Exodus played its first show with Dukes in eleven years at the Decibel Metal & Beer Fest in Philadelphia on April 5, 2025. They also played the UC Theatre in Berkeley on April 25, and at the House of Blues in Anaheim the next day. Both of those shows saw the band commemorate the 40th anniversary of the release of their debut album Bonded by Blood and also celebrated what would have been former singer Paul Baloff ‘s 65th birthday. Shortly thereafter, they embarked on a headlining U.S. tour, titled “Swarm of Horror”, with support from Havok and Misfire. A few days before those shows, Exodus released a cover version of Scorpions ‘ “He’s a Woman, She’s a Man” that included lead vocals by Mark Osegueda of Death Angel , making it the band’s first song in four decades not to feature any vocal contributions from either Souza or Dukes.
