Kirk Hammet sur le "Bonded by Blood" d'Exodus ?

Voici une rumeur à la con démentie mais amusante qui circule sur internet, où certains disent que l'un des bébés sur la pochette de cet album culte serait en fait une caricature de Kirk Hammet
Ce dernier ayant quitté Exodus pour Metallica quelques temps avant l'album.



Saby Reyes-Kulkarni of the Broward-Palm Beach New Times reports: EXODUS founder, leader, and mainstay Gary Holt laughs out loud at the suggestion that the album cover of the band's landmark 1985 debut, "Bonded by Blood", contains a veiled caricature reference to METALLICA guitarist Kirk Hammett. A familiar and cherished site to metalheads of a certain generation (read: You're getting old, bastards!), the album depicts a pair of Siamese twins joined at the back. One of the babies has a demonic smile and sports curly black locks that suspiciously resemble Hammett's '80s hairstyle. The demon baby's twin, meanwhile, is clearly born of a more, um... fair complexion.
"Oh no, that wasn't supposed to be Kirk," chuckles Holt. "But now that you mention it, it does share some similar ethnic traits. Maybe I'm the gringo, white-trash one on the right and Kirk's the other one — I don't know! That was completely unintentional.
"And," he adds, "why does he get to be the evil one?"
