Interesting. I see the two as very, very different. Anthrax is not nearly as dark as Slayer for one thing, actually not dark at all IMO. And there's such a difference in style, definitely an east coast versus west coast aesthetic thing, with Anthrax having been influenced more by Hardcore and Hip-Hop. Hell there's even an ethnic difference between the two that I think informs the music to a certain extent.
