Megadeth-Holy Wars...The Punishment Due

[AnamariaOcampo99]

i started with metal due to rebellion, knowing my mom hated it. then, i started becoming more widely knowledge with megadeth, metallica, iron maiden, judas priest, and then other types of rock like guns n roses, pink floyd, jimi hendrix, black sabbath, led zeppelin (i can literally sit here and name over a dozen more slayer, anthrax, misfits, dimondhead, slash....) now, i dont know how ignorant id be by now if i hadnt found this music to save my life

[AnamariaOcampo99]

what an awsome intro...MEGADETH RULESSS

[screamingismyair]

megadeth CAN make a difference... nuff said

[ghostwhiskey]

i know this is gonna shock to everyone so make sure youre sitting down and prepare yourself.Ok here goes,it is absolutely possible to be a fan of both megadeth and metallica. Let that sink in for awhile and then enjoy the freedom that this information affords you

[ashcarlyle]

Brother will kill brother,Spilling blood across the land.Killing for religion,something i don't understand.

[PrisonerofReality]

anyone else just have an eargasm at the vocals right after that first little solo?

[TheDianaJC]

@PrisonerofReality totally, that is my favorite verse

[therockking111]

went to there concert a few years ago, and i remember it plain as day :) this was the encore, it was the most thrashing, and bashing, and headbanging and moshing ive ever seen. i was literally 2 ft away from dave mustaine!!!!

[Moonlar1001]

megadeth are talented

[bodoque1214]

if justin bieber go to suicide i go to the cinema to buy 44444444 kg of popcorn

go metal

[warpig089]

@bodoque1214 ill buy 666 kg of popcorn

[therockking111]

@bodoque1214 quit mentioning his name.

[thejonathanisback]

for me as a jew from israel this song is importend and the hamas stop to fuck with israel cause we are helping them and they attact us!!!

[clash64]

this really cleared something up for i would play this song on guitar hero and i always thought "mercy killings" was "mexicans" no offense

[Tittiefucker420]

NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEY'LL TAKE MY BALLS AWAY!

LOL

[NDF211Gunner]

@Tittiefucker420 You should hear sweating bullets, the actual lyrics on it say "try to take its pulse but it sounds like try to take its balls... no joke

[Tittiefucker420]

@NDF211Gunner haha yup ]V[ EGADET ]-[ RULES!

[NDF211Gunner]

@Tittiefucker420 My mistake, "symphony of destruction" instead of sweating bullets

[skataaah]

how can you say only 'metal' is the best, when you 're a true music fan, you should at least try to appreciate any kind of good music, from reggae to hiphop, even classic, and ofcourse, metal,

[allrockiscool]

@skataaah classic RULES, lol betho mozart and bach :D ok all rock RULES, i dont know some much about hip - hop but it rules, bob marley rules and metal rules, personally i think that the unic genre that doesnt rules is the reggueton and "vallenato" [?] (im spanish speakers forget my mistakes please)

[999storm999]

Dressed in military surplus, hair down to my fuckin ass,black band tees and grungy ripped up jeans (and I made the rips, fuck paying for that shit) I am the only non-scene metalhead at my whole goddamn school.

[Xankagerz]

wow what a lyric finnaly a song wich is realistic , and not that shet rap/hiphop about a load of money and drugs

[skataaah]

@Xankagerz try not to judge hiphop based on the shit you see on mtv..

[cooliovasquez]

NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEYLL TAKE MY THOUGHTS AWAAAy

[theotherstevo]

i saw the guys preform this song at the no sleep til perth wa yeahhh u guys rockkk

[joel7381]

Great song! Thanks to those who posted the meaning/theme of the lyrics.

[Toker420Tk]

rap needs to get a humilliating kick in the vagina!!

[zohasreturned]

4:43 - 5:45, right before the solo - onward is amazing!

[TheSlipknotDk]

One of the best metal songs to this very day...I especially love his voice in this song.

[MyGuitarAndSatan]

the 1 dislike must be Justin Bieber

[GREEKNICK13]

next thing you know

they'll take my thoughts awaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!!!!!

[LaneTheSlain]

I hope they play this when I go to see them in october. xD

[s1r0tt]

@LaneTheSlain they will they ALWAYS play this live lol

[Yoshiling]

@LaneTheSlain Dunno if you've seen them yet this month, but yes, they will be playing the entire Rust in Peace album.

