System Overload is the first album released by Dutch After Forever guitarist Sander Gommans's side project HDK (Hate, Death, Kill).[2] The music of this album is heavier and more extreme than the usual style of After Forever and Gommans created HDK in order to release the album by himself.[3] The album was released on 23 February 2009 on the Label Season of Mist.[4] The many guest musicians involved in the making of this album produced and recorded their parts separately in various recording studios, following basic tracks provided by Gommans.
