Work on the Next Exodus Record Pushed Back a Bit

Bay Area thrashers Exodus have been signaling for a while now that they’ve got plans to record their follow up to 2021’s Persona Non Grata, but it’s looking like the wait might be a little bit longer. That’s because the band’s time in the studio has been pushed back just a smidge.
According to a video posted to Steve “Zetro” Souza‘s YouTube channel, Zetro’s Toxic Vault, the vocalist revealed that despite originally planning to be in the studio in March, the band’s had to push things back to May.
“We’re writing new Exodus right now and I think we were originally supposed to be in the studio… We were gonna be in March 1st, but we can’t just rush this stuff. It has to happen. So I think it’s more like in the mid-May that it’s going to happen now.
“We’re going down and doing five shows in South America. We’re doing Summer Breeze [festival] in Brazil, and there’s some stuff in Chile and in Ecuador and in — a couple more things in Brazil that we’re doing that will be kinda like right before we go in to do that. And then I believe Europe is the last week of July — around the 26th or the 27th of July to August 18th — so I don’t think it will be much stuff in there that’s going to collude that. But that’s where we are at right now with Exodus anyway.”
Even though it was originally revealed that they hoped to get the new album out by September 2024, it’s looking like that’s just not going to be the case. Either way, we’re pretty confident whatever comes out will be a thrash metal slammer, even though Zetro said he hasn’t heardh doesn’t know how the album’s going to sound.
“I haven’t heard anything that they’re writing. It usually starts with Tom [Hunting, drums] and Gary. So, it’ll be music and then drums. And then when they have kind of stuff pasted together, then I’ll hear bits and pieces of it. It kind of rolls like that, but within three or four weeks’ time, what sounds like just riffs put together actually turn into full songs, with lyrics and everything. Persona Non Grata went that way, for sure. And in the past we had done it like that. So that’s what’s actually happening as far as Exodus is concerned right now.”
So there ya have it. Gonna be a bit before Exodus can kick your face in with new tunes, but it’ll likely be worth the wait.
