The band didn't only release two ║ │ │║ incredible comeback records with Worship Music ║ │ │║ and For All Kings but also delivered incredibly ║ │ │║ energetic live shows. The aptly titled Chile on ║ │ │║ Hell might be one of the very best live records ║ │ │║ ever released. Having attended two concerts of ║ │ │║ the band over the past few years, I can only ║ │ │║ confirm the band's incredible chemistry and will ║ │ │║ always remember these shows as some of the best ║ │ │║ I have ever attended. Kings Among Scotland ║ │ │║ doesn't disappoint in that regard either. The ║ │ │║ band is in great form. The drums sound dynamic, ║ │ │║ heavy and versatile. The bass guitar is the band ║ │ │║ sound's solid backbone. The guitar work is ║ │ │║ incredible, regarding both the fast thrash metal ║ │ │║ riffs and the heartfelt melodic passages. Joey ║ │ │║ Belladonna sings as if he were thirty years ║ │ │║ younger than he actually is and underlines his ║ │ │║ status as the genre's best vocalist. The crowd ║ │ │║ is great as well, sings and cheers along loudly ║ │ │║ to tracks like the hard rocking ''Madhouse'' and ║ │ │║ the atmospheric epic ''Be All, End All''. The ║ │ │║ production is crisp, direct and organic and ║ │ │║ makes you feel as if you were rocking Barrowland ║ │ │║ Ballroom in Glasgow with the five lads from the ║ │ │║ American East Coast. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Obviously, one might debate whether it's ║ │ │║ necessary to purchase a live record less than ║ │ │║ four years after the legendary Chile On Hell. ║ │ │║ The track lists have quite a few similarities. ║ │ │║ Chile on Hell featured six songs from Among the ║ │ │║ Living, Kings Among Scotland includes the entire ║ │ │║ record consisting of nine songs. Classics like ║ │ │║ ''Madhouse'', ''Antisocial'' and ''Medusa'' are ║ │ │║ included on both releases. At least, the new ║ │ │║ release includes three great renditions taken ║ │ │║ from Anthrax's last high-quality studio record ║ │ │║ For All Kings with the powerful ''Evil Twin'', ║ │ │║ the epic ''Blood Eagle Wins'' and the ║ │ │║ wonderfully melodic power ballad ''Breathing ║ │ │║ Lightning''. Still, the track lists of the two ║ │ │║ releases are too similar in my opinion. If you ║ │ │║ are a casual fan, you could just purchase the ║ │ │║ slightly better Chile On Hell because of its ║ │ │║ incredible crowd. Fans of Anthrax's records with ║ │ │║ Joey Belladonna will certainly purchase both ║ │ │║ records and enjoy the hell out of both. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Kings Among Scotland simply underlines Anthrax's ║ │ │║ status as one of the best live bands in the ║ │ │║ world and offers a generous eighteen tracks with ║ │ │║ a running time just above two hours. The video ║ │ │║ version of this release additionally features a ║ │ │║ few video clips, behind-the-scenes footage and ║ │ │║ gear rundown with each band member. The only ║ │ │║ downside is that there seems to be no release ║ │ │║ that combines the two CD version and the live ║ │ │║ DVD. Since I purchased the video version of ║ │ │║ Chile on Hell three and a half years ago, I will ║ │ │║ go for the double-disc release this time around. ║ │ │║ I can't wait to blast this excellent release in ║ │ │║ my car this summer. ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Review written by kluseba for www.metal- ║ │ │║ archives.com ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ Joey Belladonna - Vocals ║ │ │║ Scott Ian - Guitars ║ │ │║ Charlie Benante - Drums ║ │ │║ Frank Bello - Bass ║ │ │║ Jonathan Donais - Guitars ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │║ ║ │ │╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │╔═════════════════════╗ │ │║ Release Tracklist ║ │ │╚═════════════════════╩══════════════════════════════════════════ │ │ │ │ - CD1 [ ] │ │ - [ ] │ │ 01 - A.I.R.
