GARY HOLT interview on the making of the new EXODUS album and wild backstage SLAYER stories.

Gary Holt is the coolest dude right now in metal. So laid back and down the earth. Just evil grandpa

My grandparents were born in the 1920s, so they were nothing like Gary Holt. Yeah, Gary’s generation are grandparents now - insane.

It’s almost a shame that only real metal heads know the true importance of Exodus and how they’ve consistently released razor sharp albums even at some “low points” of the Metal timeline. That being said as a human being, Gary Holt is among the best. A true metal hero and stays so Fng humble!

Gary Holt, the Norm Macdonald of guitar. I love the guy! Listened to Exodus since high school. It was awesome to see him with Slayer. I'm glad that he stood in for Jeff Hanneman but he will definitely be missed RIP brother..

[@michaelrosales5891]

Unpopular opinion, Shovel Headed Kill Machine is Exodus’s best album. Super beefy production paired with some of the most devastating musical performances in Rock and Roll history make this album stand out. Even the vocals are a top tier thrash assault that hasn’t been matched. Wild to hear that it was the only album they recorded in a traditional studio to date.

[@davidperez5089]

True it's pretty thick sounding. Plus it's missing Tom H., Toss up between the first two imo for best Exodus.

[@bloodpollution21]

Bro that album is the shit

[@zakur0hako]

[@archangelofcoffee922]

I love how Gary is rocking an Obituary hat. Him, Millie Petrozza and Eric Peterson are some of the few old thrash guys that give a shit AT ALL about death metal. Most others scoff at it making "cookie monster noises" and think they're better than everyone else and everything else is noise (looking at you Kerry King). Gary is as real as it gets.

Okay this is going to be redundant and not worth it down but I was just curious that those who are on this page I mean to me Gary Holt is the baddest river on the planet no it's not no Steve I just hadriani Van Halen but the dude can make risk like no one else he absolutely can't and no one can touch him but I was just wondering out of all the bands that are out there right now which are thousands upon thousands what are your top 20 bands I mean you don't have to put them in order or anything like that but the top 20 bands write them down cuz I'm really curious to see which ones are your top 20 favorite artists,.............. Number one of course this accident is with Gary hole anything like Gary holtz is going to be a number one number two I would have to say dismember number three is hypocrisy fours flesh crawl 5 and sinister six is early Slayer for take the 90s later out knocking and tough ones and number seven I would definitely put, then I can't believe how hard it is to think of asking your favorite band and put in an order cuz I mean really all I do is listen to Roku but definitely on Roku cancer find a dog and a would be .a
