New Era: Netflix Set to Release Documentary on EXODUS and Rob Dukes – A Deep Dive into the Lives of Two Rock Band Legends

Metal fans worldwide are in for a treat as Netflix prepares to unveil its latest rock documentary, New Era: The Time Has Come, a gripping exploration of legendary thrash metal band EXODUS and their former frontman Rob Dukes. The highly anticipated film promises an in-depth look into the band’s tumultuous history, Dukes’ tenure as their lead vocalist, and his journey beyond EXODUS.

A Story of Legacy, Chaos, and Redemption

EXODUS, one of the pioneering bands of the Bay Area thrash metal movement, has carved out a legacy spanning over four decades. Known for their relentless aggression, raw energy, and groundbreaking albums like Bonded by Blood and Tempo of the Damned, EXODUS has influenced countless metal bands worldwide.

The documentary sheds light on a particularly intense chapter in EXODUS’ history—Rob Dukes’ era (2005–2014). Taking over vocal duties after Steve “Zetro” Souza’s departure, Dukes brought a new ferocity to the band’s sound, fronting albums such as Shovel Headed Kill Machine, The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit A, and Exhibit B: The Human Condition. His time with EXODUS was marked by some of their heaviest material and an era of brutal live performances, but also internal tensions that eventually led to his dismissal.

Exclusive Interviews and Rare Footage

New Era: The Time Has Come will feature never-before-seen footage, candid interviews with EXODUS members, industry insiders, and Dukes himself, offering fans an unfiltered look at the highs and lows of his career. The documentary will also explore his post-EXODUS ventures, including his work with his crossover thrash band Generation Kill and his evolution as an artist outside of thrash metal.

With raw storytelling, powerful visuals, and a deep dive into the world of one of thrash metal’s most influential acts, Netflix’s latest rock doc is set to be a must-watch for metalheads and music lovers alike. The release date is yet to be announced, but anticipation is already building.

Stay tuned—the time has come! 🎸🔥
