Bobby ’Blitz’ Ellsworth from Overkill
In this exclusive interview with Blitz from Overkill, we delve into the band's latest album, "Scorched," which is their 20th and continues their impressive run of form since "White Devil Armory." Blitz shares that he believes this album is their best in a number of years and talks about the recording process, which took place during COVID lockdowns. We also get some insight into the music itself, including the impressive solos performed by Dave and Derek, with the one in "Scorched" being a standout. The album's production was handled by Colin Richardson, who did an excellent job. Blitz also discusses the lyrical themes of "Scorched" and shares some of his personal favourites from the album. But we also get to hear about his least favourite Overkill album, and he even shares a crazy tour story. Blitz answers questions about the current state of affairs in the world, including the recent school shooting and the dominant narrative around the trans movement. He speaks candidly about the many issues facing the USA, from COVID hysteria and rising inflation to political scandals and international conflicts.
