Today’s Interview is with guitarist Wayne Dorman of one of the UKs, if not the world’s best thrash bands Onslaught. Wayne played in the band’s latest release Generation Antichrist which was released in 2020 on AFM records. Wayne joined the band in 2018 as the lead guitarists whose skills are evident across the albums 9 tracks
Joining Onslaught was a bit of a surprise to me as it sort of came out of the blue. I’d not been active on the music scene for several years at the time (I hadn’t even really played guitar during this time either). I just woke up one day to a message on Face-
and inviting me to audition. - What was it like to join such a legendary band and what were the expectations on you? To be honest, at the time I didn’t really know what to expect but the guys were pretty easy going and helpful in helping me settle in and as I said previously, I’d not played guitar properly for about 5 years so not only had I sold most of my gear off, but my playing was also very rusty so I had to rebuild my abilities and confidence with the instrument from scratch.
