I remember that “Columbia House” era back in high school. Time sure does fly by the older we get.

I've been an Overkill fan since seeing the "In Union We Stand" video on MTV in the 1980's....They still rule!

Overkill is my favorite thrash band of all time! Blitz is a legend and one of the most down-to-earth guys one could ever meet. I saw them live for my very first time back in March of 2022 in the North Carolina mountains. I was at the very front leaning up against the barricade. What an incredible show.

Co-worker handed me a cassette copy of "Years Of Decay" back in '89 and said, "listen to this and get back to me". I didn't want to give the cassette back. I've been a fan ever since. Blitz has NEVER given into fads and changes in the musical landscape over the years and just does what he does. Pure thrash. Take it or leave it.

I was 12 when my older cousin went to prison and he left his cd’s with me. Years of Decay was one of them and it blew my mind. Horrorscope dropped about a year later.

Thumbs up for Bobby Ellsworth! He is one of those guys/frontmen who always is so down to earth, in good mood, honest and likeable. Hope this interview would have lasted for 90 minutes!

Bobby Blitz is a treasure. Love this guy.

Overkill are still crushing it. My band, M1 A1, opened for them on their Horrorscope tour in 1992 at the Escape Club in Salisbury Beach, Massachusetts. What a show that was.
