Gary Holt - The Godfather of Thrash

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- You had to be there. The early days of the Bay Area thrash scene, the bands that meant the most and learning guitar from Metallica’s Kirk Hammett. We discuss thoughts on religion and spirituality, and revisit each Exodus album. Getting the call that Slayer is playing again, and never wanting to take Jeff’s spot. The new top 4 and his favorite guitars and memorabilia.

Always great to hear Gary Holt!
I can't stand when someone hates on another person's taste in music. We get one life so enjoy whatever you love and rock it 🤘🖤🤘
Disapproval is not "hate". People who think otherwise have been brainwashed by infantile pop culture. The idea that everything is equal belongs to childish morons.
I’ve seen people blast Gary because he says Prince is the greatest musician, it’s like some supposedly unwritten rule that if you are a thrash metal band you can’t listen to anything but that.. I’ve got a playlist of 20 hours of all pop/rock songs for when I’m doing Uber and Lyft (driving)
@@williamhagan294 That's an extremely lame unwritten rule! I'm glad you listen to whatever you like without caring about being judged. Earlier I was rocking Hatebreed and then went straight to Cyndi Lauper. After Cyndi I listened to some classical music and also what I've been digging a lot lately, Hip-hop violin instrumental.
I probably COULD stand it because words are just that. Sticks and stones, right? I just don't, because chances are I don't give a rat's ass what some random person who means nothing to me has to say. I don't talk to anybody about music in real life because I just know whatever they have to say is stupid as fuck and will diminish my own IQ in the process. Besides... Opinions are like assholes - they stink!
@@williamhagan294Wow, you're so cool and not a poser, a hundred song pwaywist on a stweaming service, awe! Buy physical or don't call yourself a music fan. Taaaaaape on that mouth shut
Gary is absolutely right about Prince. The dude could fucking shred.
And people give him shit about that. Like oh you can’t like him because you wrote Bonded by Blood and if you like Prince then Gary would lose all his metal credibility.. I didn’t like Prince back in the 80’s when I was 10 but I have so much respect for him now.
Finally! A metalhead speaks out about Taylor! Praise, brother!
When Taylor speaks out about metal, it's only to say it's noise and screaming. Don't stand up for those who wouldn't stand up for you.
@@BigBubbaTakeYoAzzshe has never said anything of the sort. And it has to be reciprocal: metalheads who want respect from pop artists but don't respect pop artists are being hypocritical...
@@nocturnal03 she's never been asked. That's what she would say.
@bigswaggy298 that's called an assumption.
@@BigBubbaTakeYoAzz you don't know that, so your argument is quite stupid.
Legendary guitarist. Please keep your comments to music Gary.
Where did all this animosity towards beyonce coming from? The most credits she has on a song was 15 people, but only because of 2 samples used -- one being led zeppelin drums sample where she credited all 6 members. So he's basically churning out misinformation here.
People have been spewing hate for Beyoncé for years. From she’s talentless and overrated to she doesn’t write her own songs, it’s ridiculous.
@@lashercollette88 Beyonce is different from Taylor in that she's so private and basically absent from public exposure except dropping albums & performances, so I never actually understand this excessive hate.
Does anyone else think that's a little two-faced from Gary? Complain about people hating on Taylor but then blindly proceeds to hate on Beyonce? And there are plenty of songs in Beyonce's discography where there are very few people with writing credits. For instance Be Alive. That was solely written by Beyonce and Dixon (no one else!) or Dangerously in Love 2, that was just written by Beyonce and McCalla (no one else) etc etc. I think Gary is being a little disingenuous with his criticisms of Beyonce. Also i think he's spreading misinformation.
I love Gary's take on Taylor Swift. He is so right about her talent of songwriting and her personality. I would recommend folklore and evermore to the interviewer. Her songs are not that glittery at all. Also, didn't like she phrased the question as "taylor swift problem". As if liking her songs is kind of problem. She expected Gary to say bad things about her, very unfortunate.
She tries to redeem herself but... she's clueless! She thinks Travis is a 49er😂 she should at least have listened to all her music before saying it's glittery! Hopefully, this isn't what she does for a living!
I really admire Holt's backbone in standing up for a fellow musician and admitting she's a talent he likes, listens to and admires. We need more people with a spine brave enough to be who they are and secure enough not to follow the sheep. ❤
The host has a "Taylor Swift problem". I like Gary's take on this too
I bet the host hasn't heard anything TS beyond what is in the media.
Taylor Swift is the head sheep, with a heard of millions of bland women trying to fit in.
This is hysterical,she was trying so hard to get him to say something negative. He's not the first musician outside of the pop genre to give kudos to Taylor. Still don't know why she brought Taylor into the conversation.Hoping she'd get more views I guess.
