"Only" is a song by American heavy metal band Anthrax off their 1993 album Sound of White Noise. It is one of band's most popular songs from the John Bush era, and has also appeared on their compilation album, Return of the Killer A's. Metallica frontman James Hetfield called "Only" "a perfect song".[3][4]
The clash of Bush's raspy vocals with Scott Ian's wall of dissonant rhythm guitar makes for a deadly blend of classic metal and post-thrash.
