On the latest episode of the Dabghanistan Podcast, Jack Gibson from Exodus discussed his formal musical training, what it’s like being a stoner metal legend in Nashville, the country music scene, recording tech, and the Bay Area thrash scene. He also talks about the status of the band's next studio album, which is currently in the works.
Gibson: "We're just starting to talk about the pre-production for the new Exodus stuff. It doesn't look like we're gonna be recording it until September maybe, and who the fuck knows when it's gonna come out? Everybody's records are on hold. There may be such a backlog of stuff by then. Who even knows? Gary's (Holt) putting 'em together right now. Gary always does that; he whips it together right before it's time to do business."
