Favorite Overkill Album?

[kyuss]

I can't believe I'm the only one who voted for:

I Hear Black [ 1 ] [5.56%]

They all rock though!

WOW... a vote for "I Hear Black?" You're a rare bird my friend.

[Dark Star]

By the way, my vote goes to 1997's FROM THE UNDERGROUND AND BELOW but my favorite Overkill CD changes almost constantly (the only CD of theirs that I DON'T care for is I HEAR BLACK) so if you asked me tomorrow I would probably give you a different answer...

 

WELCOME TO THE GUTTER...WE'VE BEEN EXPECTING YOU!!! HAHAHAHAHAAA!

 

 

I agree.. My favorite album from Overkill pretty much changes by the day or week..*Chuckles*

 

And "I Hear Black" Is not that bad damnit..*L*

 

Just for two songs..."Spiritual Void" and "Just Like You" GOOD songs.. Least I think so..*L*

Oh yes it IS that bad. Even Blitz has admitted that he doesn't care much for I HEAR BLACK at all.

 

If it weren't for "Spiritual Void" and "World of Hurt" I would've traded that CD away a LONG time ago.

I had to go with Under The Influence with Horrorscope a very close second.

Yea ok it's not their best by a LONG shot, that's true...*Chuckles* World of Hurt is good, but I just LOVE "Just Like you"

Feel the Fire beats the others easily, as far as i'm concerned; followed by Under the Influence, Taking over,The Years of Decay, the Killing Kind and Horrorscope.Necroshine and From the Underground and Below are a bit too much 90s a la Pantera/Machine Head flavored for my taste.

Under The Influence

 

I remember when I first heard it... what a brutal sound! I literally feared of this album and loved it at the same time.

[JamesEagle]

I'm a big fan of Overkill, lots of good songs and some decent albums but for me this one is easy: Horrorscope by a mile. Consistent album, every track is a winner, incredible songwriting. Some of Overkill's best tracks, e.g. 'Nice Day For A Funeral', 'Blood Money', 'Horrorscope', 'Soulitude' - all 10/10 songs. An absolutely brilliant album. All of the other albums have some filler on imo.

[Dead Planet]

Easy pick for me....W.F.O......nothing else comes close....

[Dark Star]

Ha, I'd love to jump on a plane and hit one of those fests, but if I were going to do it I should've done so when I was single and in my 20s. Now I'm an old married guy whose spouse & kid probably wouldn't like it much if I dropped everything and disappeared to Europe for a week. Sure would be sweet. Maybe I'll do it when I hit 40 to celebrate my midlife crisis with some of my favorite old school bands!

 

 

Hmmm.. Don't you hit 40 in a couple months Man???

Yea, I do... wanna loan me the $$ to make this dream a reality?

 

By the way... DAMN this is an old thread. Overkill has released two more albums (IMMORTALIS and now IRONBOUND) since I first posted this thing....!

gonna see Overkill on 4/2 in Worcester,Mass headlining Killfest

There are some good songs on it, that's true, but i just can't stand Terry Date's production: it sounds cold ,lifeless and mechanical.That's okay for a Pantera album, but not for a thrash metal album, imo.

[Chris]

Not a fan by any stretch so I would have to say none of the above.

[heaven&hell]

I just realized that I never voted in this poll.

 

I went with Years of Decay.
