I'm thinking of buying ReliXIV and/or Killbox 13 sometime. Recommended? |

Do NOT buy ReliXIV. Buy Killbox 13 and forget that ReliXIV exists at all. |

If you are a big Overkill fan and want to complete the collection, then try to find them 2nd hand |

Just buy Killbox 13- a very good album. Relix IV has two good songs, so if you find it for VERY cheap, then I guess buy it. |

Have listened to just Killbox and that's a very good album. It stayed in my player for days right from the very first listen. Not something common with most albums I pick up. |

You seem pretty open-minded, so get them both. I liked them both. No, it's not Thrash, nor is it classic Kill, but they're still good albums. Killbox 13 is the better of the two. |

No, never!!!!!1 BOTH of those albums SUCK so BAD!!!!1 They are the worst pieces of shite that Overkill has ever released (yes, I Hear Black is twice as good as any of these)! Since couple of their later albums I have wished they would have just disbanded coz they obviously can't pull out a decent album anymore :evil: What they put out is still metal yes, and they haven't soldout, but it's just BORING, unimaginitive and un-ripping as hell! But I believe I actually know a reason for this: for a long time it's been just Verni and Ellsworth doing ALL the songs. Back in '94 when they still had kickass guitar team, I think they were participating in the songwriting as well (or that's what I like to believe...) The point is: because of this "closed" writing team the input of fresh, exciting ideas is ZERO! They'd need to include other members' writing skills too! :? And this comes from over 10 years of being a fan. |

I agree, but it comes from only say 6 months as a fan in my case. :( Necroshine is the best of the 'new' Overkill albums that i've heard. |

Necroshine is good, though. Here I disagree a bit: I remember From the Underground and Below having many good, moshable songs. Though I don't remember how solid the album was nor how many bad(?) songs there were... Necroshine I do remember being relatively solid and better than the crap afterwards, but that's about it... I know, it's been quite a while since I listened to the Overkill back catalogue (or any other of my older acquaintances) but I have gazillion CDs to listen to... |

If Killbox is worse than From Underground,than i'llstay away from it? BTW how is The Killing Kind,compared to the other albums? |

Uh, Killbox 13 is very much the same "quality" as ReliXIV, meaning A LOT worse than FTUAB!!! The Killing Kind was the beginning of the end, and to me my most hated Overkill album for years :evil: ...until now of course  Actually The Killing Kind has some "actual moments" making it not as bad as the recent two abominations. But it's still the 3rd worst! :twisted:
I say this: after getting totally slayed with W.F.O., The Killing Kind was like getting Loaded with Metallica... :( (*and if someone didn't get my twist of words: I meant the change in style and sound) |
