These guys are freaks. Twenty five plus years and theyre still as brutal and consistant as ever. I 1st got into them after reading a review for Years Of Decay in a metal magazine as a teenager and I've never looked back, theyve never given me a chance to 'cos the just keep pumping out great album after great album. Unfortunately theyve never been to Australia, so Ive never gotten the opportunity to see them live. Who knows, maybe one day
This is Overkill's best cd to me, This song just shreds ( No pun intended on that great Overkill song "Shred" as that rocks as well) however this song is a killer guitar riff tune. THRASH AT ITS VERY BEST
I enjoy many different bands across the spectrum of metal, as far as thrash metal goes its Overkill and Kreator for me (Overkill being my favorite band of all time!)
the most underrated thrash band is probably testament. i mean alex skolnick is one of the best guitarist ever, yet i never ever hear of them, execpt maybe in one time in the thrash metal documentary. underrated and popular is not the same thing. overkill,exodus,testament,nuclear assault,destruction, all pretty popular amongst thrashers but they are very underrated.
to be honest, i don't know of any bands that cover overkill tunes... that's why my band is either covering time to kill, birth of tension or powersurge... :O
Wow someone else who agrees haha. But Under The Influence and W.F.O tie it up with this for me. All outstanding albums. But what Overkill album isn't outstanding?
Fuck yah man, if you're counting DVDS, i got the wrecking everything live in asbury park one to, but i need the new one where they're playing at walken haha. Noone can deny this band, they're unstoppable haha!
If you like this, you should check out Bobby's new band, The Cursed. Overkill is still together, but this is a side project he worked on. His vocals are ALOT deeper, sounds pretty good tho! Check out my profile for the songs.
So One is stupid,the unforgiven is stupid are you fucking kidding me.Some songs from load -reload are stupid but they totaly deserve the credit,the first five albums are beast.
The Big Four Fucken A rule No doubts about it, but theyre more or less the most recognized. Slayer, Mustaine, Scott Ian and Benante are all still pure too some good ole friendly Vio-lent fun, but the sellouts can rott in hell, or atleast be replaced by some TRUE THRASH like RAZOR,KREATOR,DARK ANGEL,VIO-LENCE,PANTERA,OVERKILL, SEPULTURA, DEMOLITION HAMMER. fuck just any genuine whiplashin neck breakin old school thrash masters. hail the fucken leaf brothers
@5523153976 i love anthrax, i saw them last month with death angel and testament and i even got to meet mark osegueda from death angel backstage. i don't hate any of them, but if any band from the big 4 were to be replaced by overkill it should be metallica, though i love them too. love their older shit though.
@jedsebastian i love metallica but their older shit is way better. death magnetic wasn't bad, but it did have three bad songs: The End Of The Line, Unforgiven 3, and Suicide & Redemption.
the big 4 saxon, witchfinder general , sabbath ,priest , no i really think that the assholes from dancing with stars picked the big , overkill has to be #1 . WHO IS METTALLICA !!!
It shows One so what does that mean it's overrated.This is one of their most known songs.And yes you don't have an idea about music.You said For Whom The Bells Tolls is stupid,how can you say.What did you not like about the song,the awsome riffs or the epic bass by the Cliff Burton?
@aederosion you obviously don't get what overkill is about xP they were fucking founders of thrash metal man, get your facts/fucts (pardon the pun) straight.
@5523153976 Overkill is my one of the best bands but Anthrax is technical better, sorry but its true. I bought my first album of Overkill in 1987 and in my opinion there should br not big 4 but big 6 including Testament and Overkill.
Anthrax bullshit music you got to be kidding ! I will listen to Anthrax anyday over the "real" shit music like rap or electronic music. by the way Among the living by Anthrax is a awesome thrash album. But I understand what you mean; that Overkill have always been true to themselves and never tried to become more mainstream
Old Metallica were awsome just because their new stuff ain't as good as the long this doens't mean they suck.The first five Pantera albums were awful but I don't see you complain about that.Also Pantera and Sodom are not even close to Metallica and Overkill.
@JoAquim5612 couldn't agree more! the reason i'm not into the BIG 4 shit is beacuse of metallica, they are totally outdated band, death magnetic is just ridiculous, screw lars, you're the weakest drummer of the entire metal genre. overkill has been true to it's roots.
Seriously? Why is there a Metallica fanboy here? Listen buddy, Metallicas first 5 albums are some of the greatest things ever released with the label Thrash Metal on it no doubt but they SUCK now Death Magnetic is overrated everyone talks about how it's amazing it's a GOOD album not amazing. Lars got lazy as hell and James blew out his vocals on the Black Album tour and has never been the same. Also Megadeths first 5 are just as good as Metallicas. They're also FAR MORE CONSISTENT than Metallic
Countdown to Extiction is soft and The Black Album is way better thats why people like it and they bought it.Comparing Megadeth with Metallica is humilliating.You can't compare Cliffs Burtons masterpieces with any Megadeth song.Look at The Four Hoursemen it's 100 times better than the Mechanix.Metallica can write better songs.Some of the Megadeth solos are better but Metallica's riffs and vocals are way above Megadeths.Also Dave now is an idiot who thinks Obama stages shootings.

