Through this and its successors, Overkill has kept one foot on this landmark release, and let the other take further steps with each continued effort. \u201cRELIXIV\u201d being their 14th studio album, Overkill continues carving new and unexplored layers of the metal-face, yet embracing their traditional values. Overkill was early on labeled as a thrash metal band, but over the years, the band has proven over and over its sheer unwillingness to be categorized, matching the fans and the media\u2019s inability to do so. Anchor-points have always been a fine line between punk, hardcore and metal, but undoubtedly with metal as the enhanced part. Overkill of 2005 sounds brutal as ever, fresh as today and well-built like the past. The band is a unit of five individuals, all adding to the recipe. \u201cThis album has it all\u201d, main man Blitz states: \u201cPowerful and brutal, but always with a hookline in there\u201d. And right he is &#8211; Ellsworth\u2019s voice being the meat, Verni\u2019s pumping bass lines, Tailor\u2019s backbone rhythm guitars and Mallare\u00b4s ferocious drumming being the meat and potatoes, and Linsk\u2019s guitar work as the gravy you would sacrifice your left nut for. The diversity of \u201cRELIXIV\u201d says it all when it comes to this band &#8211; be it the pounding \u201cWithin Your Eyes\u201d or \u201cLove\u201d, the groove of \u201cLoaded Rack\u201d or \u201cBats In The Belfry\u201d, the haunting aggressiveness of \u201cA Pound of Flesh\u201d or the closing \u201cOld School\u201d &#8211; a little Ramones-ish nod to the New York roots. This band is a multiple opponent to the easy way of thinking, yet an essential companion to the art of satisfactory living.<\/p>\n<p>Tracklist:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"ng-star-inserted\">01.
