as a teenager I recognized this album musicianship for what it is, pure greatness. It wasn't until I was in Afghanistan many years later, that the lyrics came back to me and I suddenly realized the heaviness of the lyrics. I truly understood then, the reality of them. Dave was not just signing about humanity's past, but also the present and future. It became a daily anthem for my crew, and we played and sang along while getting the truck ready to go out on patrol.

Regarding the spider chord - it's something totally different. For example, if you had a riff that moved back and forth between a B and G power chord, you would play them at the 2nd and 3rd fret, respectively, and fret them like this: B power chord - 1st and 3rd fingers G power chord - 2nd and 4th fingers This allows you very quick and clean transitions between chords, and your hand ends up looking like a spider. On second thought there's probably a video that demonstrates this better than words do.

kiko Loureiro is a Behemot of a player, my fav out all the other leads for me, then its Marty Friedman, another guitar god (although honestly, all Megadeth guitar players are god level, even Mustaine was at some point and still is for some), I feel Mustaine voice is not as good that record, to be fair though, he was never gonna win a singing award anyways xD so doesnt matter much to me, so definetely the sell point for me is the Kiko touch what does it, as a long time Kiko fan, I specially love it cause Megadeth Kiko is an evolved version of Angra Kiko, so much cleaner and accurate than he used to be, composition wise, the record is above ok for me, but I would not put it in my top 3 Megadeth albums, maybe 5th after Youthanasia, first and second for me are Countdown for Extintion and Rust in Peace respectively, still very solid album

I've said it a million times, Dave Mustaine never gets enough credit for being THE greatest rhythm guitarist of all time. I mean, lead guitarists always get the credit, while rhythm usually gets overlooked and dismissed, like bass (a lot of times). Dave's rhythm playing is just as complex and layered as any lead, and he does it better and in more creative ways than pretty much anybody else. *edit* And yeah, I know Dave does play lead as well. But I believe rhythm is where he shines.

You are the prime example of an exemplary musician. Playing around with melodies with your guitar and having a very keen interest of understanding, not necessarily HOW your inspirations do what they do, but WHY they do what they do. It’s just so great to see people that share intense passion for music that is level to my own. When you play, you’re not trying to stick to a specific rubric or formula, whereas I feel like people get caught up in the “right way” to play or preform. But in reality, you need to find “your way” and refrain from trying to stick to a specific path of growth. Much love brother, thank you for being out here and sharing your love for music.

They have great precision yet they let things breathe just enough to take away the sterile metronome feel. I’ve tried to explain this to non drummers and it’s just something you have to feel.

When you say at the beginning, "the one, the only..." I was so happy that you said "Nick Menza." He is my favorite Heavy Metal drummer (RIP), and I feel like he is sorely underrated. He's the first drummer that I ever heard, when playing for the 'zug' palm muted rhythm guitar, he seemed to follow it with tom fills. Music was really something else at this time. Thanks for covering this song, it's always cool to see you break songs down...

That’s the best part. People who don’t like them because of his voice just don’t get it. His angsty, aggressive high pitched voice adds everything to the band. They wouldn’t be Megadeth without his voice. I personally didn’t like it too too much when I first got into them but began to realize what I do now years ago. His angry snarls and angry vocals are the finishing touch on their sound. I personally love his voice and they wouldn’t be nearly as unique without him on vocals. Not to mention, he’s an absolute machine playing and singing the riffs he plays. I don’t know how he sings a lot of those insane riffs while singing without ever fucking up. Insane talent.

I was expecting him to be a shithead, but he was incredibly gracious and we had a nice conversation about the Arizona desert. I always thought Megadeth was more dynamic than the others of that day, played smarter yet brutal as well.

Not sure what the musical inspirations might have been, but the song has 2 main thematic inspirations. The middle slow bit that's super badass is lyrically based on Marvel's The Punisher (this section bears the title "the Punishment Due"). The main part of the song (the actual "Holy Wars" part) was inspired by Dave's experience in Ireland during The Troubles. The story goes that Dave found some guy selling bootleg t-shirts in the parking lot and was angrily ordering him to stop when the dude pleaded that he was selling shirts to support "the cause." Upon hearing this, Dave allowed the guy to continue selling the shirts. Later on Dave (being the ignorant fuck that he is) proclaimed, "this one's for the cause!" before starting up a song. Well a riot broke out and the band had to be escorted away. Dave wrote the lyrics to holy wars as he sat in a bulletproof bus amongst the violence that he had kicked off ignorantly, hence the lyric "fools like me, who cross the sea and come to foreign lands"

Plays a riff 8 times in a row for no reason, when 4 times would have done just as well. 2 or 4 loops is that magic number, so your audience doesn't get bored. He just doesn't write enough content to allow more changes. Break this song down. How many different parts do you actually think there are? And considering this is two songs FORCED into one. Still only has like 4 parts in the entire song. Think about that next time you praise things you don't understand.

