EXODUS Guitarist Gary Holt: "ROB HALFORD Still Waves The Flag Proudly For All Of Us" Metal-Hammer.de has issued an interview with
EXODUS guitarist
Gary Holt.
The following is an excerpt from the interview:
Q: What made you listen to heavy metal in the first place?
A: "That's a good question! For me, it all strated with hard rock, but the harder it was, the better. From there it just developed into a love for it,
JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, and the whole NWOBHM thing just dragged me in
for life."
Q: Who personifies metal the most for you - and why?
A: ROB HALFORD. That dude has always been all about metal and nothing else for so long. He still waves the flag proudly for all of us."
Q: What's the best metal album ever, in your opinion?
A: "RAINBOW - Rising. You need not own another album."
Q: Which is the most important metal band of all time, for you?
A: "For me, there are so many, but
VENOM and
ANGELWITCH had such a huge influence on me. It was like hearing metal for the first time when I heard those two bands.”
