- Good Evening Metalheads. Welcome to METAL MARCH!!!
In this edition of the podcast Vernomatic and Metal Walt interview Bobby Gustafson ex Guitarist of OVERKILL.
We get the low down on what he is up to as of March 2023, how the break from VIO-LENCE came about and the roots of the name SATAN's TAINT.
We take a deep dive into the OVERKILL days with reflections on writing and recording those killer first 4 albums. The early NY/NJ touring days and general Heavy Metal Memory lane topics.
A great unique conversation filled with in-depth antidotes and disclosures found only here at Metal Mayhem ROC.

If it wasn't for Bobby, Overkill would never have been, this man is literally a song writing genus, and a damn good guitar player. Bobby, you are one of the main reasons I started playing guitar in 1991. it would be an honor to someday meet the man who helped define Thrash from its core. \m/
I totally agree I bet a fan since pretty much feel the fire. He was so cool to talk to and thank you for checking out the episode. We appreciate it

Years of decay is such a great masterpiece of an album to me it’s up there with all the greats
I saw Bobby with Vio-Lence in Philly and I was able to shake his hand and mention my Overkill fandom.
Great day and show! 🤘
Overkill is one of my fav bands, I loved The years of Decay and Under the influence, two of my fav metal albums of all time. Drunken Wisdom was so influential on me at that time, that crunchy guitar and massive bass sound is what I wanted to sound like playing metal. Loved hearing Bobby's point of view.
I totally agree. Been a fan for years. Thank you for listening and commenting
I Love the older Albums, Looking forward to the new one & will be doing a Review for it.
did one last week about the first 10 Albums
Bobby is THE Overkill-guitarist....he does the unique sound that defines Overkill besides Blitz' vocals.
After he left, Overkill lost 50% of their idendity.
The first 4 albums are untouchable...legendary.
I agree on Bobby establishing that sound in the formative years of overkill. I do also agree that the band has moved forward in a direction that is still solid illustrated by the release of their killer new album scorched. The band is a formula and they've gained long-term success but Bobby overkill era is still the best and will always be the best.
@@metalmayhemroc1851 Yup....Overkill supporting Slayer on their South of Heaven-Tour 89 was my first concert ever.
Still happy to saw them in that line up. Next time i saw em was at the Horrorscope-Tour.
Last time i saw em was the Killfest-Tour with Destruction + Flotsam & Jetsam in 2019 overhere.
Appreciate their hard work, but guitarwise they eversince sound good, but exchangeable.
Too much good teenage memories from "Taking Over" on.
Gustafson rules!
Cheers from Berlin/Germany 🍻
Bobby Gustafson one of my favorite guitarist. The years of decay is one of the best thrash albums of all time heavyness is unmatched. 🤘🏽
I totally agree. My favorite is taking over. Had a chance to see them on those early tours opening for Slayer. Absolutely incredible stuff. And it hasn't stopped I'll be seeing them in 2 weeks when they open for Metallica at the Jersey show.
dear bobby g, it's really nice to see your interview. You used to be the most important person in my favorite group. I've been listening to 'Who Tends the Fire' for days. I look forward to seeing you again, listening to these pieces over and over again, and what you're going to do next. nice to see you again.
OVER KILL - Feel the Fire (1985) belongs in every metal collection, stone cold classic! Bobbys guitar playing is perfect, its the kind of record that stays in my cd player for 2 months straight. Thank you Bobby!! (overkill live video metalhammer in germany 1986 is 18 min. of metal at its finest)
We totally agree. That's why we seeked out Bobby cuz he's the man. Thank you for checking out our interview and commenting.
Good guy! I still cherish those OverKill albums!
Met you 20 +yrs ago Bobby. Mad respect man, you're a legend
I love Overkill but they’ve never been as good after Bobby left. The guy is an amazing riff and song writer.
Disagree overkill is still great, recently seen them live . It was awesome.
Yeah ,no wonder he's topping the charts.
Overkill have MANY killer albums without Bobby.
Bobby is a has been guitarist that lost his identity after he left Overkill. Overkill doing just fine without him. Bobby cant write a good riff anymore.
Everyone has good points here, but I still like Gustafson's era in Overkill the best. The stuff that came afterward isn't bad or anything, it just doesn't feel the same at all to me and I don't enjoy it as much.
I've been friends with Bobby on Facebook for about 10 years, feels like I know him. For his level of talent he should be touring with one of the bigger metal acts and making money.
im 46 and started with under the influence and love all overkill but years of decay is the best and they are and were the best thrash band ever and bobbys playing is so underated hes a metal god that deserves to be living in a mansion and be a household name genius riff master
Nice to see this.. remember well seeing them in a club near Baltimore, stood maybe 10 feet from Bobby, the green lighting and the band in perfect form and sound,' Years of' period, playing Under the Influence, the lp that got my attention.. excellent show! 👽
Hi Kenneth!!... My name is Sebastian Sierpe (I'm 51 yo) from Santiago, CHILE, SOUTH AMERICA!!... I'm a huge fan of OVERKILL too and Rock and Metal in general. I'm Ufology Researcher (Ufologist?) here in SANTIAGO too... Why do you ended your comment with an alien face??... Greetings of a Chilean Rocker/Metalhead brother based in SANTIAGO, CHILE, SOUTH AMERICA 🇨🇱👿☺️🤩💀👏🤘👢🤟🥧🍰🎤🧢🔊🎹🎧🎵🎸😋🎼🍺🍻😁🎂🤔🇨🇱
I knew Bobby when I lived in South Florida 20 years ago and he was playing in a band called Response Negative. They fucking rocked and I always remember Bobby being cool AF.
That's awesome. Thank you for sharing .
The Years of Decay is still a top 10 album to me after all this time. Love BGs playing and sound on that one.
Taking Over & Years Of Decay are absolute classics up there with MOP, RIB, RIP etc
Oh I totally agree... I saw both these tours , TO with slayer. Great shit.
if i imagined if Bobby Gustafson was be back in overkill in the past and into right now in the future and bobby blitz talks about his new overkill album scorched. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I met that guy! At the Slayer show, in 1986, Providence….cool guy, I remember. I was just a kid then…
Reign in blood tour!!!. Nice
@@metalmayhemroc1851 yes, Reign in Blood had just come out, and it my first ever club show, after having seen Metallica three weeks earlier at the …what was it…a mid sized hall….veterans me memorial auditorium I think. What a year.
Overkill opening for slayer in 1986 at the lost horizon Syracuse NY, overkill then always played at the lost horizon!!🤘🤘
Saw Bobby when he was in OVERKILL three times, live!! He was the best!!
What tours and where did you see them.
@@metalmayhemroc1851 1988,1989,1990. All in Providence, RI.
saw overkill about 14 times got the chance to see them at the chance Poughkeepsie 1990 years tour only time with Gus fucker killer gus did evil never dies phenomenal
Great interview. Bobby is an icon.
Thank you for listening and taking the time to comment. We appreciate it
Overkill is the one band that should do anniversary tour FEEL THE FIRE!
Those first four Overkill albums are so good. I have a white explorer because of the one in the Hello From the Gutter video.
When he was ripping off James lol weird time
@@TheLordGoat
Yeah, what was up with that?
I got way into thrash in 87 when I was a teenager and I remember being so confused about that haha.
It would be nice to get a reissue from the “Power in Black” demo, but with liner notes from Gustafson and Rat Skates🐀
The Years of Decay was a masterpiece.
I totally agree.
Would be great if you find Vito bratta!?
awesome show
Vio-lence needs to call it quits. Perry left, Bobby left and Phil is all over the place with various bands. I was interested in seeing Vio-lence 2.0, but now it has devolved into 3.0, 4.0 and now 5.0. Unbelievable. What is this band? Megadeth in the 2000’s??
That's a valid point and I see where you're coming from. When does it get to the point where it's closer to a tribute band than a real band? Like look at Queensryche these days come on The real writing nucleus isn't in that band anymore.
🤘🏼🤘🏼
sounds like we're finally on the path to reconciliation. the monster reunion tour 2024?
Billy Milano was never in Pro Pain?
Yeah, as usual this dude is full of shit. All credit where due, he made the best Overkill what they were. But this dude keeps proving he's a douche.
He was for about five minutes when Gary & Dan were starting it after Crumbsuckers. It's right before Gary changed the name to Pro-Pain.
Years of decay best album 🤘🏽
Legend. So Johnny Z ripped off Overkill? I heard less than nice things about him from former Anthrax members.
It's starting to leak out .
People feel the need all the time to say things, to express opinions, to compare musicians, music, etc., etc., which if constructive is kinda good, albeit useless. These things belong to the past, more than three decades goddammit! Life went on, Overkill carried on. Arguably Bobby G gave Overkill this unique guitar sound we all know and love. Yet musically speaking, without him Overkill handled it way better than he did after parting ways with the band.
Bobby likes the Gottlieb!
Love blitz, sucks that Bobby hasn’t gotten what he’s supposed to though. Even if D.D. and blitz are all about the money they’ve earned it, about to release their 20th record. One of the hardest working bands
I agree... Bobby's one of my favorites that's why we did the interview but I also love what overkill's done. At least they're working and release and stuff.
Had a Satan's Taint autographed cd....got stolen out of my car
Overkill was never the same after Bobby Gustafson left besides he was carrying the others behind his back because they never did Mont to nothing getting two guitarist to feel Bobby Gustafson shoes is pathetic Bobby Gustafson is overkill period
gus was bad ass
Hey Bobby why dont you hook up with Kerry King.
Why is Bobby Gustafson on a channel with only 230 subs? Anyway Bobby is one of my favorite guitar players and was way too good to be in a band like Violence who is awful, mostly the vocals. Phil Demmel is also taking every gig he can, even playing with Overkill, so there was no way financially that it could work for him..
Well thank you for listening to the show. You know what follows 230 subs ?231.
How about you join our community.
Bobby's dedication and desire to work with Many is what makes him a solid talent. Visit www.metalmayhemric.com and check out some of our close to 150 other episodes.

