Overkill announce European tour

OVERKILL have announced a European tour!

Titled the Killfest Tour, the tour will see the iconic American thrashers touring across mainland Europe and the UK in March next year in support of their upcoming, as untitled new studio album. Support for the tour will come from German thrashers DESTRUCTIONFLOTSAM & JETSAM and Australian thrash newcomers MESHIAAK.

Speaking about the tour, vocalist Bobby Blitz says, “ONE MORE FUCKING TIME! Let the the shit fall away and the metal rule the day. OVERKILL comes to Europe and the UK in March 2019 on the release of the new album. So get your necks ready boys and girls, it’s going to be dangerous!” Schmier from DESTRUCTION adds, “touring with some of the most influential American thrash icons is always a pleasure. We became good friends over all of those years, I’m happy we are ALL still around and we can thrash Europe and the UK together. Also some of the Australian boys from MESHIAAK have toured with us Down Under before with their predecessor band 4ARM. What an intense family-reunion…hahaha! This is undoubtedly a killer package for the enthusiastic European metal fans – we will present DESTRUCTION in fantastic form and with a terrific new drummer!”
