Metal Church is back with a brand new lineup and a brand new album, but does Dead to Rights live up to the hype? In this review, I break down everything you need to know about Exodus' 12th studio album, released April 10th, 2026. We cover the shocking new lineup featuring former Megadeth bassist David Ellefson, Vicious Rumors vocalist Brian Allen, and drummer Ken Mary of Fifth Angel and Flotsam and Jetsam, plus a full track-by-track breakdown and final score.
I've been following Metal Church since the classic era, so this one hits close to home. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering the band, this review covers it all, the good, the not so good, and whether this new chapter is worth your time.
