[@Mike4metal]

I remember when You Guys Opened for Black Sabbath in Oakland (Kick Ass Show) and Rick was Running Through The Halls all Fired Up After Exodus Set! He was Screaming and Yelling Like a Mad Man! I High Fived Him as He was Running down a Ramp! Awesome Memories!🤘🏻🤘🏻❤️🔥🔥

[@wc1994]

This is the best episode I've seen!!! From all the pictures to the old Slayer and Megadeth footage... I grew up with all this music, but I didn't grow up in the Bay Area. I could listen to these stories all day!!! Thanks Zet and Rick for all the Music and memories!!! I love you guys

[@WALDENSOFTWARE]

Tha bay Area ain't what it used to be ☹

[@andrewmcgill9544]

Nope...filled with Marxists.

[@MINOTAURunOfficial]

Classic interview. Best of the best! Great job Walt & Zet! Horns up for Rick! !⛧🤘

[@ThatkidwithCP]

Hey Zet and Rick! Thanks for all the music!

[@Nicholass3092]

Zetro i just would like to say Thank You for each and every episode of the Vault. I sincerely appreciate you taking time from your no doubt- busy days to make sure the fans like me are entertained. I always look forward to your interviews, i love hearing about all the ol war stories from back in the day.. I would also like to say Thank You to you, the rest of Exodus, and Death Angel, for playing an added show during the bay strikes back tour in Louisville Ky a couple months ago. I remember you saying that it was supposed to be a night off for the bands and instead yall did that show. I had tickets to see the show at newport music hall or wherever in april or may after the covid delay and i didnt get to go because 3 days before the show my checking account was hacked qnd all my money was stolen. I was beyond upset about missing the show because that. So thank y'all very much for playing louisville in september. Nothing was stopping me from seeing that show. That was my first time getting to see EXODUS Live !!! I'm Looking forward to seeing Exodus again the next time yall come thru the bluegrass state!!! \,,,/

[@junkbox_]

The first time I ever saw Exodus was from the same POV and position as the camera in the final video, although not that particular show. That was my initiation, front row barrier in front of Rick Hunolt and it is one of my most vivid concert memories. It was the first time I had ever seen a metal band of that caliber -- and up close like that to boot. This 2nd instalment was really fun, I thoroughly enjoyed the Legacy demo and the other snipits from the early days of the Bay area timeline. I love Exodus and always will!

[@21stcenturymetal31]

I love these. Please keep doing them. It brings back so many memories of those old days. Exciting times

[@RedFlyRuledByTheRiff]

Hey Walt, great job on schooling the idiot on Blabber about what's what. You're completely right. This is exactly why these interviews are so important. To capture the thoughts and stories of the musicians and fans that were actually on the scene is even more vital in this age of instant idiocy!

[@thesoultransferprotocol721]

I was at the Ruthie's and Keystone shows. It was a time to behold. Exodus and Slayer!!!! Total madness!!! It was a time you knew that was about to EXPLODE into a genre of Metal that would stand alone and crush everything in its path. So fortunate I was able to witness and party and live in this early scene in the Bay Area. Thank you fellas so much for the great memories!!! Just saw you in February at THE FOX Theater in Oakland. Lookin well Rick. You guys are KILLIN IT STILL!!!

[@jake.e.wanabee5333]

I did know he played but never seen any footage. I can't thank you Zetro enough for playing this. I grew up in a small Australian country town and my whole teens was being an outcast at school listening to Exodus and Ozzy and to this day I've never seen you guys live in Australia. I was playing Bonded by Blood cassette on my walkman to the few Slayer fans at school in the 80's and they were like who the fuck are these guys🤦‍♂. IMO, the Big 4 should be a Big 5, and Exodus deservedly belongs there and on top. Gary and Rick are criminally underrated as guitarists and are the KK Downing and Glen Tipton of thrash and you guys to this day blow everyone away. You gotta make it Down Under please🙏🤟🤟.

