Exodus - Forthcoming Album's Third Single Unveiled
One month prior the release of their eleventh studio album Persona Non Grata, the mighty Exodus present a lyric video for the third advance single "The Years Of Death And Dying". Check it out.
Drummer Tom Hunting comments, "The Years Of Death And Dying" started out as a poem, from the perspective of Death, being a thinking entity, always watching and looking for weakness and opportunity to come calling for people. A Grim Reaper story. We were losing legends: Bowie, Cash, Petty, Prince, Frey…the list goes on and on. Then we started losing family members and friends in our own orbit. Anyway, the title came first, then the poem, which became a song. I shared the lyrics with Gary, who helped inspire me with phrasing to finish it, and the guys loved it. The song is really long, and more legends kept passing right up into the moments Zet was singing it, so I had to keep writing until I had enough to complete the song. We hope you enjoy our tribute to the fallen!"
