00:01:20 - What's that?

00:01:21 - I don't know if people want to see us.

00:01:24 - You know, I mean, first of all we love, you know, we love doing it, it's really a kind of a privilege to be, you know, 51 years old, and being able to go out, just still to have a void.

00:01:43 - Let me.

00:01:44 - Well, it's spelled differently than everything, it's called orgasmatron.

00:01:48 - Rod Helford.

00:01:49 - I think are useful just because of the fact that with what I try and do it's important to try and...

00:02:00 - Eric Clapton and Paul Stanley.

00:02:02 - But piano was inconceivable I mean you can't you can't just buy a piano or his guitar is much more accessible. I think I was very driven period it was to compensate to make myself feel more worthy.

00:02:17 - Exodus is an American thrash metal band, formed in 1979 in the San Francisco Bay Area, California.

by Kirk Hammett, current Metallica guitarist Tim Agnello, as second guitar later replaced by Gary Holt, bassist Carlton Nelson, later replaced by Jeff Andrews, and drummer.

00:02:54 - Vocalist Tom Hunting, later recruiting Paul Baloff as official vocalist.

00:03:04 - This song is part of their first album entitled Bonded by Blood, the band's founding album.

00:03:09 - And in 1985 and almost 40 years later, it is still valid in the metal environment.

00:03:16 - Let's remember that Metallica at that time had released Kill Em All, and this album has nothing to envy.

00:03:26 - Within an album in which almost all the songs are classics, I lean towards Piranha.

00:03:32 - At first, I thought the lyrics of the song were related to the 1978 Giudante movie of the same name.

00:03:37 - They are carnivorous fish that take the meat from the bone.

00:03:42 - This species of fish, and its way of feeding, was a good excuse to be turned into a thrash metal song.

00:03:48 - The lyrics represent the school of piranhas, like in a horror movie, almost an almost demonic entity unleashed on earth, from behind the gates of hell.

00:03:58 - The lyrics are a bit exaggerated, but it complements well with the musical style of the band.

00:04:04 - We must highlight the vocal delivery of Paul Balloff.

00:04:13 - He has a powerful, pounding entrance riff, very 80s, very much like Metallica from Kill

00:04:18 - Him All.

00:04:20 - The original album cover was an illustration of conjoined twin babies of good and evil.

00:04:26 - For the 1989 reissue, this cover was replaced with the band's logo in a red and black image of a crowd.

00:04:34 - The album was remastered and reissued by Century Media in 1999 in Europe only, featuring two live tracks from their 1989 combat re-release, with Steve Souza on vocals.

00:04:46 - This Century Media reissue restored the original twin cover.

00:04:51 - The recording engineer, the original album cover, was an illustration of conjoying twin babies of good and evil.

00:05:01 - For the 1989 reissue, this cover was replaced with the band's logo in a red and black image of a crowd.

00:05:09 - Recording engineer John X. Volaitis tells us,

00:05:11 - I think that record is more than any other record that I've ever worked on.

00:05:17 - That one has had the most people who are like, dude, I fucking loved that album.

00:05:25 - It seems like it has been probably one of the most inspirational pieces of music that have ever worked on. And it was so much fun and had such great energy to it. Once I kind of lost touch with them, they definitely, they kind of just fell off my radar. I've always remembered like certain bits of those sessions. I really remember doing guitars with Rick in Gary and just being like, oh, god, this is fucking amazing.

00:06:00 - The history of rock and roll in classic rock saltine podcasts.

00:06:05 - Also, I make you listen to a nice report in the 80s to Gary Holt.

00:06:10 - The song is about piranhas, you know, they're really a little vicious friendly fish and it's something that we wanted to write about.

00:06:22 - In conclusion, every time you go to the beach this summer, make sure there are no piranhas like the ones described in the song before you swim.

00:06:52 - So I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm

00:07:22 - The jaws of the way of life brought up to waste mankind

00:07:27 - Low time packs his little children deadly every time

00:07:33 - Trapped in swath by kings of hell

00:07:36 - Don't ever let them out

00:07:39 - Breath you down when they escape

00:07:42 - You'll find a bloody bomb

00:07:45 - What a cow in the back of a road

00:07:48 - What a sign to attack your death

00:07:51 - If you think you can beat the school

00:07:54 - If you think you can love your school

00:08:10 - Games of hell

00:08:12 - Crack the double and they fall

00:08:16 - I'll wash a sweaty laundry

00:08:19 - Kill everything in town

00:08:22 - Their salvation is to kill

00:08:25 - Stuck up most of the flesh

00:08:28 - Repel your eyes, tear off your face

00:08:31 - And end up blazing down

00:08:34 - What a kill with a pack of rope

00:08:37 - What a sign to attach your gun

00:08:40 - If you think that they tell you school

00:08:43 - If you think that love you're a fool

00:08:49 - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
