Album Description
Available in:
Sound of White Noise is the sixth studio album by American heavy metal band Anthrax, released in May 1993 on Elektra Records. It is the band's first album to feature vocalist John Bush, who replaced longtime Anthrax vocalist Joey Belladonna in 1992. It is also Anthrax's last studio album with longtime lead guitarist Dan Spitz.

The album, produced by the band and Dave Jerden, includes the singles "Only", "Black Lodge", "Room for One More" and "Hy Pro Glo". This album marked a significant revision in the band's sound, with the departure of lead vocalist Joey Belladonna and the introduction of grunge influences (Dave Jerden was the producer of Alice in Chains). Typical thrash metal elements such as speed and aggression, which characterized much of Anthrax's earlier work, are largely absent from their sound at this juncture in their career. The album debuted at #7 on the Billboard 200 charts, Anthrax's highest ever chart position. Sound of White Noise was certified gold by the RIAA.[citation needed] "Only" and "Black Lodge" charted at #26 and #38 respectively on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.

The album's closing track "This Is Not an Exit" is directly based on the Bret Easton Ellis novel American Psycho. The lyrics through the song are in narrative towards the main character in the book, Patrick Bateman.[citation needed] This song also includes a sample from the 1991 movie "My Girl". A music video was produced for the song "Black Lodge", featuring actress Jenna Elfman in one of her first film appearances. The Black Lodge is a fictional location in the popular early 1990s television series Twin Peaks. Anthrax was able to persuade Twin Peaks' score conductor Angelo Badalamenti to help compose the song.
