Thrash metal band Exodus went a long way from home for "Low Rider", putting their take on War's 1975 funk hit onto Fabulous Disaster, their third album, in 1989. The song celebrates the cool of the lowrider, the Chicano custom of rebuilding classic cars on hydraulics, and stretches that image into a whole way of living.

Gary Holt, Rick Hunolt and Marc Senasac produced and mixed the Exodus version, and Senasac recorded it with David Plank. The writing credit still goes to the men who made the original: War's Papa Dee Allen, Harold Brown, B.B. Dickerson, Lonnie Jordan, Charles Miller, Lee Oskar and Howard E. Scott, along with record producer Jerry Goldstein.
