1) an American thrash … Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with this name:
1) an American thrash metal band formed in 1979 in Richmond, California. Their current lineup consists of guitarists Gary Holt and Lee Altus, bassist Jack Gibson, drummer Tom Hunting, and lead vocalist Steve "Zetro" Souza. There are no original members left in Exodus other than Hunting, who has departed from the band twice, in 1989 and 2004, but rejoined in 2007. Exodus is also notable for its inclusion of guitarist Kirk Hammett in its initial lineup; he eventually left the band in 1983 to join Metallica as Dave Mustaine's replacement. Holt, who replaced original guitarist Tim Agnello in 1981, has been most consistent member throughout various lineup changes and break-ups, and is the only member to appear on all of Exodus' recordings. Much of the band's career has also been affected by bitter feuds between both band members and record companies, two extended hiatuses, deaths of former band members and internal problems often relating to drugs.
Since its formation, Exodus has released eleven studio albums, two live albums, one compilation album, and a re-recording of their first album. Along with Metallica, they are often credited as pioneers of the Bay Area thrash metal scene, and have been referred to as one of the region's so-called "big six" alongside Testament, Death Angel, Lååz Rockit, Forbidden and Vio-lence. Exodus have sold over five million albums worldwide, and they are also considered to be one of the "big eight" of thrash metal, along with Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, Overkill and Death Angel. The band had particular success in the mid-to-late 1980s with their first three studio albums: Bonded by Blood (1985), Pleasures of the Flesh (1987) and Fabulous Disaster (1989). The critical praise given to Fabulous Disaster garnered attention from major labels, including Capitol Records, with whom Exodus signed in 1989 and released two albums for the label: Impact Is Imminent (1990) and Force of Habit (1992). After a break up in 1993 and a short-lived reunion in 1997–1998, Exodus reunited once again in 2001, and since then, they have released six more studio albums, starting with and including Tempo of the Damned (2004), which reignited Exodus' popularity and is considered to be a key part in the early-to-mid-2000s thrash metal revival movement. The band's eleventh and latest studio album, Persona Non Grata, was released on November 19, 2021.

Deranged
Exodus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now I'm afraid to sleep from nightmares that I've had
I feel I'm on the edge, I need some kind of cure
Now I've gone and killed someone, I'm mentally disturbed!
[Chorus]
THey can't keep me locked away
My psychiatrist says I'm ok
But I know I'm really deranged!
Arrested for murder, my case comes to trial
Prosecution's accusing me of things sick and vile
I admit I'm guilty, but plead insanity
Six months at Bellevue, then I'm walking free
[Chorus]
They want to calm me so they feed me thorazine
It doesn't make me calmer, it only makes me mean
Now they let me loose, back in society
With some psychiatric help and a lobotomy
But I've got them fooled, I'm playing at their game
I'm more psycho than before, I don't even know my name
I know they should have killed me when they had the chance
But the system let me off with a little song and dance!
The lyrics of Exodus's song "Deranged" portray the mental instability of an individual who is struggling with voices inside their head. These voices are causing nightmares, which further lead the individual towards the brink of insanity. In an attempt to find a cure, the singer of the song ultimately ends up committing murder, leading to their arrest and eventual trial.
Despite being sentenced to six months at Bellevue and the administration of psychiatric help and a lobotomy, the singer remains unrepentant and continues to play games with the system. The song hints at the inefficacy of the psychiatric system in dealing with people with mental illnesses and suggests a flawed understanding of the disorder that leads to individuals with mental health issues being let back into society.
The lyrics of "Deranged" capture a sense of chaos and turmoil. The tension within the song is created by the disturbing details of the singer's mental state, which is further emphasized by the complex guitar riffs and thrashing drum beats. The song's overall aggressive tone, delivered through the lead singer's raw and guttural voice, adds to the overall sense of madness and insanity.
