I got good news and bad news. Bad news first: Overkill just announced via their official FB that the new CD's release date has been pushed back to February of 2017. (Boooooo!)

The good news is that today they uploaded a 30 second sneaky peek of the new track "Our Finest Hour" to YouTube. So there's that.

And it looks like they're running a stateside tour in 2017! I know what I want for Christmas.

That tour needs to come to the Canadian Maritimes!

Well that little "snippet" sounds pretty decent and they usually hit up Pittsburgh but I'm not seeing any venue from there....yet. Fingers crossed.

I do have to say that Overkill, Nile, and Amorphis is a strange tour combination, however.

More news on the album : http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/overkill-the-grinding-wheel-album-details-revealed/

Legendary New Jersey thrashers OVERKILL will release their new studio album, titled "The Grinding Wheel", on February 19, 2017 via Nuclear Blast.

Comments OVERKILL frontman Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth: "Grinding on! Here we come again kids, strapped to the Grinding Wheel! Bang your head."

"The Grinding Wheel" was produced by OVERKILL and mixed by Andy Sneap (TESTAMENT, EXODUS, ACCEPT). The artwork was created again by Travis Smith (NEVERMORE, OPETH, SOILWORK, DEATH).

"The Grinding Wheel" track listing:

01. Mean Green Killing Machine
02. Goddamn Trouble
03. Our Finest Hour
04. Shine On
05. The Long Road
06. Let's All Go To Hades
07. Come Heavy
08. Red White And Blue
09. The Wheel
10. The Grinding Wheel

The official lyric video for "Our Finest Hour" can now be seen below.

Ellsworth recently told Patch.com about OVERKILL's decision to title its forthcoming album "The Grinding Wheel": "When we were looking for a title, when you think in terms of the word 'grind,' you think of something that is relentless and doesn't wear down, whether it be an old stone mill or something metallic where sparks are flying through it. It's about an all-purpose tool through all time. It's a good, quality OVERKILL record."

Regarding the musical direction of the follow-up to 2014's "White Devil Armory", Ellsworth told Alternative Nation: "At the end of the day, OVERKILL is OVERKILL. Our trademark is that we are always recognizable on every release. For the three decades we have been around, we were always OVERKILL. So, sure, it is a metal record, and like always, it will have sort of a thrash vibe to it with some melody in it."

As long as they have Blitz, they will always be "recognizable'. What they play now is not even close to what they used to play though. Not since 93 anyway.

They still write great songs though. That's what's important.
