EXODUS Release "Prescribing Horror" Lyric Video; Persona Non Grata Album Available Now
November 19, 2021, 3 years ago
Exodus have released their eleventh studio album, Persona Non Grata, via Nuclear Blast Records. The band have also released the lyric video for the track, "Prescribing Horror", which can be viewed below.
Gary Holt states, "As we have finally come to the day of Persona Non Grata’s release, something we’ve been eagerly awaiting for what seems like an eternity. We are pleased to share one last lyric video with you, my personal favorite song on the album, ‘Prescribing Horror’. A little tale of motherhood and a drug, and what happens when greed comes before life and safety. The story of Thalidomide.”
Literally translating to “an unwelcome” or “unacceptable” person, Persona Non Grata touches on themes of modern societal disgust and degradation. The band gathered at Tom Hunting's house in the mountains where they produced and recorded Persona Non Grata from three home-built studios . Steve Lagudi was at the helm of engineering while the band enlisted Andy Sneap of Backstage Studios to mix the album. For the third time in the band’s history, they returned to Swedish artist Par Olofsson to create the album artwork.
