Overkill in 20+yrs have never altered their approach or undermined their integrity. to make a buck or appeal to a wider group of people. They make music for themselves and fans like me. Overkill is amoung the best and underrated metal bands ever.
It came out in '94 but it's still in the 80's thrash style; a testament to the fact that Overkill didn't abandon their style or sell out, like many of that time did.
Overkill is and has always been one of my favorite bands. The Big 4 was coined because those bands were some of the first but also the most successful! When talking about older thrash, I call them the original 6 because Overkill & Exodus should never be left out of the history of thrash, hell they were there too at the beginning! Now I love Testament but their first album is from 1987, so to me they are a very successful second tier band! Even Metal Church doesn't get the respect they deserve!
Well said. Exodus and Overkill do not get the credit they are due. They were there since the start. Testament started a little later. Although the quality of their product is undeniable.
Horrorscope FTW !! Its up there with the best thrash album of all time !! IMO anyway, i love these guys, relentless & energetic shows with tight as hell speed metal thrash MUSIC & you can see they love it & give all to their fans, nothing else left to say !! OVERKILL fkng RULES !!
Overkill were a second tier thrash band in their day. I defy ANYONE to name me a TOP TIER metal band from today that even comes close to these guys. God, I miss the glory days of metal, when bands like this, Sodom and Dark Angel could just be tossed aside as "good metal."
Funny thing. The guy that does my sound and lighting told me yesterday that he used to be this band's guitar player, so I just found him on here. Small world.
why am i not a 10-year-older man to live 80s in veins! i wanna go back in time and be one of the fist listeners of new records like taking over, years of decay, w.f.o! hail the best thrash band ever! \m/ \m/
WFO along with I Hear Black are undoubtedly their 2 most underrated albums. But with songs like Bastard Nation and Gasoline Dream you cannot imagine why.
hey...I'm 33 and fortunately i had the chance,...in iran we had to smuggle the cds, sort of. what a day it was when i first listened to w.f.o! i was thinking today teenagers are all into shit metal and rap,...i'm delighted. keep up good listenin man!
As Bobby Ellsworth said on Overkill's Moscow gig in 1996 "крутая публика" (cool audience)... superb song. Long live Old School Thrash. P.S. We, Russians really look forward a visit of something old, cool and heavy. For example, we want Megadeth, Overkill and Ac-DC to visit our country one more time. At least)))
Esta banda surgiu,quando eu tinha 2 anos de idade! muito boa esta banda da mesma linha de JUDAS PRIEST( padre judas) e IRON MAIDEN ( dama de ferro) já ouvi muito esta banda!
The Blitz survived a fucking stroke on-stage, man. But he still wanted to finish the album while he was getting his head checked. When you have a stroke and still go back to finish recording a fucking epic thrash album in Necroshine, to me that implies that Bobby's a pretty fucking tough dude. Gb2Metallicrap

the proud fuck you feeling of this song is amazing, and to this day i have no clue what exactly did that to this song, but it's amazing, the song that turned me on to overkill.

W.F.O., under the influence, and from the underground and below are probably the best over kill albums... BESIDES EVERY OTHER ALBUM BEING FUCKING AMAZING AND BETTER THAN METALLICA!
Well said! I can't list who's best, sometimes I like some bands more than others and it depends what I'm into at the moment. But I do have a favorite band wich is always gonna be number one, Pantera. But ovekill is fucking awesome one of the best thrash bands

Thumbs up to anybody who remembers the Power 30 program on Much Music back in the day.
Most criminally underrated metal band ever, possibly.
Agreed
one of the most underestimated thrash bands,,,, i like this guys...wooohhooo overkill!!
One of my favorites from Overkill. Such a kick ass song.
bobby "blitz" and james hetfield pretty much have the best thrash vocals ever. Long live OVERKILL!!!!
Bay far THE most underrated Metal band ever and my personal favorite of all time!
A uniqe song from a unique thrash metal band! Overkill never betrays its fans. They've always been a true MeTaL band.
fantastic band, great vocals, overkill rule.
This + Gasoline Dreams = the 2 best songs from the Gant/Cannavino era
Saw these guys in concert recently. They're the only thrash band I've forgiven for doing groove metal later on.
I LOVE OVERKILL!
Horrorscope FTW !! Its up there with the best thrash album of all time !! IMO anyway, i love these guys, relentless & energetic shows with tight as hell speed metal thrash MUSIC & you can see they love it & give all to their fans, nothing else left to say !! OVERKILL fkng RULES !!
why has it taken me so long to finally check these guys out, fuuuuck ive wasted so much time. !heavy metal!
on of the best songs of the band...
Tive o prazer de ver OVERKILL ao vivo no paradise garage com os ANNIHILATOR...awesome band since i was a kid...POTENTE comó caralh
Kick-ass video from the mid-90's love it !
Bastard Nation -- killer thrash track from the 1994, they were pissed when they did that song and released Wide Fucking Open.
Why is everyone talking about who should be the 'Big 4'? The Big 4 was based on how much albums were being sold... not how good they are.
OVERKILL!! \m/
I love OVERKILL !!!!
Agreed with all of you Overkill is the ass kicker No. 1 !!!
Esta banda surgiu,quando eu tinha 2 anos de idade! muito boa esta banda da mesma linha de JUDAS PRIEST( Padre Judas) e IRON MAIDEN( Dama de Ferro)!
Usually not a fan of live stuff--this is cool.
This is the version that I like more!
both SICK bands.
Overkill were a second tier thrash band in their day. I defy ANYONE to name me a TOP TIER metal band from today that even comes close to these guys.
God, I miss the glory days of metal, when bands like this, Sodom and Dark Angel could just be tossed aside as "good metal."
Me too, and I'm going to see them in October. Check out their tour dates on their site there's probably a show close by.
i like the way how bass sounds in OVERKILL!
Long live METALL ROCK!
Agreed! Best American thrash metal band EVER!
Funny thing. The guy that does my sound and lighting told me yesterday that he used to be this band's guitar player, so I just found him on here. Small world.
Awesome
this song rules !!!
Awesome. OVERKILL!!!!!!
