OVERKILL Frontman Interviewed In Mexico City; Video Available - Nov. 3, 2009
Mexico's Search & Destroy conducted an interview with vocalist Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth of New Jersey thrash metal veterans OVERKILL when the band played Mexico City on October 24, 2009. Watch the chat below.

OVERKILL has inked a U.S. deal with E1 Music (formerly KOCH Records) for the February 9, 2010 release of its new album, "Ironbound". The CD, which will be issued in Europe on January 29, 2010 via Nuclear Blast Records, was mixed by PAIN/HYPOCRISY mainman Peter Tägtgren and is described in a press release as "a true thrasher-piece."

OVERKILL will tour in support of "Ironbound" beginning in February in Europe. South America dates will take place in March and a U.S. tour will kick off April 1 in Philadelphia and end on May 1 with a big 25th-anniversary show in New York City at the Nokia Theater. The band says, "We have lots of plans to make that a special celebration show for everyone. "

"Ironbound" track listing:

01. The Green And Black
02. Ironbound
03. Bring Me The Night
04. The Goal Is Your Soul
05. Give A Little
06. Endless War
07. The Head And Heart
08. In Vain
09. Killing For A Living
10. The SRC

* Limited digipak
* CD Jewelcase
* LP (180g vinyl) in gatefold
* LP (180g green vinyl) in gatefold (Nuclear Blast Mailorder exclusive)
* Strictly limited mailorder edition

On May 12, Megaforce Records reissued two classic OVERKILL albums on colored vinyl.

* "Feel The Fire" on red/orange marbled vinyl
* "Fuck You And Then Some" (first time on vinyl!!) which is a double LP set — one LP on regular black vinyl and the other on black/yellow marbled vinyl with a big fat middle finger etched into side D.

Both albums are limited to 500 hand-numbered copies

OVERKILL's second DVD, "Live at Wacken Open Air 2007", came out in February 2008 via Bodog Music. The 50-minute disc was shot during the band's headline set at the festival in front of an audience of 40,000, and features songs that span OVERKILL's 28-year career, including "Walk Through Fire" from the group's latest disc "Immortalis", "Rotten to the Core", "Elimination", "Fuck You", "In Union We Stand", "Necroshine", "Skull and Bones", "Old School" and "Wrecking Crew".

It seems the KILL are up to their old 'tricks' again.

Is there anyone who can stop them????????????????


They're coming again to a town near you.

Evil green is back for more.....

You know, they were very, unfortunately, maybe, influential up thro my 20's and more. Truly, they bring it every time, like all their cd's or not, they never fake it!! And 'cept for last 2Cd's - they're all solid & killer LP's.

Hell, I'm glad they're back.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OVERKILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! '10!!!!!!!!!!!

Blitz has always given good interviews. One of the hardest working bands out there. Seen them for the first time 2 years ago and have to say their live act hooked me big time.
