(Metal Hammer) Anthrax's Scott Ian has recalled the iconic Big Four Superjam - in which he and members of Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer performed together for the first time - in an animated video.

The guitarist took the stage with others, including Metallica vocalist and guitarist James Hetfield and Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine, to cover Diamond Head's Am I Evil? at Warsaw's Sonisphere Festival in Poland on their 'Big Four' tour in 2010.

Ian tells Rolling Stone: "It was really an amazing feeling to be on that stage. I can look back at pictures or watch it back on DVD and you just see that lineup - James, me and Mustaine. I'm kind of able to look at it as an outsider, from a fan's point of view, like, 'That's so cool.' The crowd went nuts when it happened.

"It was one of those moments, one of those things for me that never goes away. I could easily, at any time of the day, go back and feel that feeling, that energy. It was so powerful and so much fun to be a part of.

"We only played up to the middle section of Am I Evil?, but I wish we had done the whole six minutes. We were only up there for two-and-a-half minutes or something. So it was short in reality, but it seemed even faster because of the excitement." Read more and watch the video here.
