The Electric Age

[Machine Translation] Overkill's new album! There are many theories as to how the New York/New Jersey area thrash metal scene was formed, but it is no secret that New Jersey's Overkill has survived the longest of all the bands in the genre, never once disappointing their fans with their music. Since the band's inception in 1984, Overkill has released more than a dozen albums, and when their 25th anniversary album "Ironbound" was released in 2010, the band was joined by a number of their influences, including modern metal scene leaders Vader, God, Dethroned, Wabringed and Wabringed. Dethroned, Wabringer, Evile, and Woe of Tyrants, all of whom are leaders in the modern metal scene and have greatly influenced the band, provided tour support. Currently the band consists of two founders, Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth (Vo) and D.D. Verni (B), two guitar players Derek "The Skull" Tailer and Dave Linsk, and drummer Ron Lipnicki. Overkill has been signed to Nuclear Blast since their 2010 release "Ironbound". Overkill has been signed to Nuclear Blast since their 2010 release "Ironbound" and is now ready to take their game to new heights.

オーヴァーキルの新作! New York/New Jerseyエリアのスラッシュ・メタル・シーンがどのように作り上げられて行ったのかは諸説あるのだが、ニュー・ジャージー出身のOverkill が一連のバンド群の中で最も長い時代をサヴァイヴし、その間一時たりともファンを失望させるような音楽を作ったことがないのは周知の事実である。1984年のバンド・スタート以来、10数作のアルバムをリリース、25周年記念作品となった2010年の作品"Ironbound"リリース時には、彼らに大きな影響を受け、現代のメタルシーンを牽引するVader、God Dethroned、Wabringer、Evile、Woe of Tyrantsらがツアー・サポートを勤めた。現在のメンバーはバンド創設者であるBobby "Blitz" Ellsworth (Vo)、 D.D. Verni (B)の2人、2人のギター・プレイヤーDerek "The Skull" Tailer、Dave Linsk、そしてドラマーのRon Lipnicki。2010年の作品"Ironbound"より、Nuclear Blast との契約を手にしたOverkill。更なる高みへと登り詰める。
