OVERKILL's Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth On THE CURSED Project...

KNAC.com spoke with OVERKILL frontman Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth about his new project THE CURSED, that also features former HADES guitarist Dan Lorenzo (along with bassist Job The Raver and drummer Mike Cristi). The band's debut album, Room Full Of Sinners, will be available on June 26th via Locomotive Records/Screaming Ferret Wreckords.

"For the first time in my life, I was able to write lyrics about the softer sex," says the legendary singer. "I don't think I have written a song about a woman in Overkill. I found out The Cursed have written eight songs on my perspective on the way I feel in different ways and what I have witnessed. So it really becomes in all senses, fresh material for me. The lyrical content, the subject matter, the approach to the singing, the type of songs that I am singing, too are much more melodic and just a hell of a lot of fun. It still has that dirty, don't play it for your mother kind of feel, behind the presentation of the record. The Cursed has been a lot of fun for me."
