Default Overkill

Searched this whole forum, and didn't find a thread about them, so I figured I start one. Anyway, I've been a huge fan of this band for a while now, and I've seen em live before, awesome show! They're one of my favorite thrash bands, and Bobby Blitz Ellsworth is an awesome vocalist. Any other Overkill fans here?

Yeah their new album is pretty damn good and it's not just another retro sounding Thrash album either that seem to be popping up all over the place. I think Loathsome is a fan of it too. Shame I couldn't get to see them last month as I couldn't get to a festival I had tickets for. Never seen them before either.

Aw man, Overkill ****ing rule! I still remember my epic year long search for The Years of Decay a while back. Which of course led to an epic year long search for Horrorscope, that was also successful. Great band.

I`ve always been an Overkill fan and Bobby Ellsworth is a great vocalist. Their best three albums have to be The Years of Decay, Horrorscope and The Killing Kind, also I Hear Black was a good groove metal album that they put out.

I have to admit I've tried to get into these guys but they've never quite clicked with me. I think part of it is I have a hard time getting past the vocals.
