History & Biography
San Jose, Costa Rica-based thrash metal group Chemicide existed under another name for two years before becoming Chemicide in 2008. Radioactive Annihilation was a 2011 demo. The band also included this demo with the Conqueror demo as a split tape in 2011. A 2015 demo was called Episodes Of Insanity, which inevitably was re-issued by PRC Music in 2016. The Act Of Retaliation (with Jairo on drums) was also re-issued by the same label. The band toured Canada. Nash Blast left the band, returned in 2018 and again left in 2020. Inequality was also supported through shows in Canada and Mexico. Several new labels were called into action for Common Sense given the demise of PRC. Palo was on bass and vocals. Luis Fer was on drums. Martin Furia of Destruction mixed and mastered the record. The second and third records were the subject of a rerelease in 2023. Overkill appeared on stage at Colombia's Rock Al Parque Festival alongside Konvent, In Flames, Chemicide and others in the autumn of 2023.

Palo left in 2024. Listenable Records signed a multi-album deal with Costa Rica-based Chemicide for the band’s next recordings in 2024 and was also reissuing the band’s previous albums. An album called Violence Prevails was scheduled for early 2025. There was a video for the song Violence Prevails.
