Reviews Customer Reviews for State Of Euphoria      A big let down between their two best (early) albums...      Rating:      Production is thick, sludgy and just plain terrible... even worse than the notoriously sludgy wall of sound that Metallica achieved on "Justice". The songs are mostly long, not very inspired and tend to blend together too easily. Anthrax just sounds kind of tired on this disc. Which is odd, as it's not that bad, taken song by song. Listen to just "Antisocial", or "Now it's Dark". Really pretty good songs, taken one by one. As an album, however, it just all tends to blur together into a bombastic wall of fuzzy grit... and not in a good way. Still very worth a listen, and worh owning. Easily picked up used in local used CD exchange type stores... which also shows how well it's stood the test of time for repeated listening over the years. Unless you're huge into Anthrax, or just love that thick, bad 1980's production, it MAY gather dust in your collection.     Customer Reviews for State Of Euphoria Cd      Anthrax In Top Form      Rating:      Don't listen to the other negative reviews for this album. State Of Euphoria is a classic & next to Among The Living is Anthrax' best work. This is coming from someone who loved 'em from the very beginning (I remember going to an early release party for this album just to pick up the cassette, if that doesn't give you an idea of my age:P). The entire album is filled with pure anthems from "Be All, End All", "Make Me Laugh", "Who Cares Wins", "Sciczm" to pretty much anything else on the entire album. My best guess is that the majority of these negative reviews are coming from pimple popping teeny boppers who a couple months ago were all over Brittany's latest album & probably didn't even know who Anthrax were until it started to become cool to wear their t-shirts again (with their women's jeans; how the hell did that ever take off). Hell these kids testies probably just dropped. Take it from someone who was there from the beginning, whose still there now; this album rocks from beginning to end & deserves to be highlighted among any self respecting metal heads collection.
