Thrash Metal masters Exodus return with exciting news. The band today announces a new album, “British Disaster: The Battle of ’89 (Live At The Astoria)”. 35 years after recording it, the band decides to share this record with their fans. Recorded live at The Astoria in London in March '89, Exodus once again showed why they are one of the greatest Thrash Metal bands of all time. Riffs to headbang, very fast solos and an impressive atmosphere that will see the light of the world on May 31st.
To commemorate the announcement, the band released a visualizer for their new live single 'Fabulous Disaster (Live At The Astoria)'. The title track of their album, released in 1989, immediately gives a sample of the energy that this live record contains.
Recorded on March 8, 1989 at The Astoria, London, fans witnessed a night that went down in history and became legendary among fans of the band and of Thrash Metal in general. Exodus had just released their third studio album, “Fabulous Disaster” and had begun a five-month tour to promote it. During this tour, the band decided to record their show in London, but they never released it. This record remained unheard in the band's trunks until now!
Gary Holt comments: “Sometimes something really cool comes right at you. In the case of Exodus, it was a multitrack recording of our show in London while we were touring in support of Fabulous Disaster. So we thought: 'let's listen to it and see what we have.' and BAM! It was amazing! A lot of 100% live thrash, and more dangerous than ever. We are so fucking excited to be able to release this album to everyone. Total chaos!
