Overload is Japanese heavy metal band Anthem's third studio album since their reformation in the year 2000.

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]
