I worked this gig, and their Leave Scars cd release party at the Country Club, Reseda CA. The most brutal and technical speed metal thrash band out at the time. Hoglan has always been a BEAST on the kit.
First two times I seen them live I was in high school 1990. I am 51 now. I have seen them 7 times. Dark Angel kids, this is heavy. They still kill it to this day. I will listen to them to the grave.
There was not any as powerful, faster and good songwriters as Dark Angel. Thanks DA for your fantastic music. One of the best thrash metal bands from the U.S.
Listens A band of skaters called, 50/50 is gore grind, and let's compare which is more angry, And don't talk about the skaters that thrash metal copied and learned from the whole punk and hardcore punk scene, to sound violent, to make Mosh and to wear hats etc etc, take note boy
You are wrong, the grindcore is another form of violence more raw and dirty with voices more sick than dark angel .. the grindcore is noise even more hardcore punk and raw punk, instead Dark angel is more Death thrash, intense and fierce among other things , but definitely different from grindcore .... at least I don't compare bands of different styles, I prefer to be objective. Look for live presentations of these Grindcore bands, to notice even more the different way of sounding brutal ... -Napalm death (with lee dorrian) -Anal Cunt- Fear Of God -Agathocles
Seen dark angel live in Oakland CA. as well as Insect Warfare here in my hometown in Houston, inside a little record shop.. both bands and genres are stupid Raw and Extreme none disappoint.
The Guys must be very glad to rage out on Stage like this. Everyone has a beautiful time to play with these Instruments. Hail to the Old School =) \../
I wish they had made it man...they would have eaten all of the big 4 alive. This band is FAR superior to all of them except for maybe Megadeth/Slayer. Had Death Angel and Dark Angel stayed around we would have had a very different landscape for thrash metal for sure. Glad to see both bands slowly make a come back. Death Angel has been doing a lot lately.
I saw them open up for Overkill around this time. Gene is the coolest motherf***er ever. He was shaking everyone's hand as we left the show. OMG Dark Angel KILLED IT!!!
And as for metallica? They were Kings of metal back in the "80's But beginning with the black Album they became ALTERNICA. They became shit in every sense Of the word the that point on through to today.
No shit! I was there too. Got carried in the mosh pit all the way across the floor. 1st Cannibal Corpse show ever. Also saw Snake, Down Syndrome Boy, James Hetfield, Glue Boy and Slither
These guys are like hyper-speed thrash metal almost to the point of death metal. Kind of reminds me of how Sepultura blurred the lines between thrash and death on those first 3 or 4 records.
@KissMeImPunk I think I can help you on the comment 21APAN. Doty was pretty thin (as was Drabos while we're at it) and not. Ron wasn't very tall (about 5'8" or 5'9") but was built like a tank. I remember meeting Gene years back & I knew he was a big dude but A LOT bigger than I expected. He's a legit 6'4" and close to 300 lbs (I wonder if he and Oakland Raider Robert Gallery were lost at birth).
@KissMeImPunk i m not sure.maybe,if u are older than me,u can tell for sure.i think don was thiner.anyway.Dark angel should have been in the top 1O thrash bands of all time.
Gene hoglan one of the best drummers in metal history
He is THE BEST.
Lombardo
Many good drummers came into Metal, but only after hearing Hoglan (with Lombardo and Benante) In the early 80's...
Semifusas con el doble bombo.

Very cool
Heavy as f*ck saw them in UK back when I was way younger with exodus 🔥💀🔥🇬🇧
Rest in peace Jim Durkin🤘🤘🤘
🕊️
Gods of thrash, they took it to the most intense and aggressive level!
🤘😈🤘
Gene Hoglan was ahead of his time.
hell no ...
RTP GUNNER Yes
He still is.
yeah he is the chuck schuldiner of drums
First two times I seen them live I was in high school 1990. I am 51 now. I have seen them 7 times. Dark Angel kids, this is heavy. They still kill it to this day. I will listen to them to the grave.
Rock on, sir.
Gene Hoglan is so fuckin fast.
He's a fucking BEAST!!!
yes he is :)
Hard to imagine how some one with such huge arms can move them so fast!
He is the best in this genre. The KING of thrash drummers!
