Most times he plays the lead/solo in...ANY song, when the lead is done it always feels like it was missing something, just leaves you hanging, like, wass that IT? Not many song leads he plays can you distinctively recognize what specific lead/song it is from.

Yep its random, it's just about as dumb as it gets in metal soloing. Melodically it sounds like he's got a few some scales and runs, and he's moving up and down the fretboard until it sounds about right, then he's remembering where to start.

Gary Holt's solos are just random string noodling. There is no familiar, recognizable lead that was written for any particular song. His leads have no direction, purpose or melody. They never start, fill or end with any particular fit for any song, like I said, just random string noodling. It's just, "aaaaand, GO!", Until he decides," ok, that's enough, that'll do for now" then joins back in with the other guitar to go back to the rhythm guitar parts. It's like, "was that even the right solo that goes in that song?".
