The Metal Voice recently interviewed singer/ songwriter Dino Jelusick.
EXODUS have unleashed the colossal title track from their new album, Goliath, out March 20, 2026 via Napalm Records! Revealed today with an accompanying music video, “Goliath” simmers the tempo down with winding, malevolent leads, towering drums and ominous string work from violinist Katie Jacoby, coupled with intricate guitars by the legendary Gary Holt.

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. Secure your copy of Goliath now and check out the music video for the title track below!
EXODUS on “Goliath”:
"'Goliath' may quite possibly be the heaviest thing we have ever done, and certainly the slowest song in our catalog, as close to doom metal as Exodus we get! Just pure evil, as sinister as it gets, featuring our friend Katie Jacoby, who laid down 18 tracks of strings in the middle harmony section, making the song go from just pure horror to a thing of beauty."
Goliath wastes no time proving as massive as its name, with a sinister introduction opening “3111”. Ode to owning one’s own volatility “Hostis Humani Generis” features a palpable lyrical delivery from Rob Dukes that cuts like crystal amid frenetic riffs, before rolling into “The Changing Me”. The track’s introductory notes cascade into hair-raising rhythms, forming one of the band’s most anthemic offerings – blending menace and melody with the cleans of guest Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) together with Tom Hunting and at the end both Peter and Robb scream off the song. Harmonic dual axe acrobatics from resident guitar legends Gary Holt and Lee Altus. “Promise You This” incites mosh pit treachery with explosive energy, cyclonic riffs and turbocharged soloing from Holt and Altus. Tracks like “Beyond The Event Horizon” and “2 Minutes Hate” provide EXODUS’ trademark deadly dose of thrash theatricality – the latter boasting one of the album’s most grimacing, grooving pit primers – while undeniably 90s-tinged metallic charm attacks alongside drummer Tom Hunting and bassist Jack Gibson’s unmistakable rhythmic rage on tracks like “Violence Works”. The nearly eight-minute epic “Summon Of The God Unknown” turns the danger dial to max capacity, setting the stage with a wicked introductory passage before traversing a variegated passage of trudging riffs and heavy metal melody. Power packed closer “The Dirtiest Of The Dozen” wraps the album on a manic high, showcasing EXODUS pulling out all the stops on all instruments. Flurried dueling solos, an isolated bass excursion, rigorous drum dexterity and a blend of both gritty vocal passages and cutting chants combine to serve as yet another prime example of the band’s ever-evolving musical mastery.
Produced by EXODUS, mixed and mastered by Mark Lewis (Whitechapel, Nile, Undeath), Goliath beams with the explosive authenticity that has set EXODUS eons apart from their peers since the release of their debut, 1985’s groundbreaking thrash blueprint Bonded By Blood. 40 years later, EXODUS are steadfast in their refusal to settle for the safety of mediocrity, fearing nothing and no one and continuing to forge their trademark just as resolutely as they did in their fruition.
EXODUS on the new album Goliath:
“Are we excited for this record? That’s an understatement. We put everything we had into this record (and it’s 80 percent complete follow up, but we’ll save that conversation for another day!) and it’s one of our proudest accomplishments. Wildly collaborative, the most band centric album to date with four songs written by Lee, lyrics by Gary, Rob, Lee and Tom, and just killer all the way around. The time to let the monster loose is coming! Bow Down!”

Hi, my trip to Germany by myself turned out to be one of those experiences that you never forget. I traveled because I wanted clarity, fresh experiences, and some time apart from regular life, not only to see new locations. Support from the Lufthansa Airlines Office in Munich, Germany made me feel more prepared before I left because flying overseas alone felt foreign. My anxiety was greatly lessened by the staff's patient guidance on travel information and baggage specifics. I met kind strangers, strolled through lovely streets, and spent evenings thinking about life. In retrospect, I've learned that sometimes venturing into new locations by yourself is the best approach to discover who you are.

Hi, Our family will always treasure the memories of my grandparents' recent trip overseas. The trip felt especially significant because they were going to see my uncle and aunt after being apart for a long time. They were naturally anxious about handling flights and airport procedures because it had been a long time since they had traveled abroad. Support from the Royal Jordanian Office in Amsterdam, Netherlands made them feel a lot more prepared before they left. Before the trip, they felt reassured by the staff's patient responses to their questions on travel arrangements and baggage information. The joy and emotions on everyone's faces when they were eventually reunited with family overseas made the arduous trek entirely worthwhile.
I am passionate about learning modern technologies like DevOps. DevOps is a powerful approach that combines development and operations to improve collaboration, speed, and software quality. It focuses on automation, continuous integration, continuous delivery, and monitoring throughout the development lifecycle. Learning through a DevOps Training in Kochi helps professionals understand the tools, processes, and best practices required to build, test, and deploy reliable applications efficiently.
