BraveWords.com Presents The Brave Picks Top 30 Of 2010 ... #18 Revealed!
December 14, 2010, 13 years ago
We continue to count down the finest slabs of metal from the last year, as chosen by the devout scribes here at BW&BK;/BraveWords.com. As with previous years, each writer was asked to pick his top 20 albums of the year (no live records, compilations or covers etc...). We perform a little behind-the-scenes metal math and voila, we have our list! We'll be counting down the Top 30 all month - yup, one a day until we get to New Year's - yes, we're aware that December has 31 daze but we thought we'd let you hang until January 1st!
It's time for #18! Drum roll please...
#18 - EXODUS - Exhibit B: The Human Condition (Nuclear Blast)
The brutal riffs just keep a comin' from these Bay Area legends who assaulted our senses once again with the punishing/Billboard Top 200 charting Exhibit B: The Human Condition, released last May and produced by Andy Sneap (MEGADETH, ARCH ENEMY, KREATOR).
Exodus teamed up once again with SchneppZone video director Jon Schnepp of Metalocalypse fame for the visually pummeling video for the song 'Downfall'. So pummeling, in fact, that you can hurt yourself! The band even issued the following warning: "Viewers who are epileptic or prone to seizures are asked not to view this video due to its strobing effect."
