Exodus
The late 40’s are a time for midlife crises, Corvettes, Botox investments and AARP newsletter subscriptions. But if you’re Gary Holt from Exodus, slowing down ain’t an option. Exhibit B: The Human Condition, Exodus’ ninth studio album, not only makes a statement in thrash metal, it defies many bands today to keep up.

SOiL
Imagine winning the lottery and losing it all almost as quickly as the numbers were called out. Most bands would have folded after losing the support and notoriety of being Clive Davis' rock band. Most bands would have changed their name after losing their founding vocalist. SOiL isnít most bands. Proof of it lies in their continued existence 13 years later as they embark on a new tour in March with Smile Empty Soul in support of their new album, Picture Perfect.

The Undeserving
Chances are you’ve heard The Undeserving before even if their name isn’t recognizable just yet. Hailing from Ohio, the group has made their name with numerous tracks that have appeared all over the small screen. Currently in the midst of a relentless tour across the states, the band has picked up the pace and shows no signs of slowing down. Chordstruck had the opportunity to share a brief email chat with members of this rising band, lead singer/piano/acoustic guitar player Clay Kirchenbauer and bassist Jimmie Getty of the fearsome foursome, and bounced back a few emails about their humble beginnings and where they’re headed now.