@@user-kg1nr3rb5n no, it’s something my girlfriends and I talk about often, we’re a large group of women in our 30’s & 40’s and noneeee of us get the hype about her music, and we’ve tried, we just can’t with it. We send each other memes back and forth about people who also don’t like Taylor Swift music, so I assumed it was in the wheelhouse of his brand, K the Kardashians… I thought Taylor Swift would be a natural transition
@@user-kg1nr3rb5n additionally, please listen to other interviews of mine, I take a lot of time to write and research them, I write them from the perspective of really loving the bands I interview, I don’t do anything for views
he's such a great lad
Great interview!
Wow!! when I was 12 my favorite Artists were Judas Priest, Metallica, Slayer!!!.... and Prince!!!
F yea Gary holt. Love it
One of my guitar heros 🏆. Kreator and Death Angel are underrated in my opinion and solid choices.
Somebody expected him to start barking at Taylor but the story got a twist😅
Yesssss lol that is exactly what happened 😂
Fantastic interview great job. 😁👍
Not sure what you were listening to, she's awkward.
@@brendabuchanan1975 the Gary Holt interview stupid comment
@@brendabuchanan1975 Yeah, she was hard to listen to.
great man,,great attitude
Class👍😺
Best Exo era (for me) with Rob Dukes on vocals , no doubt , fcking crushing , sad how they get rid of him after 10 years taking Exo to the best level of his time ever , by the way also a good friend of mine , check out a demo we´ve done with him.
JUSTICIA / ROB DUKES - HATE MORE LOVE LESS - [Demo]
Cheers
gary is the nice guy of metal
Gary is a friend of mine, and a awesome dude
but if we’re talking really about “The Godfather Of Thrash" it’s Dave Mustaine he was thrashing it up with his first band Panic (then Metallica) , at that time Gary was not even playing guitar
Cheers
@@justicia8393 he’s one of them for sure 👍
@@ScandalousPodcast yeah one of them , after Dave & James ,too .
Thrash starts with Metallica & Megadeth 😉 all others come later behind👍🏼
@@justicia8393 but stilllllllllll one of em!
@@ScandalousPodcast😂yesssssssss
@justicia8393 Exodus was form before Metallica and Megadeth became a thing. However, Exodus started with British heavy metal before they became thrash later on.
the VOICE is an instrument which requires training and maintenance, i would expect someone in the music industry to be aware of this. anyone who really knows music, KNOWS beyoncé is a top tier VOCALIST.
the woman has been studying italian arias, operas and arabic scales since she was 4! she has been TAUGHT resonance, phrasing, clarity, agility, placement, breath control, diction, stamina, AND how to maintain her instrument for 40 years! mathew had her running in heels WHILE singing for years!
go ahead and watch her perform dangerously in love last year in atlanta and marvel at how she hits the #G5 with ease. watch her sing 1+1, i care, before i let go, love on top, flaws and all, resentment, etc. LISTEN to her stacked harmonies on god made you beautiful, me myself and i, pray you catch me, american requiem, etc. pay ATTENTION to the background vocals in flawless, partition, spirit, bigger, etc. that lady is an INSTRUMENT. also not to mention, she can play the piano, flute, horns and drums.
I wish he would show more respect to Hanneman and play a solo. Even in solos with solid melodic lines, such as Antichrist, Holt plays properly.
Impact is imminent my favorite song ever plus I got 2 of your serial killer picks in Detroit thanks Gary
Great interview and glad slayer is playing shows again but dave lombardo should be behind the kit then its 3 orginal guys
nothing against paul. But you couldn't be more right!
Paul is great but he isn't Dave. I don't see them ever allowing him back in the band though with all the drama. Not that I blame Dave about the drama. All for members of Slayer were getting shafted @@travisg999
Kirk Hammett taught Gary how to play guitar, so he must be the Godfather of Thrash.
Taylor and Beyoncé are very special people undeniably and Americans Loved and Respected internationally. So please stop with your negativity and jealousy. God bless them both and god bless America I hope they both help with the situation we have in our country now. Evil negative people are trying to devide us
I went to school with these guys. Back in 82 when it was Tom, Jeff, David and Kerry..
This guy has some wild takes. First says autotune doesn’t help artists who can sing when Taylor is the primary example of that. Then goes to say Beyonce is overrated and praises Adele’s singing even though Adele is no where near the vocalist Beyonce is, Adele live is famously inconsistent and has had to restarts performances because she goes flat or off key.
And it’s interesting he is lauded as a guitarist while failing to recognize the voice is an instrument and Beyoncé is a top tier instrumentalist with her voice.
He doesn’t even bring up the fact that as a producer, singer, dancer and performer Beyonce blows Taylor out of the water. And that Beyonce has been releasing genre bending and experimental music for the past 15 years that is light years ahead in terms of melody, production and importance.
Kamala Harris for god sake is using her song Freedom for her campaign. You can’t do that with a Taylor Swift song.
And this is good the this fake "black woman", responsible for incarciration of black people for nothing and using them as slave labour in prisons, is using a Beyonce song, what does this say for Beyonce?
