Video: EXODUS's TOM HUNTING And JACK GIBSON Jam At YAMAHA Studios

June 27, 2015

EXODUS drummer Tom Hunting and bassist Jack Gibson stopped by the Yamaha studio during the band's recent European tour and took part in a spontaneous jam. Jack played his custom-finished Yamaha BB Bass and Tom performed with his characteristic double bass set-up with a Yamaha Live Custom in "Emerald Shadow Sunburst" finish. Check out the footage below.

Specifications: 22" x 18" Bass Drums, 10" x 7" Tom Tom, 12" x 8" Tom Tom, 13" x 9" Tom Tom, 16" x 15" Floor Tom, 18" x 16" Floor Tom, 14" x 6.5" Maple Snare, Yamaha FP9500C pedals, HS1200T Hihat, and all Yamaha 800 series hardware.

Guitarist Gary Holt was unable to join his EXODUS bandmates during the European tour due to his commitments with SLAYER. Replacing him on the trek was HEATHEN's Kragen Lum.

EXODUS and TESTAMENT recently joined forces for the "Dark Roots Of Thrash II" tour. The trek conquered North America for five weeks, beginning April 1 in San Francisco, and included select TESTAMENT and EXODUS festival performances. Support on the tour came from Texas melodic metal assailants SHATTERED SUN.

EXODUS's latest album, "Blood In Blood Out", sold around 8,800 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 38 on The Billboard 200 chart. Released in North America on October 14, 2014 via Nuclear Blast, the CD art was illustrated by Swedish artist Pär Olofsson, known worldwide for his incredible renderings that have graced the covers of countless heavy metal albums, including EXODUS' "Let There Be Blood".

"Blood In Blood Out" is EXODUS' first album since the departure of the band's lead singer of nine years, Rob Dukes, and the return of his predecessor, Steve "Zetro" Souza, who previously fronted EXODUS from 1986 to 1993 and from 2002 to 2004.
