Heh.
Yahh, it went a little something like that, just a couple different words.

That album that song came from “Under the Influence” was by far one of their weakest efforts.
I remember the video for that song was kind of bizarre. It was like Bobby Gustafson was doing a little tongue in cheek tribute to James with the white explorer.
I’d rank Overkill’s album “Taking Over” and especially “The years of decay” as easily some of the the best trash metal albums of all time. Albums’s like Peace sells by Megadeth, Bonded by blood - Exodus, Testement - Practice what you preach, Anthrax - Among the Living, Slayer - Reign in blood. And all the metallica albums from the 1980’s.
Don’t get me started..... ;) Ahhh...the memories.....

I think I saw Overkill in concert opening up for Motorhead in the late 80s. I can’t remember. Testament was great. Never got into Exodus. Megadeth’s first two albums were really good then they went downhill. Scott Ian and all his side projects (SOD, MOD, etc..) were way cool. Reign in Blood is still probably the hardest album ever... even though it was only about 10 minutes long.

I loved “Reign in Blood”, a very fine album but “Hell Awaits”, pound for pound, smacked the shit out of most albums I’ve heard then and heard since.
