FROM EXODUS:
Today's the Day!
We
decided to go hard with the lead off single, '3111'. The song is about
the narco killings in Juarez, and '3111' is the estimated number of
murders for 2010 alone."
GOLIATH
“Are we excited for this record? That’s an understatement. We put everything we had into this record
(and it’s 80 percent complete follow up, but we’ll save that conversation for another day!) and it’s one
of
our proudest accomplishments. Wildly collaborative, the most band
centric album to date with four songs written by Lee, lyrics by Gary,
Rob, Lee and Tom, and just killer all the way around. The time to let
the monster loose is coming! Bow Down!”
Emerging
hungrier than ever in 2026, with Goliath, EXODUS reinforces their
eternal foothold at the top of thrash metal's hierarchy with 10 of their
most diverse, anthemic emissions to date. Further fueled by the widely
embraced return of iconic late-era frontman Rob Dukes – first appearing
on 2005’s Shovel HeadedKill Machine – the album boasts what the band
describes as the performance of his life. Goliath is EXODUS’ most
collaborative record in their four decade-plus history, featuring songs
written by several band members and guest contributions from Peter
Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) and violinist Katie Jacoby.
We can Finally Share Video for First Single, “3111” – Footage Was Too Brutal for YouTube!
12th Studio Album, Goliath, Releases March 20, 2026 via Napalm Records
Just last week, Bay Area thrash legends EXODUS announced their 12th studio album, Goliath. Their first album with singer Rob Dukes since 2010, the band’s Napalm Records debut, and the follow-up to their highest-charting record ever will be out March 20, 2026! Along with it, the band revealed the massive opening track “3111”—whose video couldn’t be released due to the footage being too brutal for YouTube.
Gary about the video :
“ So here it is, time to share the full, uncensored version of the video for 3111! If you put it in movie terminology, we have the PG, PG13, and with this one, the rate R version! With YouTube flagging what we consider the PG13 version repeatedly with threats of losing our page permanently, ( which to be honest contains nothing you can’t find on YT already) we decided to really push it and include all the scenes we KNEW they would not allow! So here’s the full video, with its own website to view! Enjoy!”
Set around the drug war in Mexico’s Ciudad Juárez, sinister “3111” is an intense song showcasing not only EXODUS’ ever-increasing dynamic approach, even decades into their historic reign, but also their willingness to go exactly where it hurts. Therefore, the band spared no effort to make the video accessible to fans. A censored version is now up on YouTube, while a new website has been set up to show the merciless brutality of “3111” in its true form: http://exodus3111.com/
EXODUS on “3111”:
“We decided to go hard with the leadoff single, ‘3111’. The song is about the narco killings in Juarez, and ‘3111’ is the estimated number of murders for 2010 alone.”
