EXODUS Re-Signs With NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS

May 27, 2008

Taking a break from writing the band's follow-up to 2007's "The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit A" in his home in northern California, guitarist/songwriter Gary Holt shares the latest slab of good news from the EXODUS camp:

"Hey all, just kicking back at home for a bit before we head over to Europe late July, but I am pleased to announce that EXODUS have re-signed to Nuclear Blast! We have been working on this since last October and I am happy to say that we'll continue our relationship with the greatest label in metal for some time to come! It's good to be with a label that we can call home after so many different stops along our career and we are psyched to move even further into the future. There is no telling how heavy things can get!"

"The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit B" is due out later this year. Meanwhile, look for the EXODUS brand in the latest episode of the animated Cartoon Network "Adult Swim" program "Metalocalypse".

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 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).
