Onslaught is a British thrash metal band that was formed in Bristol, England, in 1982. They are known for their aggressive sound, socially conscious lyrics, and high-energy live performances. Over the years, the band has experienced numerous lineup changes, but they have consistently maintained a reputation as one of the UK's most important thrash metal acts.
Early Years
Onslaught was formed in 1982 by guitarist Nige Rockett and drummer Steve Grice. The original lineup also included vocalist Jase Stallard and bassist Paul Hill. The band's early sound was heavily influenced by the Bay Area thrash metal scene, which was then in its infancy. Onslaught's first release was the 1983 demo, "What Lies Ahead," which helped establish the band's reputation as a formidable live act.
In 1985, Onslaught released their debut album, "Power From Hell," which was an instant classic of the thrash metal genre. The album showcased the band's raw, aggressive sound and socially conscious lyrics. "Power From Hell" was followed by the equally well-received "The Force" in 1986, which helped solidify Onslaught's position as one of the UK's premier thrash metal acts.
Lineup Changes and Hiatus
Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Onslaught experienced numerous lineup changes, with Rockett and Grice being the only consistent members. In 1989, the band released their third album, "In Search of Sanity," which featured a more polished sound and a greater emphasis on melody. The album received mixed reviews and failed to achieve the commercial success of their previous releases.
Following the release of "In Search of Sanity," Onslaught went on hiatus, with Rockett and Grice pursuing other musical projects. In 2004, the band reformed with a new lineup and released the album "Killing Peace," which was well-received by fans and critics alike.
Recent Years
Since their reunion in 2004, Onslaught has released four additional albums: "Sounds of Violence" (2011), "VI" (2013), "Live at the Slaughterhouse" (2016), and "Generation Antichrist" (2020). These albums have been praised for their return to the band's roots, with a focus on raw aggression and socially conscious lyrics.
Onslaught has also maintained a busy touring schedule, with appearances at major metal festivals around the world, including Wacken Open Air and Bloodstock Open Air. The band's live shows are known for their high-energy performances and passionate audience.
