More about 'Persona Non Grata'

Bay Area thrash legends Exodus return with their eleventh studio effort "Persona Non Grata", proving that after four decades in the game, they've still got the fire burning bright. This is classic Exodus through and through - razor-sharp riffs, pummeling rhythms, and Gary Holt's signature guitar work that helped define the thrash metal blueprint. The album opens with the title track that immediately sets the tone with its crushing groove and political commentary, while tracks like "R.E.M.F" and "Slipping Into Madness" showcase the band's ability to blend technical prowess with raw aggression.

The production on "Persona Non Grata" strikes that perfect balance between modern clarity and old-school grit, allowing every instrument to cut through the mix while maintaining that essential thrash metal punch. Steve "Zetro" Souza's vocals are as venomous as ever, delivering lyrics that tackle everything from social media culture in "Clickbait" to political divisiveness in "The Fires Of Division". The rhythm section of Jack Gibson and Tom Hunting provides an absolutely thunderous foundation, particularly evident on crushing tracks like "The Beatings Will Continue (Until Morale Improves)" and the album's epic closer "Antiseed".

For fans of: Testament, Overkill, Death Angel, and Kreator
