To the Baloff Family, Exodus and extended global family who loved Paul my sympathy and prayers are with you.

I have vivid memories of Paul and Exodus. I first had friends in high school give me a demo tape. The tape said "a lesson in violence, kill all posers!!". The intensity, savage, lethal edge of Exodus and in particular Paul's vocal delivery are metal standards to this very day.

Kabuki theatre, Bonded by Blood record release party. Paul set the tone early. Brutal, violent, chaos of aggression and celebration of release. From that day onward I take my stand and obey, "metal command".

We will all miss you, and our hearts are a little heavy.
However, your scar and this earth is forever, bonded by blood.

Thanks for being there Paul, you really helped us all.
