Your Insanity will do. Your Insanity could help Iron Man Records to release more music…

Exodus - The original architects of the thrash metal scene. The Asylum Venue, 38-42 Hampton Street, B19 3LS Birmingham, United Kingdom EXODUS have battled every kind of adversity over the past 30 years and used it all as fuel to stoke their ever-raging fire. Short-lived trends, line-up shifts, label conflicts, even the death of founding vocalist Paul Baloff couldn’t stop the beast. And through it all, guitarist and songwriter Gary Holt has persevered with misanthropic indignation, rolling with the punches, reassembling the broken pieces and working with the eccentric personalities surrounding him to create some of the most trenchant, fast-paced, and unrelenting music that influenced everyone from Pantera to Lamb of…
