We received right hand guitar-riffing education and witnessed some of the heaviest riffs from Jim Durkin. This is experience for a lifetime, rest in peace riff maniac.
I think Dark Angels heavier because they have more depth. After Hell Awaits in my opinion Slayer let some of there more ambient sounds go whereas Dark Angel songs always have a deep sound. That and Dark Angel songs have more riffs plus way lengthier songs which adds relentlessness/momentum which a lot of bands dont have.
Normally, the Slayer fan in me would want to flay your skin for saying that. However, I half agree with you. As far as the actual music goes, Dark Angel's sound has really captured my inner demon more than Slayer's. The guitars are much more complex and sinister sounding. The Lyrics flow a bit better through their rythm as you said, but as for lyrical -content-, I'd have to say that I tend to like Slayer a bit more, probably just preference. They're both two amazing bands, however.
It's reallly not. We Have Arrived is pretty good, Darkness Descends is one of the more iconic thrash albums of the period, but Slayer had a deeper influence on extreme metal, which has from the late 80s up to now been the place of the most innovative, high quality music in the genre as a whole.
@Punk93Metal As much as I think that's stupid to say... It's really stupid to say. Is anyone forcing you to pick one over the other? No? Then let's just keep both.
13 by the time i buy the reckord in puerto rico plaza las americas video sonics store im 40 now im a die hard fan fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
RIP Jim Durkin. This is the first song i wanted to hear after knowing he had passed. It's one of the best metal songs there is.
Rest in peace, Jim Durkin. Thank you for all the killer riffs.
I always reffered this band to people as "Thrash Riffi'n Gods" because of all the riffs they can put into their songs, it's crazy.

Heavy badass riff. These riffs justify the length of the song.
Sick A.F.! Today...Sick A.F. then, back in L.A., in the early 80's!

They got back together but they only play festivals sometimes. They haven't done a new album.

Deicide/the Hoffman Brothers owe their career to Dark Angel.
I fucking love Dark Angel´s lyrics
@Miltn72 He is THE metal drummer.
R.I.P. Jim Durkin 🙏
So underrated
Best song on the album and they never play it live.
As much as I love Slayer, this band is wayyyy better.

Too bad they split up, at least they were legends in the thrash scene when they were active.
at this point they are just flexing with the amount of killer riffs they can put into one song. I mean wtf 😂