[LaneTheSlain]

@Yoshiling xD I saw them on the first. They opened with Holy Wars. It was a great concert.

[Yoshiling]

@LaneTheSlain The only band at the show I was really familiar with was Slayer. I probably new 3 songs from Megadeth, but they put on such an incredible show (same with Anthrax) that I'm a fan for life now.

[LaneTheSlain]

@Yoshiling I missed Anthrax but Megadeth and Slayer were realy great. It was a good show for my first metal show. xD

[LaneTheSlain]

@Yoshiling Why do I keep using the same face over and over again?

[paraglidermx]

By far one of the hardest songs to play on guitar of all time. Dave is THE KING OF THRASH!!!!!!

[jorgeconio1]

METAL UP YOUR ASS!! \m/

[Lenin2304]

Megadeth = best thrash metal band ever

Rust in Peace = best thrash metal album ever

Holy wars = best thrash metal song ever

[m4headshot]

best song from megadeth

best song of thrash metal..

[Ltlegendary]

@m4headshot better than metallica,

metallica feels stupid for letting dave go

[roccoSH5]

@Ltlegendary you dont know anything about metallica

[Ltlegendary]

@roccoSH5 i know they are sell outs, i know they shouldnt be part of the big four, i know lars is a douche, i know death magnetic BLOWS donkey sack, i know they will never make a thrash album ever again like kill em all or rtl, i know snm is a stupid idea for an album...

anything else?

[FabioDaButterMan]

@Ltlegendary

If Metallica never let Dave go,we wouldn't have Megadeth.



[CYBERJASE]

when Dave was writting these lyrics,about Jihad,it was the "first" Iraq invasion,how prophetic...

[UKLegendUK]

@CYBERJASE It isn't about Jihad... I figured this out before I read his biography, it's about the Catholic/Protestant conflicts in Ireland... Then I read his bio and turns out that I was right...

[narutoguy56]

METALLICA AND MEGADETH FTW \m/

[ItamarZ13]

wait, israel IS my homeland!

at least we dont make any holy wars...

[s1r0tt]

@ItamarZ13 well at least we can WIN the wars we start

[MeltedDeath]

@ItamarZ13 No, everyone just decides Israel is so kewl or so un kewl.

Richard: MMM I THINK ISRAEL ARE KEWL COS JESUS LIVED THERE.

*Many fuckin crusades later* Mkay maybe not

NOW,

Every nation around Israel: GRRR ISRAEL IS FAIL

Israel: Son you fuck with us we got kewl stuff and kewl kids with us.

[Disturbed1NickB]

Fucking intense song.

[x7black7x]

that day will come on 2012 because scientists say that the earth will break i think it will break because of headbanging \m/

[sheerownage]

yo megaawesomo, its dec21 2012 noob

[CJayy510]

"Upon my podium, as the

Know it all scholar

Down in my seat of judgement

Gavel's bang, uphold the law

Up on my soapbox, a leader

Out to change the world

Down in my pulpit as the holier

Than-thou-could-be-messenger of God"

This Is A Amzing Set Heavy Metal Lyrics.

[danikirk1]

Marty friedman!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah!!!!

[megawesomo]

I can imagine the heavens playing this legendary track to the world on 12/20/2012

[thepimpinest]

Ha ha dude that's my 21st birthday!!!

[gorion79]

this is the anthem to atheism..nah jk, but what a great tune,actually makes lot of good point WHY WOULD YOU KILL for religion, something I don't understand either Dave...

[rodcrippler]

the sound in here is so ass-kicking full!!!

[tsykiou]

The lyrics are so fucking sic. My friend plays this shit after school. Good Headbanging too.

[josec7828212324]

someday metal\rock (maybe the old stuff aswell) will rise. rap and hip hop will be ruined when that day comes

;)

[bill01234]

I can't wait for that day.

