Agreed! There's not one moment of filler on the entire album.  It's a great classic heavy metal album as well as a classic thrash album. Even better than Among The Living, in my humble opinion! <3

It is by far Anthrax's best by quite a huge margin

I wouldn't say by a huge margin, but I think why this album works so well, is because the sound is absolutely perfect for Joey's vocals.
There is some thrash on the album, like A.I.R., Gung Ho, and Aftershock, but there is also some more standard metal songs like Lone Justice, Medusa, Madhouse and Armed And Dangerous. And Joey's voice was so perfect for that material! I think Persistence Of Time is the pinnacle of their thrash sound, at least for me. But Spreading as an overall metal album is one of the best of all time, in my opinion. It was a perfect blend of old school heavy metal and thrash, and is a very unique album in the thrash scene because of that. xD

Among The Living is vastly superior to Persistence Of Time which is an average album at best and.
Even though Spreading has its slower moments it's all thrash even the semi-ballad Armed & Dangerous.

I wouldn't say it was all thrash...  Certainly when you compare it to the 3 albums that came afterwards, there's much more of a classic metal vibe going on with Spreading. Which is undeniable in the songs I highlighted above. It's vibe is definitely overall, less thrashy and more melodic than the 3 albums that followed it. ATL, SOE, and POT were all albums that had the same style, sound wise. Spreading's sound is markedly different, which makes it stand out in their discography. At least this is they way it sounds to me.. lol
POT "average"? Im sorry, I have to strongly disagree with you there! xD

Its interesting how quickly anthrax's sound had matured between this and their debut album released a year before. Not that their debut album is that bad, but 'Spreading...' is focussed more on well-written songs than it is an homage to primary influences. Although this album is seemingly less heavier than 'Among the living' (though that may be due to the production), there are still a fair few enjoyable moments to be found here. True Thrash:)

That riff in 'Medusa' gets stuck in my head for days every time I hear it.

I really fucking hate the sound of the drums, if it wasn't for that, it would have a 9

The more I listen to this, the more I love it.
This is a pretty damn solid thrash album, and perhaps one of Anthrax's best.
