Exodus filmed two videos on April 1st in Los Angeles with director Jon Schnepp (Metalocalypse) on the old set of the television sitcom Night Court.
States video director Jon Schnepp: "Exodus asked me to do a music video for their new album, so I listened to their powerful new album, Exhibit B: The Human Condition. and I ended up making two videos for them: ‘Hammer And Life’ and ‘Downfall’! Gary Holt and the band really dig my ideas. I think their music is incredible and they always give me 100% at the video shoot. Working with these legends of thrash metal again has been a blast!”
Exodus drummer Tom Hunting had this to say about the video shoot: “Jon Schnepp is the MAN! He brought a lot of fun to the day and didn’t want me to play muffled drums because he wanted the cymbals to shimmer like they do in a live performance. With me, I see a drum kit and I have to hit it! [laughter] So yeah, they were the real thing - my new Yamaha Oak Custom Kit with a silver sparkle fade. I love them!”
Bassist Jack Gibson shares: “I loved Night Court… one of the great t.v. show themes. I was playing that bass riff all day long! My girlfriend was in the video dressed in almost nothing! It's cool, she always wanted to be in a rock video. She actually worked it out with Jon by herself… I didn't even get the gig for her. We had a good time checking out the other sets there. The hospital, the office rooms, the houses. We even got it on in one of the jail cells!”
