Acerca de esta escucha

From prolific metal guitarist and songwriter for Exodus (and formerly Slayer) Gary Holt comes a deeply personal memoir of his "destruction-laden" life, along with a firsthand account of the genesis of the Thrash Metal scene, from its origins in the Bay Area to its world domination.

As the guitarist and primary songwriter of Exodus and one of the originators of heavy metal, Gary Holt watched as his peers—Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax—soared to superstardom. As his fellow artists amassed millions of fans and record sales, Exodus' albums received critical recognition and inspired generations of listeners—but struggled to reach the same heights of success, as the band was plagued by years of bad management, bad luck, and bad decisions.

A Fabulous Disaster follows our narrator through the highest of highs and lowest of lows as he and his bandmates juggle major label contracts, MTV-sponsored tours and festivals, growing addictions to alcohol and meth, and the loss of key founding members. Ultimately, after the tragic death of one of his closest friends and former bandmates—Holt decides to save himself. Newly sober and determined to resurrect his career, he commits himself to Exodus, pushing the band to new heights.

An "unadulterated odyssey through decades of insanity," punctuated by Holt's unique insight and knack for storytelling, A Fabulous Disaster is a thrill ride from start to finish. His story proves that redemption—even from the pits of rock 'n' roll excess—is always possible.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“One of the first people I met in San Francisco, and my oldest friend in metal, we truly are blood brothers. I’ve always thought Gary was one of the best guitarists of the five bands: the Big 4 and Exodus. Actually, I was surprised he could spell! Love ya, Gary.”—Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, author of Mustaine and Rust in Peace

A Fabulous Disaster is a harrowing, compelling and, hilarious read. Like Breaking Bad with riffs!"—Scott Ian of Anthrax, author of I’m the Man and Access All Areas
“What an amazing read. Gary has seen his share of the good, the bad, and the ugly in this business. And he’s one of the sweetest cats you’re ever gonna meet. Much Respect. Read on!”—Rex Brown of Pantera, author of Official Truth, 101 Proof
“Always savage, always inspiring, it was a great read. Couldn’t get off the shitter. Please send help.”—Jason Momoa, actor

Where Are They Now? They're Right Here.

A raw & unforgiving look into the life of Thrash Metal's premiere shredder. Brutal honesty, pulls no punches, no frills or fancy stuff, just pure, unadulterated metal stories.

Holt is a lovable maniac

I’m a fan of Exodus and big listener of thrash metal. Hearing Gary’s story was really fun and at times sad. He may be a crazy head banger, but he’s also got a soft side.

Love these type of bio’s

Great book and the narrator even kinda sounds like Gary Holt.
Well written and love these type of Bio’s because it really sets the record straight on things that have been said or done supposedly and gives the Fan a real true inside look into the life and career of their idols or musicians they enjoy or look up to.
