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.

Throwing Down
Exodus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A sign of weakness
No more mouths to feed
Say what you will some hearts bleed
Stay away from me
Now my conscience feels no more
Hold my own from no one
No degree of guilt possessed
I can't deny anything
I'm sick and tired, I'm burnt
You can't rely on me
To be the one who saves you
I get off on negativity
Makes me laugh to see your strife
I won't succumb to your numb
I owe nothing to no one
Are you sick of me
I don't care
Never be a kiss ass
No degree of guilt possessed
Now I suppose that I am hated
I can't deny anything
I'm sick and tired, I'm burnt
You can't rely on me
To be the one who saves you
Feed me the blame like it's my fault
I'll put it back in your face with an assault
Crack in the back and I'll raise up
To crush mindless fools like you
Throwing down
The lyrics to the Exodus song "Throwing Down" convey a message of defiance and rebellion against societal expectations to forgive and forget. The opening line, "Forgive and forget, a sign of weakness," challenges the notion that forgiveness equates to weakness, and suggests that holding onto anger and negative feelings is a more powerful stance. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer cannot be relied upon to save anyone, expressing a sense of individualism and self-interest.
In the second verse, the lyrics take on a more aggressive tone, with the singer claiming to "get off on negativity" and finding humor in the struggles of others. The line "I owe nothing to no one" further underscores the rebellious, self-interested attitude of the singer.
The title "Throwing Down" suggests a willingness to engage in conflict and stand up for oneself, and the final line "to crush mindless fools like you" reinforces this aggressive mentality. In this way, the song can be seen as an anthem for individualism and self-empowerment in the face of societal pressure to conform and forgive.

@charlespockert8948
@@patchristian9174 the only problem I have with this album is the lyrics. They are just cheesy.
Not saying that other bands don't have cheesy lyrics, but these ones are extra cheesy and with zetros vocals it really puts a downer on it for me.
