Things learned in this video: The beginnings of Kirk Hammett before Metallica The beginnings of John Tempesta before Rob Zombie (he joined Testament briefly after Exodus disbanded) Gary Holt has been the longest-standing member in Exodus Btw, RIP Paul Baloff (1960-2002) And wishing Tom Hunting good luck with his treatment.
He was such a character! We opened a show for Exodus in '94 when he rejoined the band and hung out in our practice studio around the corner with us drinking beer late into the night after the show. He even sang a bit to a few of our tunes. Never a dull moment that night.
I've been following Exodus since I was 13, now I'm 46. Their story is sad and troubled but for me it remains the best band on the world metal scene. I hope they can continue to make us mosh at their concerts and conceive epic albums for a long time to come! Go Exodus
I remember listening to "Bonded" when it came out, and thought that LP smokes anyone else at the time, including "Master of Puppets". And it just got better from there. The saddest point was when my old Metal band Descent, opened for Exodus in 1994 and only 30 people showed up for the show in Santa Barbara, CA. It deflated my drive to play Thrash big-time.... Long live Exodus!
That's metal, that happens. It sucks, but you just work through it. At least you know the 30 that showed up were hardcore heads, and worthy of a good show. Playing death metal Keeps the ego in check, I've played shows in front of 1000, and in front of 5. Lol. Take care brother.
@@RyansShack I remember reading they formed around 1980 as well. It just took them longer like Exodus to secure a deal and come with their first release 🤘🏾
Well, Tom Hunting's still in the band today after he returned in 2007, and there are bands like Judas Priest, Sepultura, Opeth, and Napalm Death on this channel that don't have original members (Trivium probably counts too since Matt Heafy joined shortly after its formation).
Dukes was actually a pretty powerful vocalist, but I'd always been a fan of Zetro. I was lucky enough to see them live in 2001 with Paul. That was certainly awesome and then in 2002 I saw them again with Zetro on W:O:A. Possibly one of my favorite all time gigs. Also - one member that I probably miss the most in Exodus is Rick. His solos combined with Gary's were so so special. All together I think I've seen Exodus live about 7 times from 2001 to 2011. [maybe even more] I've talked to Gary twice before the gig in 2004 and after the gig in 2005. He's awesome.
I remember at the Atrocity Exhibition, Gary (or someone) saying that just before Rob Dukes there was a given time with Steev Esquivel (from Skinlab) singing with Exodus .. Just before Rob Dukes. Anyway, this video is awesome. 🤘💀🤘 .
@@Miist3rDuce1 No way. I'm not a new fan either, I've been a fan for a LONG time. Shovelheaded Kill Machine through Exhibit B- The Human Condition was the heaviest Exodus EVER was. Rob Dukes kills on those albums. Vocally he sounds like a guy that could beat a infant to death with a claw hammer. I refer to the Dukes era Exodus as the "violent era exodus". Baloff was the personification of metal by his "attitude", he really lived it, but he wasn't really all that great as a vocalist. Hell he had difficulties keeping time too, Holt and Hunolt would have to babysit him on stage to make sure he wouldn't miss his cues.
0:42 Who's the man with the acoustic guitar and the guy after him? Edit: The acoustic guitar guy is Mike Maung and the guy after him is Evan McCaskey. Edit 2: But who is the drummer at 1:31 before John Tempesta? Edit 3: Perry Strickland. Thanks Wiki Edit 4: Unfortunately in 1989, Evan McCaskey committed suicide at 24.
Rob duke voice is average similar to melodic death or nu-metal market not bad and fit for band but Zetro is the original member which mark the successful of the band.
This is the list of bands for Evolution of 8 Bands #4 so far: 1. Sepultura 2. Darkthrone 3. Exodus 4. ??? (Might be Rainbow) 5. ??? (Might be Deep Purple) 6. ??? 7. ??? 8. ???
I wonder if he’ll do Evolution of five great vocalists. Here’s the list: Serj Tankian Dead Maybe Varg Vikernes Chuck schuldiner Paul dianno maybe Quorthon Fenriz And Max Cavalera
4:02 That's the exact morph of Gary Holt that Ale Yanok used in his morph video tutorial in his Part 2 of his 10k special. I strongly recommend everyone check out the video in case you guys wanna make your own videos.
It’s interesting to know that Gary Holt is the only member of the band to be on every single album

