Get ready for a legendary metal tour that will shake North America to its core! ONSLAUGHT, the iconic U.K. thrash metal band, is storming across the continent in March and April 2026, and they're bringing the heat with their classic lineup! But here's the twist: they're sharing the stage with none other than WARLORD, the cult metal legends who have never toured their home country before.
ONSLAUGHT's Return to North America:
The mighty ONSLAUGHT is ready to unleash their signature brand of extreme thrash metal on North American audiences, starting in March. With a set heavily inspired by their groundbreaking albums, 'Power From Hell' and 'The Force', they promise a nostalgic yet ferocious experience. And with the iconic Sy Keeler back on vocals, fans can expect a celebration of the band's entire career, including neck-breaking classics from his era.
WARLORD's Long-Awaited North American Debut:
In a surprising turn of events, WARLORD, despite their long history, has never toured North America. But that's about to change! This tour marks their first-ever journey across the continent, performing their seminal album 'Deliver Us' in full, along with other classic tracks. A special treat for fans who have been waiting decades to see them live!
A Tour for the Ages:
The tour kicks off with a special performance at Hell's Heroes festival in Houston, Texas, and then hits major cities across the U.S. and Canada. ONSLAUGHT's guitarist, Nige Rockett, promises an epic setlist, ensuring fans won't miss out on this historic event. WARLORD's drummer, Mark Zonder, also hints at a set that would have been played decades ago, had they toured earlier.
A Brief History:
ONSLAUGHT, formed in 1982, has been a driving force in the thrash metal scene, influencing countless bands with their early albums. After a hiatus and reformation, they continue to thrive, with their recent reunion show in 2025 featuring Sy Keeler. WARLORD, on the other hand, emerged in 1981, creating epic metal masterpieces. Despite health challenges, they've maintained a dedicated following. Now, with a new lineup, they're ready to conquer North America.