[metalthrasher95]

i hope tht dayy comes soon though

[HaloIsForScrubzzz]

@bill01234 same

[MrEddiethehead]

@josec7828212324 yea that will be a great day

[DerekSkatesAllDay]

@josec7828212324 Why would you WANT metal,especially thrash,to become mainstream?One of the many reasons I love metal is because it has a dedicated and loyal audience who listen to it because they love it with a passion.(IMO)

[JasonGH313]

@DerekSkatesAllDay I don't think he wants that either but I think he's trying to say that he wants people to listen to real music like rock/metal(thrash,Heavy,etc.),­because music like this has messages about life,instead of tales of bitches and hos.(IMO)

[ya0munn]

@JasonGH313

i noticed that too.

Thats exactly what happened with almost everything, like movies.

Rambo only made out once in FOUR movies.

but who knows what he'll do in the expendables....

[ghostwhiskey]

@DerekSkatesAllDay thats not an opinion thats a fact

[JasonGH313]

@josec7828212324 Sir. I salute your dream :')

[SlabyJay]

@josec7828212324 When that day comes the bieber fag will suffer the most out of all of them

[junkyard31909]

@josec7828212324 sadly i believe that the day your talking of may never come at least not in our time. people are to ignorant to see all the talent and sheer awesomeness of this genre. but i hope and pray that it does.

[chickenfetusnarr]

@josec7828212324 not all rap's bad. just like not all metal's good. the good metal heavily out weighs the amount of good rap though.

[HaloIsForScrubzzz]

@josec7828212324 hopefully bro

[Guitar666shreddeR]

@josec7828212324 that day has come, those days i should say, they were the 80's when music was good without rap hip hop, pop, and scene emo kids, im only 15 but i am a traditional metalhead with a denim jacket with sew patches skin tight jeans and white high tops the lot, i love it, people need to keep this going, but the good metal, like iron maiden, slayer, megadeth, anthrax, metallica, pantera (rip dime) is all going to come back, cmon? airbourne have brought classic rock back? so cmon

[ghostwhiskey]

@Guitar666shreddeR rap was around back then too and pop has been around since like 1950,it just seems like it was better then but theres always been shit music. i think it was actually worse in the 1980s,none of the good music got much attention at the time. the shit on the radio was all debbie gibson,new kids on the block,terrible hair metal and a bunch of other crap music. it sucked being a little kid back then,they NEVER played metallica or megadeth on the radio even though they were huge

[alismouha]

@josec7828212324 I'm afraid the world is too stupid for that to happen,This is "The day that never comes"

[allrockiscool]

@josec7828212324 lol that is the day that still never comes...

[LyricsArFun]

@josec7828212324 I will be Saviour of Metal.

[ironmaidenrocks14]

@josec7828212324

I agree dude! :D



[megaluisdeth]

@josec7828212324 Metal and Rock did rise. Rock was all over the place in 60's-90's and pretty much still is. Metal rose from the 80's and went low in the 90's. Also the hip hop these days suck. Same with metal.

[metallicasoadslipkno]

@josec7828212324 think about it this way metal always rises over rap as long as we metalfans rise above rap fans which we do

[kmparado]

@josec7828212324 man I can live with rap and hip hop, I bet you've never listened to "reggaeton" now, that shit MUST disapear

[zshootar207]

@kmparado

I heard reggaeton every day for three months. Damn replacement Jamaican bus driver!!

[aquiringsignal1]

on that day, Megadeth will take over music and everyone will bow before them :D

[ghostwhiskey]

@josec7828212324 im not a fan of hip hop,at least nothing from the last 15 years,but i dont think it will ever die. wishing for any kind of music to die out is such a non-rock and roll thing to do. thats only my opinion though. there are many styles of music i despise but i would never try to take someone's music away just because i dont like it. think of how many people have tried to kill metal and failed. hating someone's music makes them like it more. thats what metal/rock is all about.

[zeos26]

@ghostwhiskey it is just a joke -.-

[ghostwhiskey]

@zeos26 damn,i wish i didnt write that paragraph then

[Lovedethklok]

@josec7828212324 ...dont worry ....metal is an element, it is forged in the womb of the earth and will never die, only be re birthed again and again. Spewed forth to conquer all in its wake :).................my daddy told me that

[0900072]

megadeth rocks

[pacoman559]

I really like Megadeth and Mettalica, but Iron Maiden is my favorite!

[joel7381]

@pacoman559 Mine too

[J0aNZa94]

[titifernandes1]

[TheAnhadArora]
