OVERKILL Recruits Ex FEAR FACTORY Bassist CHRISTIAN OLDE WOLBERS For March / April 2026 Tour

Описание: #overkill #tour #bassist

Ex-FEAR FACTORY bassist Christian Olde Wolbers will once again fill in for OVERKILL bassist D.D. Verni on the New Jersey thrash metal veterans' upcoming U.S. tour as the support act for TESTAMENT. Additional support on the "Thrash Of The Titans" trek, which will launch in March, will come from German thrashers DESTRUCTION.

Olde Wolbers shared an admat for the "Thrash Of The Titans" tour and he included the following message: "See you guys and gals out there on the 'Thrash Of The Titans' Tour!"

Olde Wolbers previously filled in for Verni — who is dealing with an ongoing "shoulder issue" — in the fall of 2024 when OVERKILL supported KING DIAMOND on a North American tour.

For some of its European shows in September 2024, OVERKILL recruited ex-KREATOR bassist Christian "Speesy" Giesler as a temporary replacement for Verni.

In a 2024 interview with Portugal's Caminhos Metálicos, OVERKILL frontman Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth addressed Verni's physical ailment, saying: "D.D.'s got a shoulder issue that's been going on for this entire time, even back to [2019's] 'The Wings Of War' [album], it was beginning back then. So I think that the amount of shows that we did was actually a light amount. We would normally do more shows, if he was healthy enough to do them. And he's gotta rehab that shoulder, so he can only do so much, put so much stress on it."