Um record sales are better than they have ever been. I know everything I try to get is sold out within a week or two.
Then a week later you see it on ebay for 5 times the price.
Guy top right: either get a better microphone or get a better technique - annoyingly, your voice is fading in and out; can't hear some of the conversation. Sorry !
I love Bobby Gustafson, a guitarist of immense talent and music writing ability. For me the real Overkill ended the day he left..... 😔
Thank you for the comment. There was a tech issue throughout this sometimes you can't control it with the zoom. Thank you for the comment and the critique
@@metalmayhemroc1851
I apologise for my comment; I should have known that there would be issues with the audio. I guess that's life even in 2023.
I'm sorry..... 😊👋
Pretty sad state of affairs for bands now, touring is the only way to make money, and now they're trying to take that away too.
The color thing, ionically the Overkill logo was orange on Horrorscope. i wonder if that was a little shot at Bobby, lol.
Still confusing why Bobby was dressing exactly like Hetfield in 88. Complete image rip off, even the rings lol not a huge deal just confused us as kids.
Bobby was trying to fit in lol. After he left Overkill he just completely disappeared and no one really cared.
they need to squash their beefs they are all getting old and going to die would like to see this line-up once more even for one album
Same here...\m/
how cool would it be if bobby came over to fix some electrical for you spots your guitar and jams some riffs with you
