Overkill hit the UK – and they kick off in Brum!
New Jersey-based thrash metal titans Overkill are delighted to announce they will be returning to the UK and Ireland this April for a run of headline shows entitled the ‘Killfest’ tour.
Enigmatic frontman Bobby ‘Blitz’ Ellsworth had to say on the announcement;
“We are happy to announce we are coming back to the UK, to thrash it up with our cousins across the pond! Yes, yes, yes boys and girls from New Jersey to England, Ireland & Scotland the “Wrecking Crew” comes your way next April, kicking off in Birmingham on the 5th. So let’s mark the dates and remember, I’m easily disappointed! HA! Over the wall boys and give ’em the cold steel!”
