Show Notes

It's been a long time coming, but we thought it was high time that we brought Overkill into the discussion. Considered one of the originators of thrash, yet often relegated to a second tier act. Similar to Exodus, circumstances prevented them from releasing a record until well after Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax already gained prominence in the scene. This episode we discuss the first 5 albums and hopefully shine a well deserved light on this crucial thrash band.