@@adameves5970 Good sir, there are 3 distinct riff parts before the vocals even kick in. Altogether as far as musical parts, you have the intro riff with the syncopation, the fast riff with the hammer ons and pull offs, the power chord part where it switches to a half time groove on the drums, then the verse riff - which combines part of the intro riff with a bunch of other new parts rhythmically, and has one of the coolest and most musically interesting patterns I’ve heard someone sing clean vocals over, then the Brief “up on my podium” riff. Then for part 2 of the song you have the verse riff, followed by the alternating rhythmic part that goes under Marty’s lead which is cool in and of itself as a rhythm part and is completely different than the rhythm part under the vocals here. Then you have the solo riff which combines the slow down riff from the first minute of the song with palm muting on the bridge, and then back to the fast hammer on pull off riff, leading to a building crescendo which brings back the first guitar melody in the song to a relatively stirring climax of a conclusion with the addition of a totally different vocal part and melody “next thing you know they’ll take my thoughts away.” So there’s at least 7 parts of the song even if you don’t count the rhythm riff under Dave’s solo as it’s own unique part as it combines part of the grooving riff from the first minute of the song - which I would, and would make 8 parts. It’s no April Ethereal by Opeth as far as rhythmic and musical shifts in a song but it’s got its fair share of parts, and manages to feel cohesive and come full circle with the ending vocals making the riff that repeats feel impactful rather than repetitive. Your comment is quite literally the first time I’ve ever seen someone mention the idea of boredom in regards to this song or how it’s constructed. It’s baffling. It’s not just that your opinion differs it’s that you seem genuinely negative toward someone praising this song or Mustaine as a writer. Take a step back and realize how you come off here. Megadeth’s audience doesn’t get bored listening to Holy Wars. You’re the very definition of an outlier in that regard.

Imo, they are about equals in technique, but Marty Friedman is more creative, to me, Chris Poland recicles phrasing too much, which btw says A LOT about Marty, cause Chris is the jazz player so it should be the other way around, but Marty found a way to create different phrasing ideas detached from the soundscape of jazz and metal (Marty also does some jazz-ish stuff, although as a jazz fan, I would most definetely not call him a jazz player nor would I think its a fair comparison, obviously real jazz players like Joe Pass, Gambale, etc could eat him for breakfast on a jazz enviroment, Im not a Friedman fanboy so I admit it, it is not fair to compare his jazz playing to real jazz players), in short it means they have different styles and I think Marty has more phrasing tools on his style, which attracts more people, then from the other players, Chris Broderick is probably the more technical proficient guy, personaly I hate his tone though and he sounds souless to me, probably cause of that hideos blunt gray boring ass guitar tone he uses all the time x'D, then we have Kiko, to me the greatest, and closer to how atractive to people as Marty playing can be, Kiko has the huge advantage though that he is an actual jazz player with actual jazz albums on his repertorie, + he is also an actual progressive artist, those of us that know him before he joined Megadeth know he was writing masterpieces already back when he was in Angra, and he has the technique to play whatever he wants, imo, he is in fact better now, although some people think he may be a bit slower now (most of his Angra work is played at power metal speeds) and maybe its true, I think is a fair debatable point, but regardless he is definetely 100% sounding much cleaner today than he ever did in the past, the one thing I havent seen him doing anymore though is 4 fingers tapping or more complex tapping stuff, and most definetelt he reserves some of his rythim powers for his solo work cause there is no place for that in Megadeth, but people interested should check his solo work, there we can find the real genius on his playing, I think conquer or die is a good small sample of his IMPROV phrasing that can be found in Megadeth (IT WAS improvised, he had to relearn it for the playthrough on his channel LOL)

Jamband, blues, groove player here but I love Megadeth! Dave is the Bob Dylan of metal. Dystopia is insane and I'm very much looking forward to their second release with Kiko Loureiro! I'll be there if they come to Bangkok. By the way, there is a video of Kiko warming up backstage where he breaks into a jazz blues improv that is truly masterful.

This is hilarious to me. Been on a Megadeth kick last couple days and the algorithm gets something right for once. The smile on your face is what I'm experiencing now. Been a fan since the 80's, and Marty since Hawaii. Pure gold, and still kicking ass. Kiko in present time on a whole nother level too.

The riff before the "Wage the war on organized crime" line is an absolute all-timer for me, right up there with the Cemetery Gates riff by Dimebag. The first time I saw Megadeth live they played this song in the middle of their set, and it just ruined me - could not get it out of my head. Rob Zombie followed Megadeth with his usual incredible, theatrical set, but all I could hear in my head was the Holy Wars riff recycling over and over.

I saw this in June of 91 or 92 at the Starplex in Dallas, Texas.... Clash of the Titans. Alice in Chains on their first tour opening for Slayer, Anthrax, & Megadeth... It was beyond epic, it was a life-changing experience, it was one of the top three greatest concerts I ever saw out of the hundreds I've been to over the years.

I saw this same tour in 1991 in Portland, Maine. I'm not the biggest Slayer fan but I really was into AiC, Anthrax, and Megadeth. I remember being blown away as a teenager and it too was an epic experience. It was like the 3rd concert I'd ever been to and it still sticks with me today.

That first G-major solo is the reason i pushed myself hard for learning arpeggios on electric guitar... memories... The most influential metal band rocking the most influential metal song in perfect harmony. Dave had smacked our faces with the fact that heavy metal is not just chugging power chords - and Marty is a true wizard, period. Kudos to you Mr. Palmisano giving them the respect they well-deserved. Great video.

Don't know what you generally post but Liked, Subscribed, Notifications on. Anyone that understands and feels Megadeth to this degree gets my vote. I'm moved by music that is moving from Mississippi John Hurt to Ennio Morricone and all points in between and around. Dave's artistry and professionalism is second to none. Great post man. Much respect

I think Angry Again is the pinnacle of the spider chord composition type with Dave's lyrics and snarling. It just really cuts to the point of what Megadeth is about, and probably why it remains among their most radio popular songs today.
