"Indians" stomps out of Among the Living, Anthrax's third album, from 1987, and it has stuck around ever since as one of the songs that define the band, a fixture on three of their best-ofs. All five players share the writing credit: Joey Belladonna on lead vocals, Scott Ian and Dan Spitz on guitars, Frank Bello on bass and Charlie Benante on drums. Eddie Kramer produced it with the band, engineered it with Chris Rutherford and mixed it with Paul Hamingson, and Jon Zazula served as executive producer.
It was the album's second single, its sleeve putting a Native American on a nickel-style coin against a purple field, and the Jean Pellerin video catches the band ripping through it live. It has since landed in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, in Rock Band as a download and in Rocksmith 2014.