How in the hell did gene manage to keep his shades throughout the entire performance while absolutely head banging while shredding and killin it? 🤘🏾
Goma de patilla a patilla, lo raro es que no se le empañen.
How can someone prefer Metallica over this?
Mice and men. lol
very good question....gaytallica sucks...dark angel rule
Well metallica did start the thrash scene
Dark Angel is my favorite Thrash Metal Band. Never heard of Gaytallica. Any good ?
Dark Angel never sold out and stayed true to their Thrash roots
Love how he plays with sunglasses on.
Gene Hoglan is a monster behind the drum kit.
Dark Angel was just the most BRUTAL of all thrash bands, PERIOD. This song RIPS IT UP!!!!!!!
Fastest and most punishing thrash band to ever exist
Slayer
Pure thrash metal!!!! Long live 80s thrash metal!!!!
Real fucking thrash!!
Jim Durkin R.I.P.😢
All those "new" thrash bands can't touch this
Most underrated speed metal band. I put this band up against anyone! One of the best ever
There was not any as powerful, faster and good songwriters as Dark Angel. Thanks DA for your fantastic music.
One of the best thrash metal bands from the U.S.
Kreator
All the best thrash came from the US. It's where it was invented.
@@soundzznetworkyup
One of the best shows from that time that stands up now. I would put this up against Slayer.
Merciless Death with Don Doty : ua-cam.com/video/FNsJiyLzE44/v-deo.html
Had the pleasure of seeing DA leave scars tour with Death at a small club called the Axiom. This show was brutal from start to finish 🤟🤟
Dark Angel: Best thrash band of all times.
This was likely shot at the Empire Rock Club on Roosevelt Blvd. In Philadelphia around 1987.
dark angel is closer to european more extreme thrash metal, than usa happy skater style of thrash metal like anthrax.
Listens
A band of skaters called, 50/50 is gore grind, and let's compare which is more angry,
And don't talk about the skaters that thrash metal copied and learned from the whole punk and hardcore punk scene, to sound violent, to make Mosh and to wear hats etc etc, take note boy
@@DisciplineOfSteel2 Fuck you poser
I wouldn't say that. They got both blended
TRUE THRASH !!!!
Merciless Death with Don Doty : ua-cam.com/video/FNsJiyLzE44/v-deo.html
Awesome. Fucking awesome. Hail Dark Angel. The band with the best riffs in thrash.
Great singer. Right in there w/the riffs
THRASH METAL 110%, yes, over 10% MORE!!!!!
THE KINGS OF THRASH METAL
Merciless Death with Don Doty : ua-cam.com/video/FNsJiyLzE44/v-deo.html
Dark Angel puts the "Thrash" in Thrash Metal.
drumming with sunglasses on, how brutal is that? \m/
Master of Thrash Metal
Merciless Death with Don Doty : ua-cam.com/video/FNsJiyLzE44/v-deo.html
One of the most hardcore and brutal bands ever existed. Dark Angel till my last breath.
Love this band,makes my headbanging👊🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸
gene hoglan
Amazing that Gene to this day still uses those same Tama Camco pedals exclusively.
look at the drummer's swag. lol...
he is not just a drummer...thats Gene Hoglan mate
True
True Thrash metal!!!!......this band is pure energy!!!
grizzly bear playing the drum kit
Eric Meyer. Now there's a guitarist. Respect.
These mother !!!!!!! Dam speechless!!
His voice is kick ass what you mean
Death Angel and Sadus were the heaviest of the thrash bands.
Fastest maybe
one of the greatest Thrash anthem... ever..!!!!
🤘😎DARK🔥ANGEL😎🤘
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ah back when Jim Durken was in Dark Angel.
Fantastic band, brutal song!
Oh shit, yea this is the true metal
That I grew up listening to...
First heard them in ,1986 been
A fan ever since.
welcome to the land of 10,000 riffs
the best thrash metal band
Slayer
Always loved how these guys were more brutal than grindcore
You are wrong, the grindcore is another form of violence more raw and dirty with voices more sick than dark angel .. the grindcore is noise even more hardcore punk and raw punk, instead Dark angel is more Death thrash, intense and fierce among other things , but definitely different from grindcore .... at least I don't compare bands of different styles, I prefer to be objective.
Look for live presentations of these Grindcore bands, to notice even more the different way of sounding brutal ...
