"Holy Wars"

In all actuality the song begins with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and then briefly shifts to the Northern Ireland conflict before transferring to the Punisher story. --BlueGlowGuardian 03:07, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Holy Wars" was written about the N. Ireland conflict, not Israel

The link at the bottom of the page, where there's a demonstration of how to play the holy wars riff, who ever put it there has some issues. the guy playing the riff is making some serious mistakes in the opening riff, and in the subsequent main riff that follows. either put in another, more appropriate demonstration, or take it off entirely. PLEASE! LyTe 20:37, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The demonstration of 'Holy Wars' is just totally wrong, it's like the guy has never even heard the song!!! Also, the lyrics to 'Holy Wars' mention Israel: 'Don't look now to Israel, it might be your homeland'.

Vocals for Rust In Peace/Polaris

I picked up the remaster of Rust in Peace a few days ago, and I am seriously wondering if the vocals for "Rust In Peace...Polaris" are the original vocals or not. I knew beforehand about the issues with the other songs that Dave had to re-work, but when I listen to the remastered RIP/P, there are nuances to the enunciations and pacing that I don't remember hearing in the original release. Did Dave have to do some tinkering with this song as well as the others, or did the re-master do such a good job of cleaning up his vocal track that it makes it sound brand new?

I think I read somewhere that dave mentioned that when he came to the studio to remaster "rip", he found out that all the vocal tracks and some of the guitar tracks are gone, so he had to redo them all over again. hence the changes in pace and intonations. LyTe 20:51, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yeah

yeah i read somewhere in an interview that holy wars is about n ireland, the less obvious choice sort of. but anyway classic song

also if you want really detailed info about the making of this album , the remastered version from 2004 has tons of info. he says the name "rust in peace" came from a bumper sticker that he saw that said "may all your nuclear weapons rust in peace"

my other thing is, this sounds weird but maybe there could be like a list of 10 totally essential thrash metal cds. that would be a cool wiki page.
