Exodus’ lineup remained stable for the recording of their next two

Exodus’ lineup remained stable for the recording of their next two albums, and the underground success attained with Bonded by Blood would lead to the group’s signing to Sony / Combat Records , who released the band’s second album Pleasures of the Flesh in October 1987. The album was engineered by a then-unknown Sylvia Massy , who would go on to produce two releases by progressive metal band Tool . Following the release of Pleasures of the Flesh , Exodus toured for less than a year to promote it. They embarked on a month-long U.S. tour with Celtic Frost and Anthrax . The band toured the U.S. dubbed the “Metal Party Tour” again in January and February 1988, this time with M.O.D. as a supporting act, which was followed three months later by a European tour with Lȧȧz Rockit .
