I never really listened to Overkill before, but I just decided to listen to them on Myspace, I'm listening to Elimination and the singer sounds like a character out of a kids cartoon. :shock: Music sounds pretty wicked.

Under The Influence, The Years Of Decay and Horrorscope are essential. Yes Bobby's singing can take a bit of getting used to (as with many other thrash bands...Vio-lence anyone??). Their latter records are very meh.

Took me ages to get into Vio-lence because of the vocal. Now I think the vocal is superb.

I just love vocals like overkill, etc, makes me laugh a lot, actually, the first metal songs i listened to used to make me laugh all the time, especially cannibal corpse and tom araya's screams on show no mercy!

the first Overkill albums ar good, no more no less imo, but some of the songs are utterly great!!!

I despise Overkill. I really could rant about them for pages and pages.
