Leading the charge is the newly recorded version of **‘Thermonuclear Devastation Of The Planet Earth’** – a scorched-earth anthem packed with apocalyptic riffage. First appearing on the band’s debut album ***Power From Hell*****,** released in 1985, the track has been re-recorded for ***Origins Of Aggression*** to mark the 40th anniversary of **ONSLAUGHT**’s explosive entry into the metal scene. Four decades later, its message feels just as urgent and relevant as it did back then – if not more so. **Nige Rockett** comments: *“‘Thermo…’ is the very first song myself and Paul Hill ever wrote for ONSLAUGHT when we formed the band in 1982 and it’s still a very important / integral part of the live show right up to this day as it never fails to induce complete chaos within the crowds. One real highlight I remember was performing it at the Katacombes [R.I.P.] venue in Montreal, Canada. I kid you not, every single person in the venue turned the place into one awesome / brutal circle pit, it was absolutely insane. We still get one massive buzz playing this song live, it has such an incredible energy and a very cool back story to go with it…!”* ***Origins Of Aggression*** is a 22-track double album that dives deep into **ONSLAUGHT**’s history, delivering fierce new takes on early classics alongside covers of key influences such as **MOTÖRHEAD**, **DEAD KENNEDYS**, and **DISCHARGE**. To support the release, **ONSLAUGHT** will hit the road again next week as part of a global tour, with confirmed dates across Europe, the UK, Mexico, and Australia.
