Genres

System Overload came together in the Spring of 2003. Each member shared the vision of creating their own unique brand of Rock music combining each members influences ranging from 80's icons Ozzy Osbourne to today's new wave of American heavy metal Killswitch Engage.

System Overload's sound incorporates melodic vocals pierced with screeching screams backed by howling guitar solos and crunchy riffs.

In their short 3 year existance, System Overload has stormed onto the Texas rock scene selling out clubs in Dallas/Ft. Worth Texas and playing all over the state. In this short amount of time the band has opened for a diverse group of national rock acts ranging from Hardcore metal acts such as Dry Kill Logic, Six Feet Under, & Full Blown Chaos, to more melodic acts such as Nonpoint, Switched, Silent Civilian, Puya, Allele, Five Bolt Main & Element 80.

System Overload released their first EP "From the Shadows" in the summer of 2005 to rave reviews which since has gone on to sell over 1000 copies and still going.

With a new full length album in the works, a clothing sponsorship with Maryland based Real Clothing Co., and extensive touring being setup, the future looks bright for this young Texas 5-piece out to do nothing more than share their unique brand of rock music with the masses.
