Exodus was founded by Tom Hunting and Kirk Hammett (later departed to Metallica, having written only some material for the debut album). The band did not release any Hammett-era albums, just two demos (1982 and 1983). Kirk also named the band.

Tom Hunting also did vocals in the very beginning. According to Carlton Melson, the first line-up was: Hunting, Melson, Hammett and Agnello.
