220px-AnthraxAmongTheLivingRaising the future of rock is a daily adventure, often marked by what music will be providing the soundtrack to our day. The Toddler Jukebox happened by accident – thousands of albums on CD and Vinyl filed neatly on shelves within The Rock Father’s office, many within reach of curious hands. I created a new rule a few weeks back, that if my daughter (22 months young) pulled an album, that meant I had to listen to it. With a lot of music collecting dust, this would be an opportunity to revisit some titles from the past. Today’s Jukebox is a curious pair – if only for the fact that their combined names could stike fear into the hearts of the TSA, CDC, and NSA combined: ANTHRAX and BIOHAZARD.

Moments later, those little hands had another title firmly in their grasp with the limited-edition version of BIOHAZARD’s 1994 STATE OF THE WORLD ADDRESS.

She didn’t seem to appreciate the BIOHAZARD as much as the ANTHRAX from a musical perspective at first, but after she began bobbing her head to the hardcore stylings, I believe her true motivation for choosing the record was revealed when she handed it back to me and said a single word: “Orange.

Interesting sidebar: Both ANTHRAX and BIOHAZARD have new albums due out later this year.
