Exodus: Persona Non Grata Ltd Pic

LP Record When you hear the phrase "blood bound," two things come to mind: a brotherhood forged to withstand the trials of war, pain, and time, and the almighty EXODUS. With a bond forged in youth and decades of friendship, the undisputed masters of thrash metal return with their eleventh studio album: "PERSONA NON GRATA". "PERSONA NON GRATA" literally means an "unwelcome" or "unacceptable" person, and it touches upon themes of modern societal marginalisation and degradation. "The people that disgust you – cut them out like a canker," explains guitarist Gary Holt. The underlying irony in many of these songs is the need for unity.