[@krisstieghorst7415]

Just caught this Thanks so much for coming on Rick!! Glad to see another episode of THE VAULT too!! 🤘💀🤘Cheers from The Stieghorst's🍻( 😂these last few episodes explain so much!! 😉yep 88)

[@RiffMajestic]

I've always loved that intro riff, crushing!! 'Within the Walls'. 'Impact' was really good. Rick ruled, his solos always had more of a theme, more melodic, but could also shred. His style with Gary's...just so cool together. Prime 'H-Team' was some of my favorite stuff.

[@jontayyee3]

Pretty funny that Rick is so surprised people remember when albums come out. Especially his own, haha.

[@pathaden]

Damn....when you start going through the demos.....FUCK...MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE!!!

[@dylangadwa3119]

Last show in London, Canada was an absolute RAGER! Here's hoping to see you guys again soon! Hope to see a date with Anthrax and BLS for Toronto...

[@gaslitplanet5749]

Don't forget about Razor from Guelph and Sacrifice from Toronto. ;) Fuckin awesome bands in Ontario too, at least, back in the day.

[@dylangadwa3119]

@@gaslitplanet5749 Absolutely! I bought Evil Invaders when it first came out ... and still listen to it regularly. Check out the Eve of Darkness book on the history of Toronto/CDN metal.

[@gaslitplanet5749]

@@dylangadwa3119 Awesome! I will check this book out for sure. My favorite Razor album for sure - Evil Invaders. But Violent Restitution was almost as good. Sheepdog's voice was really great on those tunes as well. Peace Dylan!

[@ThommyofThenn]

What year? Modern tour?? And Razor is absolutely god tier. Probably the most underrated, violent thrash bands

[@barrelrolldog]

"we've all been kicked out of our own bands" LOL this interview is legendary.

[@acersteel3735]

Very correct sir. Dave is the God father of thrash!!!!

[@lawrencefine5020]

Growing up on the East coast I always envied the West coast Thrash scene. You guys had all the cool bands. Us east coasters had to wait for you guys like Slayer, Exodus, Metallica, Megadeth, and Testament to tour to the small clubs, which made it all the more fun to go see these bands cuz all we had was the crossover HC, Punk, and hair metal bands on the East coast. Hearing you guys reminiscing the good ole days and how the fuck you survived it is a hoot. Good to see Rick survived it.

[@sacrarioofficial5424]

Excellent Episode!!!!!!!!! Rick Hunolt is a great person and great musician!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@thatchzembo1001]

Wow Great trip into the past guys thanks!

[@diydan6045]

I was there for Day in the Dirt, I'll always remember those killer shows.

[@KillingTimeKillingYou]

Dude I love this man right here. Rick gave me some guitar lessons and hung out/answered my super fan questions in 04-05 when I was a young ass dork. Great episode thank you. Rick much love to your family /nick and shouts out to mad at Sam!!!

[@MCRUE78]

I LOVE THE TOXIC VAULT !!! Zetro and Rick Hunolt rules!! I’m Smoking a bowl in the name of Thrash ! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@gaslitplanet5749]

Never laughed so hard in my life, listening to you guys telling us about the early days. Fuck I miss those days. Thank you guys SO much for all the many years of heavy fucking music. Love that Hunolt said Dave is the godfather of thrash metal. Fucking epic interview guys. Love that Zetro is a walking encyclopedia of thrash dates and events. Also loved "Creature Features" tune Zetro. LOL. Nice work in a funny AF way. Through all the years, love u all. Made my life what it is today. Will always respect what Banzai Records gave to my life, growing up. Thank fucking god for them. \m/ \m/

[@ThommyofThenn]

I got to say I'm loving the implementation of all the footage and clips. Adds a ton of context

[@Godflesh88v2]

Great stuff Zetro!

[@cliffanderson7544]

Rick looking good! EXODUS \m/

[@ultimatemetalguitartones]

FUCK YEAH!

[@madgascoin2901]

But who remembers going to the Hard Rock with Rick Hunolt and Paul Baloff after the Huntridge show in '97 while temporarily being a member of the Lunatic Parade in Phoenix at the Mason Jar?

