Bay Area thrash pioneers Exodus have dropped their new single “Promise You This,” accompanied by an official music video, as the final preview from their upcoming album Goliath (out March 20). Packed with ferocious riffs, high-octane energy, and blistering solos from guitar legend and primary songwriter Gary Holt, the track delivers the band’s signature intensity while showcasing Rob Dukes’ commanding return. After nearly 50 years shaping thrash metal, Exodus prove their supremacy remains untouchable.
Even over 40 years after their debut, Exodus are steadfast in their refusal to settle for the safety of mediocrity and continue to forge their trademark just as resolutely as they did in their fruition. The band’s highly anticipated 12th studio album is their most multifaceted offering so far, featuring several epic collaborations and marking the return of Rob Dukes as lead vocalist.

EXODUS said about “Promise You This”: “’Promise You This’ is one of our favorite songs on the new record, it’s just heavy as f**k but rocks just as hard. The song was inspired by some of the life lessons learned from my father and how long it took me to really listen.’’
Goliath was produced by Exodus themselves and mixed and mastered by Mark Lewis (Whitechapel, Nile, Undeath), delivering a sound that balances modern precision with the raw intensity that has defined the band since Bonded By Blood reshaped thrash metal in 1985.
