EXODUS - FUNERAL HYMNS

Any discussion of the history of thrash must include Exodus. They were among a handful of bands that were in the delivery room when thrash was born, and, despite a few ups and downs through the years, are still an important part of the extreme metal scene. Whether you are old school or new school, Exodus 101 is a lesson in violence.