[@johnfrew2798]

Just you guys had fun

[@johnfrew2798]

Remember komadorski village in Dublin CA was the Getto where my tuna french GF lived

[@TheMetalMag]

Glad he still enjoys his axe

[@TOMARINER]

Deathrow!!!Put it on the next album!

[@sandorbeckers6974]

That one part of the Forbidden Evil demo was clearly taken by Rob Flynn and re-used with Vio-lence!

[@anthonysuski9248]

Awesome!!! 💀 😎 👍

[@johnfrew2798]

Day on dirt was the Best gang green smoked and that band from Finland

[@johnfrew2798]

Sounds good

[@jerryallenvideographer7796]

Hey Rick, good to see you brother! Great episode!

[@berns009]

cool stuff!! but your definitely off with some of those dates! that megadeth footage from the keystone berkeley is from 1984 not 1983. kill em all was released in july 1983. cliff joined metallica in early 1983 and played his first show at the stone on march 5th 1983 (exodus with kirk opened) ; kirk played his first show with metallica on april 16th 1983 in NJ. yea i definitely agree dave mustaine was the focal point of early metallica but much had to do with him being a few years older; he was much more charismatic and outgoing than most in the scene so many looked up to him! he definitely picked up the most chicks back then!😁

[@GroundandPound1988]

Rick and gary he's exodus !!!

[@mikekraz6193]

Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnfrew2798]

That must of been so hard to sing that stuff I cant sing happy birthday

[@Graveyard_666]

Rick talks exactly like my old supervisor. "Back in my day..."

[@kennethdutton4153]

Looks like Kerry King playing lead for Megadeth

[@marcothimian5111]

Killer again Andy airborn next please!

[@jake.e.wanabee5333]

This is freaking AWESOME, can someone please confirm if the second guitarist in the Megadeth Keystone footage at the 34+minute mark is or is not Kerry FN King.

[@ZetrosToxicVault]

It is !!Kerry played in Megadeth for a short time back in the day

[@drunk247]

The Megadeth footage with Kerry hits so much harder in this context

[@43stevox]

I was wondering who was playing guitar. It was Kerry King?

[@joshh3612]

@@43stevox yes he filled in on guitar before they found Chris Poland. Dave wanted him in the band but he was committed to Slayer.

[@johnfrew2798]

Paul beo wolf was the main to replace by Steve

Rick and Cliff lowkey look alike

[@andrewmcgill9544]

The bitterness and jealousy toward Metallica is amazing.

[@johnfrew2798]

He's the boss of bosses he is exodus lead guitar

[@SCORBYNEWTONIII]

whats the song megadeth are playing in 83 footage?

[@stuartewoldt1513]

Sounds like Lokking Down the Cross but that show was from early 1984. WHT weird is they played some song off of SFSGSW at that show and I can't remember what it was. To lazy to look it up. But Dave had some of those songs already and I have no idea why he didn't put them on Peace Sells.

[@nethbt]

Rick looks like a cross between Kirk Hammett and Angus Young

[@ExodusAttacKGR]

33:03 id say speed metal sir :D

[@dudehuh5491]

cliff was before kirk

[@johnfrew2798]

But we had FAnG and Rancid to listen to

[@johnfrew2798]

Killed all blew up the band to next level they must of had professional help in NYC set the standard for all metal bands had to measure up to their level of experize

You got sponsors bra? 😂

[@hoofhearted6900]

Dave is the godfather of thrash!?!?!.....You're damn right he is.

[@johnfrew2798]

Yes Metallica made metal music in the Bay area out us on the map everyone else had to follow in their shadow

[@grahfkarate1799]

Hearing Ricks opinion on Dave is cool. A lot of shit talking between both sides. The result of all of it is I think people forget Dave was a huge part of Metallica.

[@johnfrew2798]

Not my cup of tea I don't know why I never got in to meatal

[@johnfrew2798]

Tired out for social unrest drunk of my ass they don't call us we'll call you they didn't they hired Jason

[@citylights8521]

If Dave ever hears this the universe will explode. Eventhough I think it’s total bullshit what Rick is saying.

Rick was there, you weren't.