-Napalm death (with lee dorrian)
-Anal Cunt-
Fear Of God
-Agathocles
Have you ever heard of Insect Warfare? Lol
@@kevincervantes5230 you know nothing.
It wasent directed at you lol I’m with you buddy
Seen dark angel live in Oakland CA. as well as Insect Warfare here in my hometown in Houston, inside a little record shop.. both bands and genres are stupid Raw and Extreme none disappoint.
3 Jacksons on stage, cool =)
Saw these guys in SF in 88. Awesome show.
Lo mejor del thrash!
I saw the Leave scars tour in Houston Tx definitely intense show at the AXIOM
Favourite song from Leave Scars. That chorus vocal delivery is what sold it for me.
The Guys must be very glad to rage out on Stage like this.
Everyone has a beautiful time to play with these Instruments.
Hail to the Old School =) \../
lars dislike this 5 times
Dark angel Master del thrash!!!!!!!!! Aguante
ClasSICK!
@KissMeImPunk thats rineheart.epic.everyone in this band is epic.
I wish they had made it man...they would have eaten all of the big 4 alive. This band is FAR superior to all of them except for maybe Megadeth/Slayer.
Had Death Angel and Dark Angel stayed around we would have had a very different landscape for thrash metal for sure. Glad to see both bands slowly make a come back. Death Angel has been doing a lot lately.
The best Track from their best Album " Leave Scars". The Sound is raw and Gene HOghlan fuckin´ rules the Thrash Metal Wastelands. Echte Metaller!!!
The Speed Riff is awesome. Try to play it at that Speed! And talking of Speed, Ron Rinehart is the fastest shouting Frontbullet EVER!!!
Yes, sir....he is a beast in his prime here.
I saw them open up for Overkill around this time. Gene is the coolest motherf***er ever. He was shaking everyone's hand as we left the show. OMG Dark Angel KILLED IT!!!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT ! Awesome quality , where you got this?!
And thus the breakdown was invented
Who are those four human beings?!?! ;-)
4?
The fucking bar for brutal thrash.
Brutal, Demoledora, una auténtica ráfaga Nuclear está canción!!! Gene "fucking" Hoglan......
This is tharsh...i love it. listened to other genres but in thrash i cant get enough.
that beat tho
Reminds me of devastation
And as for metallica? They were
Kings of metal back in the "80's
But beginning with the black
Album they became ALTERNICA.
They became shit in every sense
Of the word the that point on through to today.
dark angel la leyenda del thras
Miss those times,when Jackson guitars were American made, not crappy ones made in India, Indonesia or another country like that...
The one and only time I seen DA , was Cannibal Corpse’s first show , River Rock Cafe , Buffalo New York 🤘
No shit! I was there too. Got carried in the mosh pit all the way across the floor. 1st Cannibal Corpse show ever. Also saw Snake, Down Syndrome Boy, James Hetfield, Glue Boy and Slither
@@progmetclass lol

Dark Angel 4 ever ! Saw them live in Paris/France in 91/92 at espace ornano , it was AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!
How a band with a drummer like Lars could pull it off, still a mistery.
El Metallica hasta el Master of Puppets es mejor que este... los demás álbumes ya son de menor nivel que este
same here :)
i really do like hard rock, death, pagan and other various stuff but thrash always gets me and it's my most favourite genre! \m/
bum
Can almost imagine what the mosh pit would be like if they did this song now.
The only band that can rival slayer
Merciless, plain merciless.
this song is still the beast!!!
Bandotaaa......Dark Angel es brutal, los vi en 1991, son lo máximo!! No necesitan pintarse las caras ni nada de esas mamadas!!!
awesome
Gene rules
Brutal!

HAÚPA ESSE A
Ahhhh nice tune for a Saturday night.Awesome band in an awesome time to be alive.Now we have PSY and Justin Beiber.Fuck!
This singer is built like a cross between the current chubby version of Danzig and a middle-aged female barfly.
Next Metallica album will sound like this i'm sure :-)
😂
@KissMeImPunk Some songs were in D, some were in E, some were in Eb. Just from using my eyes, he looks like hes Ron
Lo mejor de lo mejor.
@seadrmin u r one lucky dude...hail to dark angel.true metal heroes.
DENIM ONSLAUGHT! Seriously tho, this is bad ass shit.
