Silakan dengarkan kedua lagu di bawah ini, mana yang paling lo suka untuk lo vote dan lo jagokan sebagai Sang Juara Turnamen 32 Lagu Thrash Metal Klasik Internasional. Sangat direkomendasikan: dengarkan pakai Earphone atau Headphone untuk kenikmatan audio maksimal.
‘Holy Wars…The Punishment Due’ adalah lagu pembuka dari album Rust in Peace (1990, Capitol Records). Album studio keempat Megadeth yang masuk nominasi Best Metal Performance di Grammy Awards ke-33 tahun 1991, dan sekaligus debut performa rekaman bagi gitaris Marty Friedman dan dramer Nick Menza untuk melengkapi formasi yang sejak awal dihuni oleh sang komandan dan arsitek musik Dave Mustaine (vokal/gitar) dan David Ellefson (bass). Kritikus media maupun fans menobatkan Rust in Peace sebagai mahakarya terbaik Megadeth dan salah satu album heavy metal terbaik sepanjang masa.
Mungkin lagu kebangsaan Megadeth ini menjadi salah satu kandidat kuat Sang Juara.
Brother will kill brother
Spilling blood across the land
Killing for religion
Something I don’t understand
Fools like me, who cross the sea
And come to foreign lands
Ask the sheep, for their beliefs
Do you kill on God’s command?
A country that’s divided
Surely will not stand
My past erased, no more disgrace
No foolish naive stand
The end is near, it’s crystal clear
Part of the master plan
Don’t look now to Israel
It might be your homelands
Holy wars
Upon my podium, as the
Know it all scholar
Down in my seat of judgement
Gavel’s bang, uphold the law
Up on my soapbox, a leader
Out to change the world
Down in my pulpit as the holier
Than-thou-could-be-messenger of God
Wage the war on organized crime
Sneak attacks, repel down the rocks
Behind the lines
Some people risk to employ me
Some people live to destroy me
Either way they die. They die
They killed my wife and my baby,
With hopes to enslave me
First mistake… last mistake
Paid by the alliance, to slay all the giants
Next mistake… no more mistakes!
Fill the cracks in, with judicial granite
Because I don’t say it, don’t mean I ain’t
Thinkin’ it.
Next thing you know, they’ll take my thoughts away
I know what I said, now I must scream of the overdose
And the lack of mercy killers
Mercy killings, mercy killers
Killers killers killers
Next thing you know they’ll take my thoughts away
‘Indians’ adalah salah satu thrash anthem klasik dari album studio ketiga Anthrax, Among the Living (1987, Megaforce Records/Island Records). Lagu tentang diskriminasi rasial di tanah kelahiran sendiri ini juga dirilis single EP-nya sebelum album tersebut dirilis. Album terobosan pertama Anthrax bersertifikat gold dari RIAA dan hingga kini dianggap sebagai mahakarya terbaik Anthrax dan salah satu album heavy metal esensial sepanjang masa. Formasi band pentolan thrash dari scene New York City ini di rekaman album ini adalah Joey Belladonna (vokal), Scott Ian (gitar), Dan Spitz (gitar), Frank Bello (bass), dan Charlie Benante (dram).
Bukan karena Anthrax bagian dari “Big Four” sih, tetapi lagu ini memang layak masuk kandidat Sang Juara. Lagu kebangsaan di kala menggila dalam mosh pit, terutama di bagian War Dance! Brutal circle pit!
We all see in black and white
When it comes to someone else’s fight
No one ever gets involved
Apathy can never solve
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can’t fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We’re dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
Respect is something that you earn
Our Indian brothers’ getting burned
Original American
Turned into a second class citizen
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can’t fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We’re dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
Cry for the Indians, oh
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Oh cry, cry, cry for the Indians
Love the land and fellow man
Peace is what we strive to have
Some folks have none of this
Hatred and prejudice
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can’t fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We’re dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians
War dance!
Territory, it’s just the body of the nation
The people that inhabit it make its configuration
Prejudice, something we all can do without
The flag of many colors is what this land’s all about
We all see in black and white
When it comes to someone else’s fight
No one ever gets involved, no one
Apathy can never solve
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can’t fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We’re dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians
