Guitarist Gary Holt of the veteran San Francisco Bay Area thrashers EXODUS has issued the following update:
"While anxiously awaiting our return to Europe for the festival run, we have been quietly working on the 'Bonded By Blood' [EXODUS's classic 1985 debut album] re-recording in our time off. Rob [Dukes, vocals] is currently doing vocals in New York, Lee [Altus, guitar] is doing his solos and I have some touch-ups to do on July 4th. Everything sounds crushing! Guitars are brutal, Tom's [Hunting] drumming is sick, Rob sounds heavier than ever. I am totally stoked. While working on this, I have been securing the talent for the 25th anniversary version of it, the Paul Baloff trubute. Nine different singers. Can't name names right now, but people have been more than willing to participate.
Wow! That is a really bad idea. I suppose it could be good, but somehow I doubt it can ever topple the nostalgia that album holds for most thrash fans.

Yeah definately and i don't see how it is in any way paying tribute to Paul. I see it as a new project to promote Rob Dukes. The other one with 9 different singers was a better choice but the re-recording will ruin the sentiment imo.
