    Forget anything you know about extreme music...this is Dark Angel...perfection in fast music. Classic, defining, punishing, amazing, unreal, fantastic, beautiful. If only we could have another "Leave Scars". Please reform and record another album of music for your die hard fans. There are so many of us !!! Long live Dark Angel !!!

      100% agree, but it was kinda funny to see Gene miss his entrance fill after Jim started the first riff. You can see Mike looking over at Gene like, “Where are you, Gene?” at the 01:30 mark.

      speaking about gay, start watching this video at 2:23 and the way the lead yeller is strutting across the stage. trying to show off his man breast. this guy is gay all the way. dude nothing about this is music. the guitars are doing one thing and drums another and a guy yelling in a mic. i'm not a big rap or hip hop fan but i can name a 100 hip hop songs that have more talent in the first 3 notes. also i'm not a big Metallica fan either but those guys have talent. even tho i don't like Metallica music i still can recognizes talent. serious dude groups like these you and i can can replace any lead singer. i'm sure we could yell in them mic just as good. but i know i can't strut like him.

I had seen a lot of metal bands by 89- but Gene was a whole different breed. Funny, I hardly recall seeing Death or Sadus that night. Pestilence also played. Pits were so much different. Oh-I didnt mention- I had never heard The Immigrant Song before Leave Scars came out.

I would go to the City of Vernon in an industrial building and see them rehearse. Armored saint and Megadeth would also rehearse there,; Megadeth moved out once they got big like in 87 or 88. I was also part time roadie for another punk band called Lucky 7 (crazy ass Dino "Iswear to God I do not shoot up,dude) located at the same bldg.Good crazy old memories.Gene Rules.