I agree
Can someone make the Evolution of Flotsam & Jetsam? Especially to support their New Album "Blood th the water"
@@MaJJackazz ah yes, Jason Newsted's first band
@@MaJJackazz IDK about that because it's not on Ale's band list
and a founding member was african american
Paul Baloff kinda looks like Bon Scott while Zetro sounds kinda like him

@@ianrotten4453 Awesome \m/
He also looks like Scott ian
I'm a huge fan of some of the early albums with Souza, but I miss Dukes. He brought something to the band that Exodus desperately needed.
Definitely. More rage, less wacky.
I miss Baloff and Dukes.
He brought that modern screamo sound that is in mainstream metal now. Definitely revitalized Exodus a lot
I've been following Exodus since I was 13, now I'm 46.
Their story is sad and troubled but for me it remains the best band on the world metal scene. I hope they can continue to make us mosh at their concerts and conceive epic albums for a long time to come!
Go Exodus
4:07 Lee is shocked when he found out Rob's leaving the band

Wait a minute, Exodus was formed in 1979, and Metallica was formed in 1981. Does this mean Exodus was the first Thrash Metal Band?!!
YES \m/!!!
Not really. Their first demo was in 1982 and before that they did covers and a couple of NWOBHM-influenced songs.
Technically maybe them and Ovetkill
I think so! 🤘
@@RyansShack I remember reading they formed around 1980 as well. It just took them longer like Exodus to secure a deal and come with their first release 🤘🏾
Although Tom Hunting wasn't a constant member, he was the only original member who's there the most.
2:10 The last original member returns
3:14 And returns again
I thought Tom Hunting was the only original member
@@edmcbain71 he has returned since 2007
@@edmcbain71 He is!
For a band with an album called “Blood in Blood Out” they sure had a hell of a lot of people come and go lol
I think Rob Dukes put Exodus at its peak and made the band even more brutal
Not many things terrify me, but Gary holt at 2:09
It will haunt my dreams forever
This photo dont scape of my mind 🤯
1:46 It seems like the Butler family really loves bass
THIS IS CRAZY!!!!
I NEVER HEARD ABOUT A BAND STILL EXISTED WITH NONE OF THE ORIGINAL BAND MEMBER!
THANKS FOR MAKING THE VIDEO

Dukes was the best vocalist they ever had.
The transition from Strike of the Beast to A Lesson In Violence in the soundtrack was so perfect :D
A lesson in violence to bonded by blood was cool too
One of the 3 thrash metal bands I saw live a week ago. The other 2 are Testament and Death Angel
Did you like Violence?
3:47 "Good Night" Rob Duke's last words in this video before leaving
Thank U , I'm learning all the history I didn't know 👍👍👍
I Also lerning thanks Ale 👏🏽❤️🤘

.
I saw the Steev Exodus when they opened for Megadeth back in '05.
Thank you very much really thank you I have been waiting for this video for a long time.🤘🤘😀
I appreciate this video I didn't know so many people were in this band Listen to them from '85 to '92 Now I'm back listening to all the new stuff.
Shovel was siiick! I didn’t realize Bostaph did that one. 🤘
Thanks for your work into this!
Paul Bostaph was also here from Slayer
Rob Dukes was the best vocalist Exodus could ask for.
No it was paul baloff, the 1980s was the best decade for exodus

