Gary Holt of EXODUS

Lots of things have been going on in the Exodus camp since the band´s highly praised comeback album TEMPO OF THE DAMNED was released in 2004 via Nuclear Blast Records. The band lost their vocalist Steve “Zetro” Souza on the eve of the band´s South American tour due to his other commitments in his life outside of Exodus. When the two other original Exodus members, Tom Hunting and Rick Hunolt, left Exodus due to different reasons in the same year, the band started struggling – leaving Gary Holt as the only original member left from the classic Exodus line-up. People started wondering whether Exodus´ so-called  ´second coming (or third, it depends on whether the band´s live record ANOTHER LESSON IN VIOLENCE, released in 1997, can be considered as the band´s 2nd coming or not?)´ would be over before it even had started.

Gary, however, didn´t loose faith for his life’s work, Exodus, and decided to pull the strings even tighter together in his fists and found Rob Dukes to replace Zetro on vocals, Lee Altus from the Frisco thrashers Heathen to replace Rick Hunolt for the 2nd guitar and no less than Paul Bostaph (ex-Forbidden, ex-Slayer) to replace Tom Hunting on the skinbasher´s stool. The band started rolling on the right tracks again and Exodus´ next album SHOVEL HEADED KILL MACHINE was put out with this particular line-up. For some, it never reached the same standards musically as TEMPO did, but for many, it was even better and more rewarding as far as the album´s material as a whole was concerned.

I met Gary in Helsinki on the 24th of November 2005 on the band´s on-going European tour with Hypocrisy and Keep of Kalessin, and got a chance talk him briefly about the new album, touring, celebrities, the first satanic band of all time Witchcraft Coven – and what exactly happened between Gary with his previous band mates.

The well known Richie Kotzen has recently formed a new band called Forty Deuce. Richie takes care of the vocals and the guitars in the band and theyhave recently released their debut album NOTHING TO LOSE. I hooked up with Richie and asked him a few questions about Forty Deuce and also a few other things. And here is what he had to say enjoy for all fans of this guitar god.

Interview by Arto Lehtinen

The Estonian black thrashers impressed me with their raw and skilled stuff some time ago. I am entirely blown away by their  Celtic Frost influenced sound so the interview with them was more than obvious. I came across the band’s drummer Suss and agreed to do an interview with Must Missa to cover several details about the band. Their latest output is called TARGET OF HATE  and is a must own for every old school metal freak. After the interview there are a few mp3 files included… Enjoy
