Onslaught Announce First Ever North American Tour!

Wake up North America... after three decades of waiting, British Thrash Metal masters Onslaught will cross the Atlantic for their first ever tour of the continent in March and April!

The 20-date trek gets underway in Seattle on March 19th and tramples its way across the continent ending in Brooklyn on April 7th. The band's exclusive set for the tour spans their full back catalog, including 'Power from Hell', 'The Force', 'In Search of Sanity', 'Killing Peace' and their lauded 2011 release 'Sounds of Violence'. Onslaught will have direct support from all ex-Venom supergroup M-pire Of Evil for the entire tour, as well as Evil Dead on a slew of the West Coast dates.

"Good Morning America... Here we are at very long last! Onslaught are super fucking stoked to announce our début tour of the mighty USofA and Canada. It's been one hell of a long time coming, but we are now finally bringing the Scream For Violence tour to North America for 20 shows in March and April 2012. Just as we did in Europe, the UK and South America, we'll be thrashing it up with a brutal 90-minute set featuring tracks off all five Onslaught studio albums. We can't fucking wait..." Onslaught guitarist Nige Rockett
