Fabulous Disaster is one of their best. Shovel headed Kill Machine isn't... though it has a few decent tracks (Deathamphetamine in particular) it's a rather shitty album overall.
Recomend me some music! thread

my only major influence to get SHKM is Rob's voice and Paul Bostaph (yes, I know he's done better albums). I've never heard a voice like that before so it got me interested.

Christ, if you want an album with Rob's vocals then just stick with Exhibit A. I really couldn't recommend SHKM... download Deathamphetamine and be done with it I say. You'd be wasting your money.
I bought it when it came out and couldn't fucking believe how mediocre it was.

Actually I have both Exhibit Albums. Both are great but I didn't like The Sun Is My Destroyer and AIWAISSB (???).

Ignore Keenan. Exhibit B is impossible to listen to in one sitting without killing yourself - such a massive disappointment considering that a few riffs and sections on that albums are excellent. But it's just too fucking long, rehashed and repetitive.

I like Exodus but the long songs bore me. Honestly, if it is over 4 minutes long I start to lose interest. I have noticed that Exodus runs out of good ideas after the first 4 or 5 songs on an album. The recently released Generation Kill album which has Rob Dukes on vocals also suffers from these same problems.

I don't really like there first album. I didnt give it many chances and should probably give it another listen.
I just like Steve Souza really. His voice is really wierd.

I've always said that Souza was the jewel in Exodus' crown. Baloff was a shockingly bad vocalist, but an immense character with colossal stage presence - Rob Dukes just comes across as a rather flat, generic shouty frontman who has to be 'metal'. He'd be much better suited in a band like Hatebreed or something. But that being said, he didn't do too bad when I saw the band in 2008... I just think Souza was better in nearly every way.
If anybody wants a good 'modern' Exodus album, get Tempo of the Damned. Fucking immense album, that is.

For once Thrasherdave and I actually agree about music. Tempo of the Damned is my favorite Exodus album after Bonded by Blood.

Will definitely check some of this out sometime this week, thanks for the list.

To be fair, Devin has never released anything that could be called genuinely bad. Start with those, then try everything else - I'd recommend Deconstruction, but it'd probably be too much for a Devy newbie to handle as an introductory album
