12" LP, pressed at 33⅓ RPM, captures the aggressive sound that Anthrax perfected. The record was originally released by Island Records in 1985, with this particular pressing distributed by MCA Records Canada, as indicated on the sleeve. The detailed back cover provides a complete tracklist for both Side A and Side B, along with production credits including Jon Zazula, Carl Canedy, and Alex Perialas. The album's striking artwork, featuring a figure seemingly under duress, perfectly encapsulates the intense and often politically charged themes explored within.

"Spreading the Disease" is not just an album; it's a piece of metal history. Its influence continues to resonate, making it a highly sought-after collectible for fans of Anthrax, thrash metal, and 80s heavy metal. This vintage vinyl offers an authentic listening experience, allowing collectors to appreciate the album as it was originally intended.
