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.

What a great guy he is. I just saw him last Saturday in my city, and you can immediately tell how well he has treated his voice. It is unbelievable he sings perfectly. The band is a freaking well-oiled machine, they gave us everything they had, smashed us, and left the stage leaving us with a big smile on our faces. Love you Bobby and Overkill. Hope to see you again.

I'm sorry, but I don't agree with everyone, I think a lot of recognition belongs to Bobby Gustafson, he is Soley responsible for getting Overkill on the map, that's why I still follow Bobby G because even in his 2 Satan's Taint albums, he sounds more like the old school Overkill sound.

Great video and wonderful interview. I can positively attest to all the comments about Bobby being a most friendly and brilliant frontman/songwriter. I interviewed Overkill many times as a college kid back in the late 80’s and early 90’s,,, then had the pleasure of working with the band during the I Hear Black/WFO era, and also played in Bobby’s side project years later. Great times!

Blitz has such a unique voice that hasn't really changed that much through the years. It's kind of amazing that he is more like a long-distance athlete at this point. I saw them forever ago opening for Megadeth in club and his voice just shook the place. cut to all these years later and it is still the same power that he brings. Even his speaking voice is not very different from the way he delivers vocals on songs... There is just an intensity a personality that comes out.

I have now seen this video for the first time. I just wrote a KZitem comment about it a few days ago. For me, Bobby would have been the ideal singer for AC/DC instead of Axel Rose. I'm glad that Bobby personally confirms here that one voice fits especifically for the Bon Scott stuff. This is ecxactly my thinking. Of course I am an old school Overkill fan! Well done to myself ... hahaha!

I saw em in Miami on Taking Over with the original Megadeth and The Necros opening, on the Peace Sells tour in '87 on Rat Skate's birthday. Overkill was the loudest band I ever heard at this show. And then Megadeth was louder. Some guy hit a pole up the street and Megadeth kept losing power and had to run off the stage a bunch of times. And I swear I saw an early Pogo from Marilyn Manson at this show. It was at the Cameo.