This is Overkill's best cd to me, This song just shreds ( No pun intended on that great Overkill song "Shred" as that rocks as well) however this song is a killer guitar riff tune. THRASH AT ITS VERY BEST
they're just the best... just the best!
I enjoy many different bands across the spectrum of metal, as far as thrash metal goes its Overkill and Kreator for me (Overkill being my favorite band of all time!)
Overkill above all else!

"From the Underground and Below"
Tankard Is the most underrated thrash band. Everyone knows Overkill!

to be honest, i don't know of any bands that cover overkill tunes... that's why my band is either covering time to kill, birth of tension or powersurge... :O
Buen trallazo de thrashhhh!!!!!
Wow someone else who agrees haha. But Under The Influence and W.F.O tie it up with this for me. All outstanding albums. But what Overkill album isn't outstanding?
muy bueno si me gusto lo agrege a mis favoritos
That's odd that they don't come up there, you should petition for Razor to reunite with Sheep Dog and get them to tour with Overkill!!!
on november 7 watch OVERKILL bring me the night so we can make it #1 on youtube
Fuck yah man, if you're counting DVDS, i got the wrecking everything live in asbury park one to, but i need the new one where they're playing at walken haha. Noone can deny this band, they're unstoppable haha!
Yah i need killbox and i got em all to haha. Cheers dude.

I don't get why everybody hates the groovier Overkill.
Yes sir, no idea how this surfaced.
no olvides ride the lightning

wow, is this the missing long time dyin promo vid? awesome.
sounds like Iommi!
My personal big 5 of thrash: Testament (replaces Metallica), Anthrax, Megadeth, Overkill and Dark Angel (replaces Slayer).
that's fine with me
the best intro IMO is Megadeth - Last Rites
The Big Four Fucken A rule No doubts about it, but theyre more or less the most recognized. Slayer, Mustaine, Scott Ian and Benante are all still pure too some good ole friendly Vio-lent fun, but the sellouts can rott in hell, or atleast be replaced by some TRUE THRASH like RAZOR,KREATOR,DARK ANGEL,VIO-LENCE,PANTERA,OVERKILL, SEPULTURA, DEMOLITION HAMMER. fuck just any genuine whiplashin neck breakin old school thrash masters. hail the fucken leaf brothers
the real big 4: overkill, testament, megadeth, slayer
@5523153976 i love anthrax, i saw them last month with death angel and testament and i even got to meet mark osegueda from death angel backstage. i don't hate any of them, but if any band from the big 4 were to be replaced by overkill it should be metallica, though i love them too. love their older shit though.
You from illinois?
@jedsebastian i love metallica but their older shit is way better. death magnetic wasn't bad, but it did have three bad songs: The End Of The Line, Unforgiven 3, and Suicide & Redemption.
the big 4 saxon, witchfinder general , sabbath ,priest , no i really think that the assholes from dancing with stars picked the big , overkill has to be #1 . WHO IS METTALLICA !!!
um...no dude, jersey, why do you ask?
🫵🤘💚🦇💀🦇💚🤘🫵
@5523153976 come on,anthrax is great band.They are even more influental than overkill.Still, i love both bands.
kanka yılansın
It shows One so what does that mean it's overrated.This is one of their most known songs.And yes you don't have an idea about music.You said For Whom The Bells Tolls is stupid,how can you say.What did you not like about the song,the awsome riffs or the epic bass by the Cliff Burton?
@aederosion you obviously don't get what overkill is about xP they were fucking founders of thrash metal man, get your facts/fucts (pardon the pun) straight.
@5523153976 I think that overkill should replace metallica

Decir que metallica es bueno es como decir que Darzamat seria mejor sin Nera
Anthrax bullshit music you got to be kidding ! I will listen to Anthrax anyday over the "real" shit music like rap or electronic music. by the way Among the living by Anthrax is a awesome thrash album.
But I understand what you mean; that Overkill have always been true to themselves and never tried to become more mainstream

@5523153976 i would even say better than megadeth for me...
el unico disco bueno que a sacado metallica es kill'em all todos los demas son una decepcion.... overkill hasta la fecha son excelentes
Kickass video, lousy quality
I stopped reading when you said For Whom The Bell Tolls is stupid.
