Frontman Steve “Zetro” Souza and Exodus parted ways in January 2025

Frontman Steve “Zetro” Souza and Exodus parted ways in January 2025, and the band replaced him with his predecessor Rob Dukes, stating: “We are beyond stoked to have Rob back ripping up the stage with us and he’s looking forward to crushing everything like only he can.” Exodus also announced its plans to record a new album with Dukes. Souza revealed that he was “let go” from the band, which was later confirmed by Exodus themselves. Holt compared Zetro’s departure to a marriage that was over, and on his Toxic Vault webcast, Zetro agreed, saying “it was probably the right thing for me, and I hope it’s the right thing for them as well.”
