OVERKILL - Taking Over LP (Black Vinyl)

180 gram audiophile vinyl.

Overkill has been one of the most reliable thrash bands over the 4+ decades of their existence, releasing an album every three years (or more) since their debut, with the exception of this year it would seem. But consistency can only go as far as name and brand will take it, and where Overkill made its money was with the ascendancy of East Coast thrash in the mid- to late-'eighties. "Feel the Fire" was massively influential, "The Years of Decay" was precariously ambitious, but "Taking Over" was a perfect blend of both and a pillar of 1987's historic bid for the greatest year of thrash.
