That's called "galloping", one of the foundations and cornerstones of thrash metal genre. And in my opinion the most important part of it. I like the galloping riff in 1:14 - 1:24 a bit more tho.
@@denizekin1532Yeah but difficult to find a player that uses as much as does it as well as this guitarist lol he's incredible. I struggle finding other bands with this kinda playing and I'm a huge thrash fan
@@prieterico lowkey the other version is much more heavier this one just sounds more polished but both are equally great I enjoy switching between both like it was covered by a different band
Around the same time I heard this, I watched the movie Not Without My Daughter (1991) starring Sally Field. It put into perspective a lot of the things that were described in this song.
Neeh man, there are better bands than Artillery. They are not even in the best 4 Technical Thrash Metal bands (Coroner, Forbidden, Annihilator and Toxik). Sepultura is amazing but they are not pure Thrash Metal, more like Deathrash and Groove Metal
I mean i think that by inheritance belongs in the top 5 best thrash albums and it's my personal favourite album but artillerys discography as a whole isn't on the level of the big 4
I’m sorry but the lyrics of the song are just so bad. Iran wasn’t waging a holy war. It became a holy in the sense that it was a sacred duty to defend against an aggression by a US proxy (Iraq). Most Iraqis are Shiite, so Iran wasn’t waging a war against another Shiite nation just out of fanaticism.
I know about what is the lyrics, you idiot ... It's unconscious zionist propaganda. A misinterpretation of the Iranian regime. Khomeini was a great historical figure. Israel is the real cancer of the Middle East and of the world.
Speaking of Iran based on your decadent Western, "progressive" and lefist values is pathetic. Westernization and subservience to the US and England was destroying Iran... And now they are a much stronger and fair nation than it was before Khomeini. These lyrics are deplorable and stupid. I suggest you to study more history and to write less crap.
These riffs are just the f*cking quintessence of thrash metal.
most underrated and best thrash metal album of all time??.
Probably
Try Eruption - Tenses collide. I think you will like it
Defiled Purity Definitely one of the best!!
check holy terror you may change your mind
@@holyyy_diver Holy terror against Artillery ? hah this album destroys usa
Record: Most cool riffs per minute
Artillery is my Metallica. I just got home
From seeing them live. I have been hooked on them since 89.
one of the best metal songs ever..that's for sure!!!
concordo plenamente \m/
Agree
facts
You mean "one of the best thrash albums ever..that's for sure!!!"
@@sendnukes7810 of course! One of the best thrash metal album ever, if not the best one...
Sublime sorprendentemente straordinario grazie per averlo condiviso 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍🎸🥁💯 complimenti alla super band , prima classe assoluta 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
R.I.P. Morten Stützer. Only 57 years young X((
FOREVER
He once appeared
A harmless threat
A leader wrapped in linen.
United fools, bewitched by words,
In pact with ignorance.
A powermind, dictating thoughts,
that leads toward his dream
To free the world, fanatically
Religious slavery.
[Chorus]:
Khomaniac - your holy war is a tragedy
Fataliac - won't your God let you see
And lead by this, insane old man
From shah to battlefield
No one's too young, to fight and die
For what this man believes
[Pre-chorus]
Someone must die, insanity's alive
Spreads like disease, the virus increase
[Chorus]
[Bridge]:
A voice in my ear says - "Khomaniac"
Your killing is pointless - "Fataliac"
The war is eternal - "Khomaniac"
The outcome infernal
That voice in my ear says - "Khomaniac"
Your killing is pointless - "Fataliac"
The war is eternal - "Khomaniac"
The outcome infernal - So die
He once appeared
A harmless threat
A leader wrapped in linen.
United fools, bewitched by words,
In pact with ignorance.
A powermind, dictating thoughts,
that leads toward his dream
To free the world, fanatically
Religious slavery.
[Pre-chorus]
Someone must die, insanity's alive
Spreads like disease, the virus increase
[Chorus] x2
Wow, 1:09-1:14 is a perfectly rhythmic metal cacophony of awesomeness. Love that type of guitar playing ...

Best I've heard in thrash

@@Taylcn ehh i disagree. theres a lot of really technical parts of this song that just sound muddy as hell on the spotify version
Yeah this version is so much tighter a precise than the Spotify version.
Man the precision of the guitar playing...
Great riffs
This entire album is pure thrash gold! 🤘💀🤘
The opening riff...omg!
that fucking riff is incredible
Never even heard of these guys that’s why I love UA-cam!!
Amazing song by an underrated band.. Thx for HD
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

J'ai entendu cette chanson à la radio et du haut des mes 44a , j adhère cet album est un des meilleurs
A la radio ?? C'est quel type de radio lol
I'm seeing this guys tonight finally!
How was it?
@@bathedinblood7897 was great. Shame that there were just 30-40 people in the audience, including the opening band. New Zealand's metal scene sucks

This song is as addictive as crack.

I still have no clue what Khomaniac means.
Reference to ayatollah khomeini
Khomeini + maniac.
Clearly refers to the 1979 Iranian Islamic Revolution's leader. He changed the world.
Main riff sound similar to face the slayer
Is that the fucking bass guitar? 0:53??
Yes
Kinda good.
What is a "fataliac"?
fatal plus maniac
use dictionary
@@miracturan Alice In Hell is a cool album
Great thrash song! But actually I prefer the demo version. It's alot heavier and more raw.
2019?
2021?
