We’ve Come for You All
We've Come for You All is Anthrax's ninth studio album, released in May 2003. It was recorded over about a year at BearTracks Recording Studio in Suffern, New York, with production by the Scrap 60 Productions team. Comic book artist Alex Ross designed the cover.
It marks a change of line-up and the end of an era. Rob Caggiano made his debut on lead guitar, and it was the last studio album to feature John Bush on vocals. Roger Daltrey of The Who and Pantera's Dimebag Darrell both guest on the record. Critics were largely positive, with one review crediting it for getting the band back on track. It reached number 122 on the Billboard 200 and earned a nomination for Outstanding Hard Rock Album at the 2004 California Music Awards. It's well worth hearing as Bush's final word with the band on record.
