biographyD.D. Verni is an American bassist, songwriter, and producer, best knownfor his work with the band OVERKILL. Overkill released their first record in 1985 and with their contemporaries (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax) helped define a new genre of music, “thrash metal”. Overkill have released 18 full-length albums as well as two live albums and EPs, and several DVDs.
D.D. Verni released his first solo album, “Barricade”, in October of 2018. The record, which was mixed and mastered by Chris “Zeuss” Harris (ROB ZOMBIE, QUEENSRŸCHE, HATEBREED), is a mix of all of Verni’s influences. “There’s some metal, punk, and classic rock... it’s all in there, from QUEEN to GREEN DAY to METALLICA, I think we covered all the basses!” declares D.D.
The album also features a host of guitar players doing guest spots, including Jeff Loomis (ARCH ENEMY), Angus Clark (TRANS SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA), Jeff Waters (ANNIHILATOR), Bruce Franklin (TROUBLE), Mike Romeo (SYMPHONY X), Mike Orlando (ADRENALINE MOB), Steve Leonard (ALMOST QUEEN), and Andre “Virus” Karkos (DOPE), who also contributed the rhythm guitar tracks. Rounding out the recording line-up is former OVERKILL drummer Ron Lipnicki.“I’m psyched to get this disc out,” states Verni. “We had a lot of fun and a lot of great players contributed.”
