ONSLAUGHT Release Thrashed-Up Version Of MOTORHEAD's "Iron Fist" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Friday, March 28, 2025 @ 6:12 AM
Also to be found on the second part of the album will be ONSLAUGHT's adaption of "Iron Fist", originally written and performed by MOTORHEAD, which is the first single off the forthcoming effort.
"What true metalhead doesn't love MOTORHEAD? And we weren't any different. In the early beginnings, I was still very much a novice on guitar and it was Lemmy, Phil, and Eddie that really drove our band in the metal direction from our hardcore punk roots. Myself, I actually learnt the whole Live At Hammersmith album - including all the solos - and it greatly improved my personal playing and knowledge of the guitar, it was a real learning curve for ONSLAUGHT and we would always jam the tracks at rehearsal and even sometimes live. So, the reason we chose "Iron Fist", apart from it being one of their heaviest, most aggressive songs, is that we got to tour with MOTORHEAD on the "Orgasmatron" tour in Europe 1987. We arrived at the Zurich venue, the first show for us, just as MOTORHEAD were about to start soundcheck. Lemmy struts out on the stage, stamps his foot four times and they crash into "Iron Fist"... WTAF... IT BLEW US ALL CLEAN AWAY... I'd never witnessed anything like it and that moment will never be forgotten and changed our lives as a band," remembers founding member Nige Rockett (guitars).
Accompanied by a powerful music video, the single amplifies ONSLAUGHT's trademark intensity and relentless energy. This ferocious cover is a nod to the band's punk and metal roots, capturing the spirit of rebellion which is still running through their DNA.
