War Is My Shepherd
War Is My Shepherd is an EP by Exodus, released in 2003 on Nuclear Blast.
It arrived at an interesting point in the band's story, landing between Force of Habit in 1992 and Tempo of the Damned in 2004. That left a gap of more than a decade without a full studio album, so this short release is a useful marker of the group's return to recording before the run of albums that followed, from Shovel Headed Kill Machine in 2005 through to Persona Non Grata in 2021.