Taylor can't sing though. She can write, but she can't sing. Adele has a good voice, but a poor technique...that's why she injures her voice and has had vocal surgeries. There are many voice coaches and music critics that rate Beyonce's vocal above Adele's (e.g. Rolling Stone Mag). Beyonce has a solid vocal technique and is vocally more versatile than Adele. Adele can only sing ballads (gets a bit boring after a while). Beyonce can sing most things/genres
@@user-tf8qf3kb5e yes that’s my point. You’re are basically pointing out what I’m saying.
Imagine being such a terrible interviewer that you try to randomly talk trash about an artist who has nothing to do with the interview and your interviewee shuts you down. What is this second rate garbage?
@@FennaBlue relax, when you interview, you have to be imaginative and creative, saying we have a Taylor Swift problem is a funny play on his brand/ merch line he created “K the Kardashians”, saying he needs to extend his Kardashian merch line to Taylor Swift is witty and funny 🤘
You’re neither imaginative nor creative. You have zero chemistry and are terrible at your job. But nice try coming to the comments to defend your complete lack of skill.
No it's just internalized misogyny princess.@@ScandalousPodcast
@@ScandalousPodcastto you, it may be witty, but that really was out of the blue and random. I'm glad that you interviewed Gary, though. Bonded by blood is a great album, and the work that he did with slayer is just fantastic.
What does hating the Kardashians have to do with Taylor swift? Gary poked fun for one of them wearing a slayer shirt. There's nothing at all about Taylor, except when the interviewer brought her up, and and Gary shut her down.
I love that he checked your internalized misogyny. Stop trying so hard to be a pick me ......
Fuck off swiftie. Not liking trash music =/= misogyny. If the conversation was about Courtney LaPlante (who you probably don't even know about) the tone would be very different.
He's not wrong 🤷🏾♀️
Yes, he is. Beyonce is a much stronger vocalist and dancer than Taylor. Taylor is a much stronger writer than Beyonce. Just because Gary places more value on writing as a skill, that doesn't give him the right to insult Beyonce and ignore her vocal and dance abilities. Gary came off as a bit of an ignorant prat in that interview.
He's not the Godfather of thrash.. that would be Jeff "Mantas" Dunn..
It was hard to listen to him defend Swift.
It was harder to listen to this DB keep trying to get him be a hater! She sucks!
Hope you grow up from that stuck up dogmatic worldview.
These kind of small minded comments will never go away.
Especially when Swift wouldn't extend the same courtesy.
We found the MAGA cult member.
People who say "prolly" have severe intellectual restrictions.
Oh no😂😂 poor Gary Holt has early onset dementia 😂😂😂
Oh no, a gatekeeper doesn't like it when a musician reckognizes musicians.
Why does a talented, successful, & all around nice woman bother you so much? Dare I say misogyny? Seek help.
@@1972LittleC he hates the Kardashians but watches Reality TV with his wife 😂
@@DEFKONSIXTYSIXlml let me guess; perpetual single?
@@1972LittleC lol married with children but that doesn't mean I'm a simp and a loser like you lol defending Taylor Swift?? Come on bro!! Heavy Metal's entire ethos is ANTI-POP!!
Who is the poser? Never heard of him.
Dave Mustaine is the godfather of thrash metal, not gary holt lol
I came here to say that!!!! I was confused! Mr. Dave Mustaine is the God Father of Thrash Metal NOT Gary Holt
I thought it was a great title :)
@@ScandalousPodcast Hi. Yes, I understand that! Great show. You've got a new fan! Keep up your great work...
@@raphaellall6270 so kind! Thank you! I’ll keep
The interviews coming!!!
@@ScandalousPodcast You suck
If you're pro-drum triggers, then you might as well be pro-auto tune.
Lmao
Are you 12? 😅
@@grimfist79 Are you gay?
sorry but gary holt isnt the "god father of thrash" You're a millennial who wasnt even alive when thrash was starting. You've probably never even listened to Testament who did the most to evolve thrash as a genre. Suicidal Tendencies was another big name. Slayer was big but many bands contributed to the trash metal scene.
I’m a millennial, he’s one of the god fathers of thrash for sure, and I do listen to Testament and Suicidal, go judge someone else you’ve never met before 🤘
@@ScandalousPodcast lol stay mad poser
@@ScandalousPodcast uh oh someone's mad
Leave millennials out of your argument! I'm a millennial (born in 80) and i've been listening to Metallica, Slayer. Exodus and Megadeth since i was in elementary school. Just because you came before us DOES NOT FUCKING MAKE YOU SUPERIOR! Especially with that shitty attitude!
Seen exodus on the force of habit tour
Lost all respect for Holt after I found out he's a communist.
Gary Holt is a communist? - I don't think so. Where did you get that information from
a communist supporting Obama?!? Hahahaha, what an ignoramous!
agree
