Overkill -- Philadelphia, PA -- April 20th 2012

[Aranhasband]

First post! Was so annoyed by the lack of OVERKILL sets, I registered just to post the opening night of The Electric Age tour. I wasn't planning on putting this setlist online so be forewarned, the setlist is not in order, although I'm fairly certain the first three songs and end of the set is correct.

Come and Get It
Bring Me The Night
Elimination
Electric Rattlesnake
Hello From the Gutter
Iron Bound
It Lives
Gasoline Dream
Wish You Were Dead
Necroshine
Wrecking Crew
Old School

ENCORE:
DENY THE CROSS
Rotten to the Core
FUCK YOU

I'm pretty sure that's everything and I'm sure I mixed the order of the set up a bit. The "classics" seemed like predictable choices (I'm so tired of Elimination, I wish they'd play more from The Years of Decay), was bummed they ignored Horrorscope but DENY THE CROSS sounded great! New shit sounded great and Blitz lived up to my perception as one of metal's most underrated frontmen!

Welcome!

Really bummed that I can't make this on Wednesday. Been wanting to see Overkill for awhile now and I was pretty impressed with the new album.

Cool 1st post. Yeah I wish they would drop Elimination, Rotten and Gutter forever. Not playing All over but the shouting or Good Night from the new one sucks.

They seriously need to bring Skullkrusher back even as a medley with Evil never Dies or something. That would RULE!

That being said Deny the Cross is almost worth the price of admission alone...

Are you sure you're not missing one song? Overkill headline sets are almost always 16 songs long, and usually include at least one song from Horrorscope. This is a cool set I suppose though, I'm happy to see they're keeping Bring Me the Night and Ironbound. Gasoline Dream is a neat deep cut, but it already got played on the last tour. And if they're gonna play a song from From the Underground and Below, play Long Time Dyin' instead of It Lives dammit!

With all that in consideration, this is still probably an amazing set just because it's live Overkill. And they're playing Deny the Cross!!! Now I'm even more sad that a midterm is preventing me from going.

It's entirely conceivable that I missed a song. I'm positive there wasn't a song from Horrorscope, I thought it was strange they would skip that album. I wish they would do a better job of choosing deeper cuts. As cool as Deny the Cross was, I've seen them do it before (granted, I've been seeing Overkill shows for a long time!).

Def needs All Over But The Shouting Now. That song is easily the best off the record.

I may just go to my date after all (I was debating, since the security at the venue they're playing at are assholes, God Forbid exists, and if it moves to the Beauty Ballroom like DRI did, I'm fucked).

This.

Someone just posted the set from the Ohio show. Save Yourself was the missing song. I knew if I forgot a song it would be one from the new album!
