On October 17, Metal Mark of SkullsNBones.com conducted an interview with vocalistBobby “Blitz” Ellsworth of New Jersey thrash metal veterans OVERKILL.
Asked about OVERKILL’s timeline for the follow-up to 2014’s “White Devil Armory” album, Ellsworth said: “We’re shooting for October of 2016; I mean, that’s our release date time. We’re gonna start demoing stuff come early next year. We’re gonna go to South America first, ’cause we just like doing that; I mean, it’s just fun, it’s off the hook down there. Then we have a tour through the U.K. and one special show we’re gonna do in Germany. But, during that process, stufl will be recorded and written and re-written. So it’s never this distinct timeline process for us. It’s kind of us saying, ‘Okay, let’s start,’ and then all the shit we’ve collected since ‘White Devil Armory’ starts showing itself, starts coming out. We planted the seeds, and now you see the leaves coming out of the ground. So it’s not gonna be that hard process. I mean, it’s not gonna be ever talk. It’s just gonna be action versus reaction, like many OVERKILL records. I can’t tell you it’s gonna be the best thing since canned beer or sliced bread; it’s just gonna be OVERKILL.”
