Musical Montage: Anthrax “I Am the Law”
One of the greatest comic book characters ever, Judge Joseph Dredd got a tribute worthy of his badass persona with “I Am the Law” from Anthrax. Coming off what many would argue is their greatest album, Among the Living, in 1987, the song has become one of the band’s signature and most popular songs. The song subsequently appeared on Anthrax’s greatest hits albums Return of the Killer A’s, Madhouse and Anthrology: No Hit Wonders. The song is also not just a specious tribute to Mega-City One’s top lawman, the lyrics are full of obscure references to specific comic storylines and characters along with just generally shredding. There, unfortunately, isn’t an official music video for the song but you can listen to it below.
