\nEXODUS guitarist\/songwriter Gary Holt weighs in on the band\u2019s participation in the twentieth anniversary tour for MEGADETH\u2019s Rust In Peace – considered by many to be one of thrash metal\u2019s most influential albums \u2013 which launches in Spokane, Washington on March 1st:
\n
\n“I am so stoked to be a part of this tour with our long-time friends Megadeth and Testament! This will prove to be a thrash metal wet dream and I cannot wait to get the party started and hit the road on this beast of a tour! It’s been about six years since we last toured with Megadeth and after all these long years, this will be our first one with Testament, so I for one am fired up! Let the bloodbath begin!”
\n
\nThe forefathers of Bay Area thrash are winding down a North American tour with Arch Enemy, Arsis and Mutiny Within in support their new DVD, Shovel Headed Tour Machine: Live At Wacken And Other Assorted Atrocities. Video footage of their recent DVD premiere in Los Angeles can be viewed here.
