Long-time thrash metal outfit, Overkill, released their 18th studio album, The Grinding Wheel, earlier this month.
Leading up to the album’s release, Overkill released the official video for “Goddamn Trouble,” and it’s like taking a step back in time. Not only does the track have a classic metal sound, but the video seems to idolize the ‘80s — from the cassette-playing Walkman to the graffiti to the video’s protagonist embodying the stereotype of a metalhead troublemaker. In many ways, that’s how metalheads were perceived back in the day, but now it seems like a dated mentality.
Maybe heavy metal needs to get back to this fire.