Well me it's been nice talking to myself
@@Sean-fv4wi credit to dementia
@@Sean-fv4wi Vinnie?
Rob Dukes was the best era ever!!
I bought Bonded by Blood when it came out in the 80s and loved it. Still do.
When Zetro left on the Tempo of the damned tour i belive Steev Esquivel from Defiance filled in on some shows
YES!! NEW UPLOAD!!! I already know Kirk Hammett's here. From Metallica
My dear child, this is amazing content. ❤️
2:07
Rick: OH MY GOD IT'S SHORT HAIR GARY
JKJKJKJKJK
0:40 Nicko McBrain
0:28 But he couldn't teach the notes in between
Six degrees of separation: after Paul left he briefly joined Lee's band Heathen.
Hell yeah! A new upload.
IKR
@@WhoisVinnie I’m excited to be here for the summer. Cause last year he was uploading daily, and I wasn’t subscribed so I didn’t see his videos.
We needed thus
Pretty cool, Mr.Yanok.
Rip evan mccaskey 1965-1989
Rip Paul Baloff 1960-2002
My favorite thrash band along with Razor. Every era has its own killer sound, but I really really love Dukes era...
NICE GREAT channel
Thanks man....a lesson of history.....ready for the exam \m/
2:33
Rick: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My favorite version of exodus is :
-rob dukes/ zetro
-Gary holt
-lee atlus
-jack gibson
-Tom hunting
I preferred Rob Dukes vocals
Wow! A lot of exiting in Exodus!
Just saw them again last night in Sacramento. They kick my ass and cleansed my soul again! Exodus Attack!
1:30 🎵 And Then There Were None 🎵
1:29 The last original member
Its ironic how the guy who…basically invented the band never actually recorded anything (outside guest appearances )
Ikr lol. Kirk did a couple demos with them and that's basically it
@@RyansShack and SOME guest appearances
@@JudasAngel666 yes, he did have some guest appearances at least which is pretty cool
@@RyansShack well and TECHNICALLY he wrote a few songs that tge band used(similar to dave mustaine in metallica)
@@JudasAngel666 indeed. I know he wrote die by his hand and then later on that turned into creeping death. Not sure if there were any others?
Nice!!
Dukes..best vocalist.My favorite.
Yeah, he makes Exodus sounds more heavier
Awesome!
Is there a Megadeth evolution? I wondered if you could get it under an hour.
There is
Such a good work dude... I wish hunting the best. Also... Dukes has been a hell of a vocalist, the guy should have stayed
Rob Dukes is amazing, imo Exodus should of just kept him and moved on from Zetro
Rob duke voice is average similar to melodic death or nu-metal market not bad and fit for band but Zetro is the original member which mark the successful of the band.
I got introduced to Exodus after seeing Dukes commanding the wall of death in a video. Excellent vocalist. Wish he stayed.
He didn't have a say. He was fired.
Exodus should have kept Dukes. I liked Zetro back in the day but now he sounds like Donald Duck.
Seen them in Rooftops in Glasgow in the 80's ...the best thrash band in the world hands down. I've seen most of them and non came close to Exodus
ya buddy.
I grew up mid/late 80's S.F. Southbay
they were the rulers of the scene. Testament, Death Angel, Forbidden and Violence
@@gnoseologist good times😆
@@gnoseologist How about Overkill, Nuclear Assault, Voivod, And Death? Heavy bands all.
@@JHRUSMC yes, but not S.F. Bay Area where I am - I saw Testament Violence and Forbidden more than any other band. Suicidal is right up there
@@gnoseologist Right on. I was into Suicidal T's, right from their early days.
Been a fan since Bonded By Blood

I got to see Exodus with Paul Balof at Bogart's in Cincinnati Ohio. That was the only time I got to see them live in concert.
That was in 97 yes ?
I love the new single they dropped today!!
Best Thrash Metal Band of All Times.
4:02 That's the exact morph of Gary Holt that Ale Yanok used in his morph video tutorial in his Part 2 of his 10k special. I strongly recommend everyone check out the video in case you guys wanna make your own videos.
I know right. I had no idea until then.
Carlton was still there when Gary Holt joined
Thanks
My favorite band
Exactly my friend
3:27 Everyone except Lee Altus is wearing sunglasses
2:31 I almost didn't see that coming
Zetro joins from Testament
2:00
Gary: Hey baby how ya doin'
That’s probably what he actually said in that moment
Was Mike Maung (Guy with acoustic guitar) actually in the band? Or did wiki say so?
Yes he was. the guy pictured is him, just not in 1983
kewl
i have seen them Live on the Fabulous Disaster tour ;-)
What ever became of Rob McKillup?
Seeing Gary Holt with short hair is kinda creepy tbh
Keith Stawart, Tim Agnello And Kirk Hammet Left The Band In 1980.
Whaaaat, kirk hammett used to be gary holt's guitar teacher?
gold 1980 ... slayer, exodus Metallica, sepultura, death, cannibal corpse, ...

1:57
Tempesta: OH WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT *Static*
💯
3:51 So this is how it looks like with 6 people with this template you used since Death
So Gary Holt joined Slayer and kept playing with Exodus..?..! .. ?? What?!
Gary Fuckin Holt, Monster of guitar

Whoever did the vocals on Nanking was my favorite
Rob Dukes.
Rock the hell on!!!
