Celebrating their 30th anniversary with tons of touring across Canada and the USA this year, 80's thrashers AGGRESSION are not only proud to announce more Canadian dates (listed below), but share the news that they have new material and will be releasing a new album since 1987's 'The Full Treatment'. Entitled 'Fractured Psyche Demons', the 11 track release will be coming out via Galy Records on August 18th.

"Aggression hit the studio last month for the first time since 1987 and we worked with producer Mike Rogerson and engineer Brett Stewart at Vancouver, BC's Harbourside Studio. The outcome was three brand new Aggression songs and a re-recorded version of the group's previously demoed song Metal Slaughter. These four new recordings are set to be released with two other sets of unreleased demos (1985 Demo and the 1986 Demo "Mutilator") that have been remastered by Mike Rogerson." comments founding guitarist Denis Sasquatch Barthe.

Aggression is also pleased to continue their partnership with 1987's The Full Treatment album artist Andre "Thrasher" Gibouleau who came up with the cover art for the new Aggression offering 'Fractured Psyche Demons'.

About AGGRESSION:

Formed in 1985 under the original moniker "Asylum" to be later changed to AGGRESSION, the speed metallers unleashed their 1986 demo "Forgotten Skeleton", (which saw an album release in 2005) and their debut full length "The Full Treatment" in 1987, which lead them to become one of the most popular bands to rise out of the Quebec and Canadian metal scene. With their manager at the time (Johnny Hart), AGGRESSION quickly became a household name with their concerts sold out everywhere and a fanbase that grew from hundreds to thousands in no time. Other bands such as Metallica, Slayer, Exodus, Hallow's Eve, Destruction and others all wanted to see the beast for themselves during tour stops in Montreal. Playing numerous concerts with bands such as Anvil, Celtic Frost, Voïvod, Nuclear Assault, Agnostic Front, D.R.I., Possessed, Dark Angel, Crumbsuckers, Sacrifice and others, AGGRESSION decided to call it quits in 1989 due to external influences.
