EXODUS: Last Show Of Tour
April 24, 2008EXODUS vocalist Rob Dukes has issued the following update from the band's current European tour:
"It was the last show of our last tour and it turned out to be a special night. AGNOSTIC FRONT was playing at the club next door to us so we (the bands) decided to join together and play one crazy show in a packed house.
"For me it was awesome I'm from New York and have been a fan of them since I was a kid. It was a little surreal.
For the most part, being the singer for EXODUS is still weird to me, and I remember buying the records and going to shows as a fan, but to be where I am is just fucking goofy to me sometimes.
"We had fun hanging out backstge and they are just really cool guys, I have seen them a bunch of times and got hang out with them last year at Graspop, but doing a show together was killer. I thought to myself, 'How cool would a tour of CLUTCH, EXODUS, AGNOSTIC FRONT, THE EXPLOITED, TSOL and 3 INCHES OF BLOOD be?' throw in Brian Posehn as MC and that's a tour I would like to see.
"I like the obscure tour with a mixture of music and fans better than just an all-night metal fest, but that's my personal belief."
EXODUS' video for the song "Riot Act" was directed by Jon Schnepp of "Metalocalypse" (on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim) for Schneppzone Inc. The clip, which made its TV debut in December on MTV2's "Headbanger's Ball", can be viewed below.
"Riot Act" comes off the group's new album, "The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit A", which sold 3,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release back in October 2007, according to Nielsen SoundScan. The CD was recorded at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, California with producer Andy Sneap (MEGADETH, MACHINE HEAD, NEVERMORE, ARCH ENEMY).
