@@jalliboy I prefer the riffs of Holy Wars to Painkiller. I still like Painkiller, but Holy Wars in my opinion is superior. To me, it’s like someone asking me what’s better, Master of Puppets or Rock Hard Ride Free? I have yet to find a Priest song that can hold a candle to anything Metallica or Megadeth. Unless it’s black album or later Metallica. Now, if we were talking Iron Maiden, that’s a whole other story. There’s plenty of Maiden that holds up to The Big 4.

[@shotaholic1]

thank you very much. I was shocked how fast it came together. it’s like when a band goes into practice and just starts jamming, an hour later they have a whole new song. usually takes me multiple sittings, but had a little extra downtime and it just went fast!! as for Megadeth, the entire Rust In Peace is like this…fast, aggressive and completely amazing. if you liked this song, you would love the album overall.

"Is anybody wearing a shirt ?" 😅 I had a VHS in the early 1990s with behind-the-scenes interviews ,etc with Dave E. & Dave M. Dave Mustaine said "you know music video directors🤪" They chose an airplane hangar in Long Beach (I think ) to shoot this in on a 100+ degree day, and they were there all day, he said something like they all sweated soooo much, the drummer Nick Menza drank like 5 or more of the biggest Gatorades you could get at that time,(he motioned his hands, way bigger than the quarts, I think I saw 64s or bigger back then), "and Nick didn't get up to go pee once".

[@shotaholic1]

actually, that’s only part of the facts. Dave’s gone on record about the “Holy Wars” part and it was inspired by a show in Ireland where he spouted off and said something about the conflict with the IRA. the band was asked to leave and escorted away in a bulletproof van.

True story. I'm 50 years old and still a metal head (it's in my blood). As a youngster I was given so much grief about my choice of music (was called a satanist, whatever that nonsense is). One day, my old man got on my case about it (poor idiot) so bad, I had only one thing to say to him. LISTEN TO THE F***** LYRICS, AND THEN GET BACK TO ME! He did...😳 finally he understood that this music was a way to release my immature ignorant youth angst. Chuck D once said "rap music is the CNN of the ghetto". Well, for us. Metal (specially Thrash Metal) was and is the same thing. Youngsters, get over the "screaming" and like my old man, listen to the f*ing lyrics!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@shotaholic1]

hey man, I’m only a few short years behind you. my parents did the same thing. next thing I know, my mom stole my Metallica Black album! I also had a teacher who would jokingly get on me for liking such “crazy music.” so, I loosely used Countdown To Extinction for a report and he came to me, “wow, I did NOT expect this. this was amazing.”
