"Fabulous Disaster" is the third album by Exodus, released in 1989 (see 1989 in music). In 1999, Century media remastered and reissued the band's first three albums in Europe only. A video was made for the song "The Toxic Waltz" which received a good amount of air-play on MTV's Headbanger's Ball.

This is Tom Hunting's last album with Exodus until the 1997 live release "Another Lesson in Violence."
