Issuing 7 studio albums & 2 Live albums to date, Onslaught were originally formed in

1982 by Songwriter / Guitarist Nige Rockett and Paul Hill.

The band rapidly established themselves globally with a series of classic album

releases in the 1980s; ‘Power From Hell’ - 1985 / ‘The Force’ - 1986 / ‘In Search of

Sanity - 1989.

Renowned for writing neck breaking metal anthems such as Power From Hell / Metal

Forces / Killing Peace / 66’Fucking’6’ & Bow Down to the Clowns, Onslaughts’

songs still stand as ferocious mosh-pit inducing favourites across

generations of dedicated metal heads; A real testament to the

quality of music that Onslaught has constantly created throughout their long and illustrious career.

As an internationally recognised Heavy Metal powerhouse

Onslaught have played over 70 countries word-wide, from Lebanon

to Latvia, Argentina to China; Appearing at the most prestigious festivals on the

planet and performing countless global tours / shows with the likes of Motorhead,

Slayer, Venom, Anthrax & Behemoth, to name but a few. Building a truly dedicated

and loyal following since the band’s conception, fans were rewarded by seeing

Onslaught inducted into the prestigious ‘Metal Hall of Fame’ during their performance at the Maryland Death Fest in 2022. A fitting accolade for delivering over 4 decades of fury and aggression.

Onslaught have been honoured to feature 3 world class vocalists

over the years, each playing their own part in taking the band to new

levels of popularity; There was, of course Sy Keeler with The Force - 1986 / Killing

Peace – 2007 / Sounds of Violence - 2011 & VI - 2013, with the legendary tones of

Steve Grimmett gracing the 1989 release; In Search of Sanity.

However, as the current Onslaught vocalist, Dave Garnet brings a whole new level of

energy and brutality to the band’s demeanour, receiving huge plaudits for his

performance on the critically acclaimed 2020 album, ‘Generation

Antichrist.’ As the ever-present guitarist and founding member, Nige Rockett anchors

the band as their irrefutably brutal riff machine…and by his own admission is sworn

to make every new Onslaught record sound more violent and relentless than the last!

The long-standing bastion of the Bass, Jeff Williams with his distinctive, thunderous

and hellish low end, pulls the whole wall of sound together, laying down sturdy

foundations along with the dynamic and incendiary drumming of James

Perry. James joined the ranks of Onslaught in 2018, the same year that lead guitarist

Wayne Dorman came on board. Their addition has brought a surge of new energy

and intensity to the band, giving Onslaught the complete freedom to create extreme

music like never before. This was evidently witnessed on the band’s 2020 release,

‘Generation Antichrist’, arguably the most successful Onslaught album to date,

making great chart positions in all the major territories and hitting No1 in the US Indie

/ college charts.

Onslaught tracks from the early years, while Disc 2 consists of punk and metal cover

versions that shaped Onslaught into the band they are today…Songs that were

jammed at rehearsal, songs that inspired the band to pick up an instrument and play.

It’s a fascinating sonic journey about how the band came into existence. As

Onslaught approach yet another year of thrash metal history making, the band are

gearing up for the 2025 world tour to promote Origins of Aggression and the anniversary landmark.

This is a very exciting new chapter for everyone involved in the Onslaught camp,

with more news, more releases, more tours and more important shows to come!

See You in the Pit!
