Dad always said overkill concerts kicked way more ass then any huge mainstream metal and I can see why. Even here in 2007 they all look 25 and sound exactly the way the do on their albums. That is REAL talent.
After all of these years, Overkill is still the shit live. What an awesome display. Bobby Blitz is a fricken beast. My wife would be so into him. Of course, I would be drooling all over D.D. Verni's brilliant bass licks. And I agree that Ironbound is a welcome return to form.
No matter how many top 4s are posted here, I guess we all agree that if you look beyond bay area, there's noone getting past OVERKILL! Big 1 in Thrash Metal: Overkill - no compairison, ESPECIALLY live!
i seen em in ohio at bogarts ill will never forget that ive always liked overkill and iam a deathmetal freak and that show was one of the best ive ever seen
fuckin bobby blitz is ripped dude and still standing at the age of 50 after so many complications to his health..bobby blitz, dave mustaine, and bon scott are bar none my idols!
in the 80's it was always mentioned the big 4 thrash bands were Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer. But it can be argued that Overkill or Testament belong on that list instead of Anthrax. Although it can be debated.
Ditto dude, haha. I saw them on Under The Influence and Years Of Decay at Sundance on LI in NY :-) Amazing band - Though I don't know much of their newer stuff. I heard they came out with a new CD recently, so....I have some catching up to do :-p
Don't no about that, but I do know metallica released their first album before Overkill had ever released anyhting, so maybe thats why they give htem more credit
Este es el mejor tipo de metal con el mejor grupo para exponerlo nada de que Metallica ni mis huevos OVERKILL invento el trash metal y debe ser respetado como tal!!!
