Fabulous Disaster, the third studio album from Bay Area thrash crew Exodus, came out on January 30, 1989, through Music for Nations in the UK and Combat/Relativity in the US. For once the band held on to the lineup from the album before: Steve "Zetro" Souza on vocals, guitarist Gary Holt alongside Rick Hunolt, Rob McKillop and drummer Tom Hunting.
It's thrash with a grin on its face: razor-quick riffs, gang shouts, chugging breakdowns built for the pit, and Souza's sneering bark over the top. It's also one of only two Exodus albums with two cover songs on it, and "Low Rider" shows the band having a blast. The praise it drew caught the ear of major labels, and Exodus signed with Capitol later in 1989. It was Hunting's last release with the band until the 1997 live album Another Lesson in Violence.
