SOLO: Edward Carlson

Star of David ripped to shreds,
Holocaust, twelve-million dead,
Der Fuhrer and his master race.
Red, white, and black flies everywhere,
so much power, world beware, Hitler to rule the earth.
Swastika, horrid miscreation, in the camps of concentration,
God's chosen in that Nazi hell.

REPEAT CHORUS
SOLO: E.C.

Allied forces go to war, bloody battles by the score,
London, Paris, many more.
Air raid sirens screaming loud,

So much pain and misery, far away across the sea.

FIGHTING FIRE WITH FIRE
-----------------------

Bernard Doe Talks to OVERKILL Drummer 'RAT' SKATES
Taken Exclusively from Metal Forces Magazine for MBI.

-----------
BD=Bernard Doe
OK=OVERKILL (Rat Skates)
------------

One of the first bands to benefit from Megaforce Records recent
affiliation with Atlantic Records will be New Jersey's OVERKILL who release
their new album entitled "Taking Over" in February.

OVERKILL have been in existence for around five years now and were formed
by drummer 'Rat' Skates and bassist D.D. Verni after they split from a
hardcore band called the LUBRICUNTS. They quickly hooked up with vocalist
Bobby 'Blitz' Ellsworth together with two guitarists and started out playing
the local clubs. Back then OVERKILL's live set consisted of mainly MAIDEN,
PRIEST, and SABBATH covers, but in 1983, after a number of guitarists had
come and gone, the band recruited axeman Bobby Gustafson and recorded a demo
entitled "Power in Black" which gained the band a strong underground following
and a lot of interest from HM independent labels.

In 1984 OVERKILL had tracks featured on the "Metal Massacre V" and
"New York Metal '84" compilation albums. Then in July '85 released a four
track EP "Overkill" on Azra Records. Soon after the EP's release OVERKILL
were snapped up by Megaforce Records for whom they released their debut
album "Feel the Fire" towards the end of '85. The album was later released
in Europe by Noise International.

So with much of the history lesson out of the way lets get the views
of 'Rat' Skates, who I recently spoke to, prior to the bands U.S. tour
supporting SLAYER.

BD: First of all 'Rat' why did the guys from OVERKILL change their
musical direction from punk to metal?

OK: "Well we all grew up listening to the same kind of music. Bands like
the SEX PISTOLS and THE DEAD BOYS were really happening at the time
and we were very into it and also the stuff was easy to play. But then
as we learned to play our instruments better we wanted to progress
musically so we went on to the more metal stuff. That punk attitude
though has never left the band."

BD: How did you get your first record deal with Azra?

OK: "At the time we were just hungry to get a record deal out and we just
jumped at the first thing that came along. Dave Richards from Azra
rang us up with, what to us, seemed like a good deal, but we didn't have
a lawyer and we ended up signing a terrible contract and we feel we were
ripped off in every way possible. Really it's something we want to
forget about - it was just a very bad experience."

BD: Well soon after your EP came out you hooked up with Megaforce. How did
they get involved?

OK: "Well Johnny Z from Megaforce had known about us for years, even before
he started up his record label. We had a demo out entitled "Power in
Black" which we sold over 1,500 copies of just through his record store
(Rock'N'Roll Heaven) amd this demo was selling better than any album in
his store. So he had always been keeping an eye on us. Then about 2
years ago we did a show with ANVIL at L'amour in Brooklyn and Johnny
came down and that was it; that was the show that convinced him he
should sign us. Ever since then, it's been great; Johnny Z is a great
guy and Megaforce is a great label, and we've only got good things to
say about them."

BD: So you're happy with your debut album "Feel the Fire"?

OK: "Well we're happy to a point, seeing as it was our first album, and you
always learn a lot when your recording your first album. But we're not
happy with the production. It really wasn't anyones fault, it was more
of a learning experience and we had a lot of equipment problems. But
for the next album we've produced it ourselves and we've spent as much
time as we needed to get the exact sound we wanted. Also the songs are
a lot better."

BD: Earlier this year you came over and toured Europe with ANTHRAX. How
did that go from your point of view?

OK: "Oh fantastic - it was a great tour. ANTHRAX are great guys and all the
shows were really great for us. Unfortunately because of the expense
we couldn't take our whole stage show to Europe, but we really love
it over there and hopefully we're going back early next year."

BD: Were you disappointed that you didn't get a chance to play any gigs in
the UK at all? Especially as ANTHRAX managed to come over and play
the Hammersmith Palais before they returned to the States from that
tour.

OK: "Yeah we were disappointed, and we all very much wanna play in England
so hopefully we'll make it over there next time."

BD: Metal Hammer have just released a compilation video, featuring OVERKILL
along with ANTHRAX and AGENT STEEL, filmed during one of the shows in
Germany. But I understand there are plans to release a seperate video
featuring virtually your whole show from that gig. What's the situation
on this?

OK: "Yeah, the show we did in Bochum was video taped and lasts about fifty
minutes and really shows what the band's all about."

BD: But wouldn't it have been better to video a show, maybe in New York,
where you had your whole stage set-up to give an even better impression?

