Overkill – Discography (1985-2017)

Overkill - Discography (1985-2017)

An integral part of the early 1980s thrash metal movement, New Jersey quartet Overkill were formed in 1980 by vocalist Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth and guitarist Bobby Gustafson, and also included bassist D.D. Verni and drummer Rat Skates (later replaced by Sid Falck). The band garnered a reputation for brutal, pounding speed and technique, but lacked the musical diversity to compete with heavy hitters like Metallica; still, Overkill built up a strong following in the metal underground with albums like 1985’s Taking Over and 1988’s Under the Influence. Gustafson quit in 1989 following the Years of Decay album Continue reading “Overkill – Discography (1985-2017)”

Uriah Heep - Discography (1970 - 2015)

Uriah Heep’s by-the-books progressive heavy metal made the British band one of the most popular hard rock groups of the early ’70s. Formed by vocalist David Byron and guitarist Mick Box in the late ’60s, the group went through an astonishing number of members over the next two decades — nearly 30 different musicians passed through the band over the years.

Killing Machine (known as Hell Bent for Leather in the U.S. due to controversy at the time of its release) is the fifth studio album by British heavy metal band Judas Priest. With its release in October 1978, the album pushed the band towards a more commercial style; however, it still contained the dark lyrical themes of their previous albums.

Manowar – Discography (1982 – 2014)

Manowar - Discography (1982 - 2014)

One of the most internationally successful bands in all of heavy metaldom, Auburn, New York-born power metal outfit Manowar — Eric Adams (vocals), Karl Logan (guitars), Joey DeMaio (bass), and Donnie Hamzik (drums) — have sold over nine million records since their inception in 1980. Steeped in the pageantry of heavy metal, the group’s approach was designed to be the raw, primal, Viking antithesis of classic rock, and their music followed suit, based on raw, aggressive riffs, with lyrics that were mostly about fighting, violence, honor, and death.
