ONSLAUGHT Guitarist Talks To RockEyez About New Album (Audio)

September 27, 2013

RockEyez recently conducted an interview with guitarist Nige Rockett of British thrashers ONSLAUGHT. You can now listen to the chat in the YouTube clip below.

ONSLAUGHT's sixth album, "VI", was released on September 20 via AFM Records. The follow-up to 2011's "Sounds Of Violence" was mixed by Thomas "Plec" Johansson (TIAMAT, SCAR SYMMETRY) at Panic Room studios in Skara, Sweden.

Comments Rockett: "The new album, 'VI', has exceeded all our expectations, by a long long way!! We really pushed ourselves to the limits in making this record and I think that truly shines through in the final results.

"'VI' is the most brutal and technical album ONSLAUGHT has ever made, no question. It's old school, it's contemporary and it's fucking aggressive in the extreme, with a few big surprises thrown in for good measure!

"We've gone about the whole album-making process with a completely different approach and mindset this time around, ranging from the artwork (by Pär Olofsson) through to the final mixes with Thomas Johansson, who I must single out for mention along with our drummer Michael Hourihan for really upping the ante in the ass-kicking stakes!

"We're feeling kind of proud right now and pretty confident the fans are gonna dig it too!"

"VI" track listing:

01. A New World Order
02. Chaos Is King
03. Fuel For My Fire
04. Children Of The Sand
05. Slaughterize
06. 66 Fucking 6
07. Cruci-Fiction
08. Dead Man Walking
09. Enemy Of My Enemy

A bonus track on the limited digipak and 2LP vinyl will be a re-recorded version of "Shellshock" (taken from the 1989 album "In Search Of Sanity"),featuring legendary Japanese thrashers UNITED.
