One of their greatest songs.

In my opinion, this is the best album they ever made.

I don't know why, but every time this song comes on, I imagine that I'm in a training montage of an 80's movie. lol

Probably because that's about the time frame this music was created during.

I don't what is more awesome about this song: the amazing chugging riff, the chunky bass guitar, the killer drum beat, or Joey Belladonna's songbird voice.

Screams in the night!

Probably one of the best songs - if not THEE best song - on this masterpiece of an album, and Joey's power scream at 3:53 (in the vein of Rob Halford or Eric Adams of Manowar) is just legendary..

The intro is magical.

God,this track is a perfect example of why I adore Scott and Dan's guitars sound on this album. They're just so damn chorusy and lively, and they really help to make sure every spot of the album is covered, and not feeling empty like a lot of the songs feel on Among The Living, which is a shame, because I love Among. But jeez, if Among had Spreading's production, I'd be drooling over it~

That first minute gives me chills every time dude.

Great Song...Great Lyrics...Great Album...

Screams in the night

one of my fav cuts from this fucking sweet album! takes me way back! metal memories live forever!

Few weeks ago, I downloaded this record to my ipod. Since then, I play it almost everyday. Didn't remember when was the last time I heard it.... It had to be years ago, maybe a decade... I had this record on cassete! Love this song! Also, if you want to know more about the end of Hitler, watch The Downfall.

It's pretty much obligatory to play this song at full volume with the bass all the way up.

That drum beat is epic.

Great band! Saw them on this tour at the Paradise in Boston!! Great guys they hanged out with us outside before the show.

such an underrated song. my favorite song from this album

Top ten Period! This is a masterpiece!

SCREAMS IN THE NIGHT!

By far their most underated song.

Looking back, this is more melodic and sophisticated than “Among the Living”

Fucking perfect song. The best of this album.

The beginning of this song kinda sounds like "Indians". "Spreading The Disease" is the BEST Anthrax album EVER!!!

ANTHRAX FUCKING RULES!!!

I miss this classic thrash stuff. Felt so heavy and important!!

Haven't listened to this in such a long time i'm ashamed of myself :( fucking amazing album

Scotts sound & Hetfields sound & Gustofsons sound .... Those 3 guys were my foundation for what I loved about metal

The song that got me into anthrax

I love the "Manilla Road meets Iron Maiden" feel of that song, more heavy/US power than thrash in many ways, a great track with inspired riffs and melody! At that time being a thrash band wasn't just playing at the same beat all the time and recycling the same riffs ever and ever, those guys grew up in the 70s and took inspiration from the wide musical range of that period, modern thrash bands should the same instead of taking inspiration from just one aspect of thrash (some actually do, like Vektor or Revocation, who developped their own thing then, but most others just play boring generic up-tempo thrash without any identity).

Spitz's solo = awesome

Bass is sick , guitar riffs is sick , drums is sick

CHEESE! IN THE NIGHT!

damn.. was hoping there would be a live version on..

AMAZING song

If someone wanted to start listening to thrash this album would be on my short list of recommendations

"Spreading The Disease" is most definitely ANTHRAX's best album,I'm with you 100%!!! I'm a huge ANTHRAX fan and love most everything that they've ever done,but this album is totally "The Shit"!!!

“He is, but a solitary man”

Hey man,AWESOME profile picture...ROLL TIDE!!! and HAILZ to you AND ANTHRAX!

Best song !

Anyone else feel like the build up at 3:50 could have been so much better? It's awesome... then it just dies off going into a verse again.

Anthrax rules

Everyone says Among the Living is their best....I disagree. This is the shit

Among the living has the title track, Indians, One World, Caught in a mosh, nfl, imitation of life etc, pretty much most of their best songs and surpass most of these on this album, that is definitely a better album

Metal level 1000 ☠🤘

Probably one of the last albums I will listen to before I blow my head off or jump off of a bridge. A god damn gem.

To me this song is the perfect example on how much Anthrax are influenced by Iron Maiden. It is so meldoc and even the main riff... is a gallop! On top of that this song would sound great if Bruce Dickinson sang it, in my opinion. But: Joey Belladonna is my favorite metal vocalist and he did a phenomenal job singing this great song!

This is a "belated" reply to your 4 year old (but STILL on point!) comment...YES!!! Yes,it is their best album and this song is AWESOME as well!

da o je veliki anthrax

@saberbazer Lmao!!! nice one

The drum intro reminds me of Indians

... that was when anthrax were still cool...

@Cyanarchy ya that guy, i knew it was joey somethin, whatever thanks man

Solo disfrutar.....

The beginning of Indians is good, this is ok, but bothing special to me. BUT it kinda makes the song better =)

@TheDimebag94 soooo legendary album?

ad 1: unless you speak German better than i speak English you'd better not complain about me butchering English. ad 2: so you say you know German history. prove it. ad 3: all i did was taking quotes from the song and comparing them to German history. they all fit. conclusion: anthrax sing about hitler in this song. prove me wrong or an hero.

Monetizing a whole album is lame. Get the dumb commercials off there. You're not going to get any money off 20K plays.
