Great album as well

[@MikeysMorgue]

Love the 80s Thrash, Dylan! What a time! 🤘🏼

[@DylanTheCDCollector]

@@MikeysMorgue Hell yeah man!

[@MetalHeart8787]

One of my Favorite OK Albums I love the Cover & every song on this i Did a Review for this 2 years ago, I Bought this on Tape in September of 1988.

[@MikeysMorgue]

Killer album, for sure! My favorite is a tie between The Years of Decay and Horrorscope. I started to get into music around 1987-1988. Hell yeah! Rock on! Cheers! 🤘🏼🍻

[@JTsHorrorDiscussions]

Classic album man. Hope you had a great 4th Mikey!

[@MikeysMorgue]

JT! Hell yeah! 80s Thrash is truly amazing! There are so many classic albums by legendary bands. Thank you, JT! I stayed in bed until 5:30 pm. I hope you had a rockin' 4th, my friend! Rock on! Cheers! 🤘🏼🍻

The thrash metal pioneers from New Jersey 🇺🇲 strike back 😼🤘🎵🎶.

[@MikeysMorgue]

Yes! The East Coast bands get overlooked. Overkill, Anthrax, Whiplash, etc! Killer bands! 🤘🏼

[@RavensOsFan89]

I can tell it’s a thrash band by the artwork. I had a feeling.

[@MikeysMorgue]

Ryan! Absolutely! 😆 The 80s Thrash bands had a certain aesthetic. Rock on, my friend! 🤘🏼

I Love Overkill Horrorscope Album My Favorite Tracks Are Coma And Horrorscope. I Got On CD And Vinyl And Overkill Videoscope VHS With Horrorscope Official Music Video. I Loved It. 🤘🏻🤘🏻❤

[@MikeysMorgue]

Hell yeah! That's awesome! Horrorscope is a terrific album! I have another Overkill anniversary coming in 3 days. The Years of Decay and Horrorscope are my favorite Overkill albums. Rock on! Cheers! 🤘🏼🍻

[@NCmountainview]

Watch out, here it comes .... Seen them in a small club touring The Years of Decay with Bobby Gustafson on guitar.

[@MikeysMorgue]

Hell yeah! That’s amazing! The Years of Decay is tied with Horrorscope for my favorite Overkill album. Getting to see that tour with Gustafson on guitar is so cool. I wish I had been there! Keep on kicking a$$! Rip it up! Thank you for watching! Cheers! 🤘🏼🍻

[@sabbithablood5219]

I enjoy listening to your reviews because if it's a band I'm not sure about then I can go check it out! Cheers 🍻 🤘

[@MikeysMorgue]

Thank you, Sabbi! That means a lot! I really appreciate it! You're amazing! 🤘🏼🍻

[@TheCDGuyJZ]

Great album! Still bummed I missed Overkill when they were playing the parking lot at Metlife Stadium before the Metallica concert last year. Oh well... Cheers man!

[@MikeysMorgue]

Yes! Overkill is a good thrash band. I think they get a little overlooked. Damn! It would have been cool to catch them in that parking lot show! Rock on, Johnny Z! 🤘🏼🍻

[@GoreAphobe]

Man I love Overkill too! This is probably their best imo. Followed by years of decay. One of the bands that I was in back in '90 I think did the songs Elimination & Years of decay. The Overkill that I loved was never really the same after the"Years of decay" album imo though..

[@MikeysMorgue]

E..lim..in..ation! Killer song! I love The Years of Decay. I also really like Horrorscope. Almost every bands best stuff is their earlier albums. 🤘🏼

[@AnthonyChobotdoespopcult-jz7jr]

It was a great album

[@MikeysMorgue]

You know all the killer stuff, Anthony! Hell yeah! Rock on! 🤘🏼

@@AnthonyChobotdoespopcult-jz7jr Very true, Anthony! 🤘🏼👍🏼

[@mikerauter1859]

all time classic, never recaptured the input of Gustafson though

[@MikeysMorgue]

Mike! Right on! I agree! Have you heard DD Verni's solo album? It's punk, like The Ramones! I hope you had a rockin' 4th! Cheers, my friend! 🤘🏼🍻

Does listening to Overkill make you Over-Grill 😅

Jordan! I don't need to listen to Overkill for that. I'm a terrible cook! 😆😅🤣😂

@@MikeysMorgueTheir band logo looks familiar. Did they have any songs in movies? They had some good 80s hair, too. 🤘🎸

[@MikeysMorgue]

@@gooniesgirl1979 I'm pretty sure Avenged Sevenfold ripped off this logo/mascot.

[@jordantasevski2993]

@@MikeysMorgue I mean it could be possible Avenged Sevenfold didn't know about Overkill's mascot or that Overkill wasn't the first but I think what's disappointing is that 3 of Avenged Sevenfold's albums have nearly the same cover art (Waking the Fallen, Avenged Sevenfold, Hail to the King)

[@EdCollects]

Thrash isn't my favorite, that's probably why I haven't gotten around to listening to them.

[@MikeysMorgue]

Ed! Their album The Years of Decay sounds a lot like early Metallica. You might like that album. 🤘🏼
