Overkill To Release New Album In April

For over 4 decades, Overkill have been trailblazers in producing some of the most signature moments in the world of metal. On April 14th, the New Jersey thrash legends will bludgeon your ears with their twentieth studio album, entitled "Scorched" via Nuclear Blast Records.

Today, the band offers fans the first taste of the album with single, 'The Surgeon'. Listeners will enjoy a crash course in Overkill featuring blistering vocals, surgically shreddy riffs, galloping drums, and the dirty low-end bass that fans come out of the gutter for. Enjoy the classic sound that has made you love the NJ thrash outfit for 40+ years via the visualizer for "The Surgeon" below.

Overkill's Bobby Blitz comments:
"Man, it seems like for F-in ever since we chatted!!!! Ha! I tell you what, this is the longest ever between Overkill releases, Feb '19 to April '23.

"For me, it became my 'peterpandemic' go-to. I wrote my part, tore it down, then again and again. I found myself still changing parts while Colin was mixing! It became the normal in a very abnormal time, sanity amongst the insanity. Somewhere in 'Scorched' that is all reflected, a common thread, it is the place I went to get what I needed, maybe what "we" needed. It's different, that's for sure, an old-school approach/mix in a modern world... was it worth the wait? You tell me... see ya on the road! Horns up!" More...

Nervosa Splits With Vocalist Diva Satanica

Brazilian thrash metal outfit Nervosa has announced that they have parted company with vocalist Diva Satanica (also of Bloodhunter.) A statement from the band reads as follows:

"Since September 2022 Nervosa was informed that Diva would leave the band, and since then she has carried out all activities with great professionalism and respect. The reason for her departure is because she chooses to invest more time in other projects and in her band. Since her decision, we entered into an agreement to comply with the Latin America tour and announce her departure later so that we could plan everything calmly and in time.

"We understand and support her decision. It's not easy for either party, but life is made of choices and decisions. So don't judge too harshly, because it's a very painful moment for both parties.

"All our respect to Diva, thank you for all her dedication and contribution. We wish you good luck on your new journey. Nervosa has been working with a vocalist for the last 2 months, and is also working with a new drummer.

"The recordings for the new album start this week, so stay tuned on our social networks because we're going to post some spoilers.

"Thanks to all the fans for their love and support.
"Nervosa will never die."

Diva Satanica has become the second member of the "Perpetual Chaos" album lineup to leave the band, following the departure of drummer Eleni Nota, whose replacement, Nanu Villalba, has also parted ways with the band since her recruitment.
