Megadeth – Holy Wars…The Punishment Due (Official Video)
Video info
Band | Megadeth |
Date | 23/09/1990 |
Album | Rust in Peace |
Description | The song has an unusual structure: it opens with a fast thrash section, shifting after an acoustic bridge by Marty Friedman to a different, slower and heavier section called “The Punishment Due”, interspersed by two guitar solos played by Friedman, before speeding up again with a third and final solo played during this segment by Dave Mustaine. The lyrics deal with global religious conflict, particularly in Israel and Northern Ireland. |
