Overload is tenth studio album by the Japanese heavy metal band Anthem, released on October 9, 2002. The album has been considered by most critics[who?] to be much more aggressive than their previous album, Seven Hills. This direction of blending both new and old styles into their own musical style became the force for their future releases.[1] It debuted at No. 40 on the Oricon Weekly Albums Chart.[2]
