A Grim Reaper story. We were losing legends: Bowie, Cash, Petty, Prince, Frey\u2026the list goes on and on. Then we started losing family members and friends in our own orbit. Anyway, the title came first, then the poem, which became a song. I shared the lyrics with Gary, who helped inspire me with phrasing to finish it, and the guys loved it. The song is really long, and more legends kept passing right up into the moments Zet was singing it, so I had to keep writing until I had enough to complete the song. We hope you enjoy our tribute to the fallen!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pre-order your copy of&nbsp;<strong>PERSONA NON GRATA<\/strong>&nbsp;here:&nbsp;<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nuclearblast.us19.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=f52be22febdeb73950b267672&amp;id=a13544868a&amp;e=5725322eb0\">https:\/\/exodusattack.com\/site\/persona-non-grata<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pre-save the album digitally, here:\u00a0<br><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nuclearblast.us19.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=f52be22febdeb73950b267672&amp;id=aeb2b39545&amp;e=5725322eb0\">https:\/\/exodus.bfan.link\/persona-non-grata<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Literally translating to an &#8220;unwelcome&#8221; or &#8220;unacceptable&#8221; person, PERSONA NON GRATA touches on themes of modern societal disgust and degradation. The band gathered at Tom Hunting&#8217;s house in the mountains where they produced and recorded Persona Non Grata from three home-built studios . Steve Lagudi was at the helm of engineering while the band enlisted Andy Sneap of Backstage Studios to mix the album. For the third time in the band\u2019s history, they returned to Swedish artist Par Olofsson to create the album artwork.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With a bond forged in youth and decades-old friendship, the undisputed masters of thrash metal&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16105,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[1926,718],"class_list":["post-16104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-exodus","tag-thrash-metal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16104"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16104\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16106,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16104\/revisions\/16106"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16105"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