OK: "Well I think we're gonna be doing that as well but for the time being
this is gonna be our first video and it will give the people a taster of
what we're like live. Over here we're gonna call it 'Escape from
Stalag 13'. I don't know if you've seen those 'Hogan's Heroes' shows?
Well this video has a lot of 'Hogan's Heroes' type bits in it and it's
gonna be a kinda goof on that show."

BD: Now about your upcoming tour with SLAYER. Aren't you worried that
SLAYER's crowd might get violent towards you? I've heard that a lot of
bands refuse to play on the same bill as SLAYER?

OK: "No, we're not worried about SLAYER's crowd at all - I'm sure they'll
like us. Also I think we will have our own audience as well; kids who
are there just to see OVERKILL and not SLAYER. But I don't anticipate
any problems."

BD: So what about your new album?

OK: "Well the album's gonna be entitled "Taking Over" and the new songs are
much stronger and more like "Hammerhead" and "Rotten to the Core" which
people seem to like. We're not a thrash band and we don't play
everything at 900mph just for the sake of playing fast - we play at
whatever speed is comfortable. Some of the stuff might be a little
slower, but sometimes slower stuff can be heavier like BLACK SABBATH."

BD: I've noticed that a lot of magazines have been labelling you as a
"THRASH" band, which of course you're not, does the "THRASH" tag worry
you?

OK: "Yes, I guess it does, because we're NOT a thrash band. We're OVERKILL
and what you hear is us. I think we're a very powerful metal band and,
as I said, we don't play fast for the sake of it, we do what we think
is comfortable and play what WE want to play and that's that! I dont
really like labels, especially this "DEATH METAL" thing which is
rediculous - it's just a bunch of bullshit - the same with the satanic
stuff. I guess when you're young it's great to do that because Satan
and all that is a heavy subject, but who needs that? Really they're
playing with fire and I think they should just drop that because there
is such a lot of over things that they could write lyrics about."

BD CLOSING UP:

Well, as I write, the OVERKILL/SLAYER tour is well underway and by all
accounts OVERKILL are being very well received. As I said earlier, the
"Taking Over" album is due to hit the record stores in late February, after
which we'll hopefully see the band return to Europe for some live shows.
If you got burnt by "Feel the Fire" then believe me you'll have your face
totally melted by OVERKILL the second time around!

------------------------------------------------------------

For a good Plastique mixture try this.....
Mix 96% Potassium Chlorate with 4% fuel oil.

For Nitrogen Triiodide try this....
Mix 1 pint laundry ammonium with 4 ounces Drug store Iodine.
Shake well for 5 minutes and then pour through a coffee filter.
Drain liquid and use the RED MUD at the bottom.
WARNING! If and when this stuff dries, it blows.
Sound will set it off!
Try spreading some of this on a door at school!

Pepto Bismo bomb
================

If someone you know has a swimming pool, an enemy of course, then take
a zip-lock bag and fill it with Pepto-Bismol and close it up tight.
When you get to the pool open up the bag about 1/2 inch in the middle
and toss it into the pool, the impact will open the bag fully and the
rest of the Pepto-Bismol will empty into the pool.
Now you're probably saying "So what, you just get pink water!"
W R O N G
Chlorine and Pepto-Bismol dont get along too well when mixed and it will
turn the water green and the sides of the pool green as well and the only
way to get the green off is to drain the pool and scrub it off!
Also try it when your enemy(s) are in the pool and see if they turn
green too!

[Explosive Arrows from Wasted Wizard]

Find someone you know with a bow and talk him into letting you use it
and one or more of the arrows (or use your own if you have'm)...Find
yourself a bullet and tape 3 metal rods around it (or something that
wont break to support the bullet) and tape the rods to the tip of the
arrow and the bullet to the tip of the rods...then just fire away and
watch some neat light shows..

[Cause Total Blindness by The Exterminator]

Mix some HEET (get it at the store) into the punch at the school dance
or slip some into your enemy's Coke. This stuff contains Methanol
alcohol and glycol. In small quantities, it destroys the optic nerve
in the body and causes blindness. (pretty nasty eh? -ed.) Then your
school will have to add a braile course!! Large quantities will naturally
induce death. HEET is an anti-freeze which is colorless and odorless
and it mixes real good!

[ Homemade Mace ]

Mix in a glass container the following:
1) Fill the container with 1/3 cup water
2) Throw about 1 tsp. of ammonia in there and mix thouroughly.
3) Get ahold of some Phenolpthalein solution through a scholastic
supply store and put a few drops of that in. Shake mixture up good.
4) Add about 1 tsp. of white vinegar in and shake until clear.
5) This produces ammonium acetate which is about 5 times as strong as
table salt--- an advanced form of MACE. It works great in a spray
canister!
The Phenolphthalein solution can be obtained very inexpensively at this
place. Call and ask for an order sheet/catalog. 414/633-2431

[ More school Fun]

1) Locate your victim's locker in school and lay low for a while.
After you have got his basic daily routine down and when he's at
his locker, you have a choice of two things:
a) You can get some black enamel paint and paint over the dial on
the combination lock so he can't see the numbers to dial the
combo.
b) Get some super glue or stuff called 'lock-tight' which seals
metal surfaces together forever. Put a little of this on his
dial and shackle and he won't be getting in for a while..oh and
dont for the hinges!! He's fucked!!
