Engel at TEMPLE OF DISHARMONY in August 2018. Following 1985’s classic »Power From Hell« (originally issued by Children Of The Revolution Records and recently re-released by High Roller Records), »The Force« (recorded at Matrix studios in London in early 1986) was even more successful than the band’s debut album. Compared to »Power From Hell« with its leanings towards early death metal, »The Force« was an altogether different beast. Thrash metal songs like “Let There Be Death”, “Contract In Blood” and “Fight With The Beast” were much more complex than anything on the first album. The new style was also at least partly due to Sky Keeler having joined Onslaught as the band’s new vocalist. His slightly more melodic approach to songs such as “Metal Forces” (a tribute to the London-based metallic underground magazine of the same name) made the Bristolians also appeal to fans of the first two Metallica albums. Produced and engineered by Dave Pine and mixed by Roy Rowland, »The Force« received excellent reviews in the English press (as well as in European magazines such as Rock Hard and fanzines like Iron Pages). Although formed in 1982 and deeply routed in the UK hardcore and punk scenes, Onslaught went on to become one of the main protagonists of the late 1980’s UK thrash metal movement (along with bands such as Acid Reign, Re-Animator, Slammer and Xentrix). When ex-Grim Reaper vocalist Steve Grimmett joined the band for the follow-up album »In Search Of Sanity«, Onslaught gained a major deal. »The Force« was originally released by Music For Nations sublabel Under One Flag in 1986 and has been out of print for a long time. Onslaught have been playing »The Force« in its entirety on their recent »Full Force« anniversary tour. Matthias Mader Onslaught is a British thrash metal band formed in Bristol, England, in 1982. Initially inspired by the punk movement, Onslaught quickly evolved into one of the UK's premier thrash metal acts. The band is known for their aggressive and high-energy style, combining fast, intricate guitar riffs, powerful vocals, and intense drumming. Onslaught's music often features themes of social issues, warfare, and anti-religious sentiments. They have built a solid reputation within the thrash metal community for their uncompromising sound and dynamic live performances. Notable Work and ImpactOnslaught released their debut album, "Power from Hell," in 1985, which is considered a seminal work in the thrash metal genre. The album is known for its raw and unpolished sound, capturing the intensity and aggression of early thrash metal. Key tracks from the album include: "Power from Hell" - The title track that exemplifies the band's raw energy and fast-paced riffing."The Devil's Legion" - A powerful and aggressive song with intense vocals and relentless guitar work."Death Metal" - A track that highlights the band's ability to blend thrash metal with early death metal influences.Onslaught continued to develop their sound with subsequent releases such as "The Force" (1986) and "In Search of Sanity" (1989), solidifying their place in the thrash metal pantheon. After a hiatus, the band reformed in the mid-2000s and has continued to release music and tour, maintaining their status as one of the enduring acts in thrash metal. 50 Similar ArtistsSlayerExodusTestamentKreatorSodomDestructionDark AngelOverkillAnthraxMegadethMetallicaNuclear AssaultVio-LenceSacred ReichRazorSadusForbiddenDeath AngelAnnihilatorTankardArtilleryWhiplashHiraxExumerHeathenDemolition HammerRigor MortisLaaz RockitMorbid SaintFlotsam and JetsamPossessedProtectorHoly MosesAssassinInfernal MajestyCycloneDestructorBlood FeastDevastationAtrophyToxikEvildeadExhorderXentrixGama BombWarbringerHavokPower TripMunicipal WasteSkeletonwitch
