Seductively penned, P.G. A quicken your pulse kinda flavor to this write my friend. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

Damian

Reading your writes 1st thing in the morning sends me up, up & away. Blood pumping goodness! Who needs a bowl of sugary cereal, when I have the Poetic Gawdess to read. I hope you have a stimulating day..xxx

Mmm, the way your words stroke the page it’s like you’re reaching into my fantasies and bringing them to life. I’m burning with fire for what comes next. Show me how deep this desire goes, I’m ready for every word.

I like the way they kept going. Like just because they lost a deal.they kept going. Nice.

I remember reading this one on DUP. I never knew anything about them until you introduced them. I will say a couple things here. You brought such an infectious enthusiasm to the tellingvof theor story that it roused my curiosity. So well the fuck done there! Also, completely unrelated to the story, I have complete hair envy looking at their photo. Sigh… Another fascinating episode, my friend

EXCELLENT! Seen Overkill live 2 times in the 90’s and once in the 2000’s. Great live act. Horroscope was a mature, progressive thrash album. That release, they gained a wider audience. Atlantic Records wanted them to polish their sound even more with the followup, I Hear Black. That’s why that album sounds much different then others. They were trying to go mainstream. The album did ok, reaching the charts. WFO was solid, but the sales weren’t great. That was their last release on a major label. Overkill will never be as huge as Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth or Anthrax but they left their mark on Metal and Thrash Metal. Great job Damian.

I actually don’t think I know this band unless I’m just not recalling. But heck, any band with a ‘Fuck You” EP is worth a listen.

I have some YouTubing to do.

Meant to comment on this on DUP but the shutdown happened before I got around to it!

I never even thought of calling them the Motorhead of thrash but that is an apt description for them. When Hello From the Gutter came to Headbanger’s Ball on MTV they suddenly became one of my top-tier favorite bands. I even had an Under the Influence t-shirt I found at a mall in the city (they didn’t sell Overkill merch out in the sticks where I was from lol). 90-95 period is significant for me as those were very formative years (age 17-22)

I always felt that Overkill had a gritty realness to them, actually (imo) superior to Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer or Anthrax (the so-called “big four”). I grew up with those bands and went to the concerts and wore the t-shirts and cranked the tapes in my muscle cars but now, in my 50’s, I find that I never listen to any songs by the Big Four anymore, but I still listen to Overkill. The music has truly aged like a fine wine. A very streetwise kind of metal. Developed under harsh conditions. This is a band with a lot of moxie, and you can hear it in the music.

The Years of Decay is probably my sentimental favorite, but Horrorscope really showed how they had matured as songwriters. “Time to Kill” and “Who Tends the Fire?” are the 2 tracks I seem to drift back to the most.

I know I enjoy reading dark stuff. But somehow I didn’t find this one amusing. I guess thats the point which you hit exactly in the bullseye. Well written buddy!

Why do it at your friend’s place. Why not at a club or bar?
Done well, i felt for her

Powerfully penned, Keith. This one is a sad and unfortunate ending, but goes with the territory of addiction my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Such a sad ending..I know and love someone who struggles with addiction. I hate it, but like Damian stated before me, it comes with the territory. Well written Keith. xx

Thank you Adira. Appreciated..xo

Brought me a smile. I somehow remembered Animal Farm. This one is morbid and funny. They did you a favor. Hahaha

Plz can you send me their phone number. My neighbour is tearing my eardrums.

Cleverly penned, Keith. Sounds like this could have been an old school cartoon my friend. With more gore and violence of course. Appreciate you.
