Exodus are releasing a rerecorded version of their classic debut Bonded By Blood - the release date for Let There Be Blood is October 28, 2008 through Zaentz Records which has U.S. and European distribution.

Produced by Gary Holt, Let There Be Blood was recorded at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, CA, JKZ Production Studio in San Rafael, CA with vocal tracks recorded at J. Rod Production Studios in New City, NY. Andy Sneap mixed and mastered the album at Backstage Studios in Derbyshire, UK.

Says Holt: "After many years in the planning and discussion stage, we have finally completed the re-recording of Bonded By Blood. We have decided to call it, Let There Be Blood, and it is our way of paying homage to (original singer) Paul Baloff by showing how relevant these songs we had written together still are. We aren't trying to replace the original, that's impossible anyway. We are just giving these songs the benefit of modern production. It's something we talked about before Paul's death and it's always been important to us to do. We were super excited about entering the studio once again to record these classics, and now it's back to writing the next studio record!"

Exodus are part of KREATOR's upcoming Hordes OF Chaos North America Tour 2009, also featuring BELPHEGOR, WARBRINGER and EPICUREAN.
