I've just been listening to this and in my opinion it's the best album they've released since the 90's for sure.
The riff at the start of Come And Get It sets the tone nicely for the album, Save Yourself, Drop The Hammer and Old Wounds New Scars are the holy trinity on the album for me.
A Belfast date is fucking long overdue for these guys, someone should get them over before it's too late. \m/ |

I gave up on them after Killbox, nothing wrong with it, just did nothing for me. I might find a stream of this but my days of buying Overkill albums without hearing them are long over. |

Exactly!
I'm a bit short on cash at the moment so am undecided between this, the new Napalm or Meshuggah. Woe is me! |

| Overkill never really drop the ball, having said that practically all their albums since I hear Black are of the "listen to a few times, then file away for good" variety. |

Just after watching the bonus dvd that came with the album there, really likeable band.You have to love Bobby Blitz (he's in his fuckin 50's) and DD.
The album just debuted at 77 in America, which is excellent for them considering they don't get the coverage other so called old school/legends of thrash get.
Ironbound was great, The Electric Age is sounding as good and even more energetic.Great production too.
Write them off at your peril!
THEY'LL WRECK YOUR NECK!!! |

Not this album, it shreds, simply stated, in a word!  |
