  1. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    Full of the anthemic choruses and hulking riffs that have always driven their sound, and it’s hard to imagine diehard fans being anything but satisfied
    Read Review

  2. 8.0 |   Gig Soup

    It feels good to see them take the game to the other members of the Big 4. Over to you, Metallica

  3. 7.6 |   Sputnik Music (staff)

    It’s an album that can riff its way into your head, but it’s going to stay there because of the excellent choruses
    Read Review

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    The riffs are punchy, the drumming relentless, and nary a note is wasted
    Read Review

  5. 7.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    Anthrax is having its second golden age
    Read Review

  6. 7.0 |   Exclaim

    It's a great outing by Anthrax, if slightly frustrating in its lack of ability to keep the great momentum going consistently
    Read Review

  7. 7.0 |   The Music

    To paraphrase Keith Richards, Anthrax still 'mean it'
    Read Review

  8. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    Far from a throwaway throwback, For All Kings shows Anthrax sounding like their classic lineup but evolved for 2016
    Read Review

  9. 6.0 |   Q

    Will remind newcomers of Metallica's buffed-up chugga-chugga, but also, a trifle disappointingly, of late-era Iron Maiden's blanded-out chest-beating anthemics. Print edition only

  10. 6.0 |   Mojo

    Anthrax's energised take, though hardly original, remains forceful and persuasive with each member still delivering with the strength of 10 men. Print edition only

  11. 6.0 |   The Arts Desk

    What are these middle-aged metalheads still angry about, and how exactly do they carry their inner rage?
    Read Review

  12. 5.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Feels less like a contrived insult to fulfill contractual obligations and consumer demand and more like a genuine gift to their diehard worshippers who swear by ’80s thrash in all its nostalgic glory
