Album
White Devil Armory
White Devil Armory is the seventeenth studio album by the thrash metal band Overkill, released in July 2014. It came out through Nuclear Blast in Europe and through eOne Music in North America, a few days after the European date.
The record follows The Electric Age from 2012 and sits in the middle of a long run of albums that began with Feel the Fire in 1985. It was followed by The Grinding Wheel in 2017. For anyone tracing how Overkill kept up a steady pace of releases through the 2010s, this is the album that links those chapters, and a good place to hear the band's thrash approach at that stage of their career.
