Gli Overkill sono una band thrash metal statunitense fondata nel 1980 nel New Jersey dal bassista D.D.Verni e dal simger Bobby Ellsworth,

La band,molto attiva discograficamente sin dal 1984,divenne rapidamente uno dei gruppi più rappresentativi della scena thrash metal.Tra la fine degli anni '80 e i primi '90 la band trovò il suo maggior successo con gli album The Years of Decay e Horrorscope.

Gli Overkill hanno avuto molti cambi di formazione;Solo il cantante Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth e il bassista D.D.Verni sono rimasti membri fissi sin dall'inizio

La band ha anche una mascotte chiamata "Chaly",un teschio minaccioso con ali ossute di pipistrello, mentre il verde fluorescente è il colore che li rappresenta.
L'ultimo album uscito nel 2023 si chiama"Scorched" che riconferma l'ottimo stato di forma della band
