The spider chord is a guitar technique popularized during the 80's thrash metal scene. Regarded as being re-popularized by Dave Mustaine of Megadeth, it is used to reduce string noise when playing (mostly chromatic) riffs which require chords across several strings.
The chord or technique is used in the songs "Wake Up Dead", "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" and "Ride the Lightning".

The two power chords may be played in succession without shifting, making it easier and quicker, and thus avoiding string noise. The normal fingering would be for both chords, requiring a simultaneous shift and string change. Note that the two power chords are a major third apart, if the first chord is the tonic the second is the minor submediant. The spider chord fingering also allows access to a major seventh chord without the third.
The spider chord requires the player to use all four fingers of the left hand, thus its name. This technique then allows you to run down the neck playing either of the two chords

Get the Spider Chord mug.Gay Spider is a name referring to the Hazbin Hotel character Angel Dust. It was first used in the official Hazbin Hotel soundtrack with a song that is named "We Have a Gay Spider", It was popularized by the video "Gay Spider Assad Meme" where he was also referred to as Haram Spider.
This has lead to many people denouncing the characters real name and just calling him Gay Spider, especially people who dislike Hazbin Hotel and think that Angel Dust is a stupid name.
The name's most common usage though is in the Assad Meme community, where a clip of a cringy fan animation of Hazbin Hotel will be played and then you will be cut off and told to STOP WATCHING GAY SPIDER! This trend started with the Syrian President Bashar Al-assad but people have started using other political figures and nations, real and fictional.
