EXODUS Issue First New Studio Update - "This Is Gonna Be So Goddamned Heavy It Ain't Even Funny"
March 27, 2014, 10 years ago
San Francisco's veteran thrashers EXODUS have entered a studio in Northern California with producer Andy Sneap to record their tenth studio album.
Guitarist & songwriter Gary Holt has issued the following update: "We are well into drum tracks; everything is going super smooth and Tom [Hunting] is just killing it! Best drum sound this band has ever laid down - sounds just simply pummeling! Only one more song and some B-sides to go, then we go through things and make sure everything is up to par, and then time for guitars! Can't wait to add the crunch to these monsters. This is gonna be so goddamned heavy it ain't even funny! We couldn't be more stoked and pleased with how this record is coming along! Bludgeoning!"
Exodus performed at Kirk Von Hammett’s Fear FestEviL in San Francisco in early February. This May, they’ll play six shows as direct support to SLAYER with openers SUICIDAL TENDENCIES before joining GUNS N’ ROSES, AVENGED SEVENFOLD, and KID ROCK at this year’s Rock On The Range festival.
