4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT EARLY THRASH ALBUM, October 13, 2003

By	Jeff Swaggerty (New Lenox, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: We Have Arrived (Audio CD)

DARK ANGEL was one of the first of the truly heavy thrash bands to come out in the 80's, along with Exodus, Slayer,Exciter, and Possessed to name a few. Their straight ahead thrash and double bass sound was great. "Welcome to the Slaughterhouse" and the the title track were two of my favorites off the LP. They got much heavier on their 2nd release, "Darkness Descends" but this debut is still really good stuff. Not a classic release, but a strong album well worth getting (not too easy to find though) for all thrashers, especially those into old school metal.

5.0 out of 5 stars We Have Arrived, August 10, 2005

By	Absolute Power (U.S.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: We Have Arrived (Audio CD)

Dark Angel rules,there music is pure fight music,it pumps you up.This album is their best album,even though there first three albums are five star albums.Every song will knock you out.You have Merciless Death on this album which is also on Darkness Descends.Don Doty's voice is amazing.I was reading a review about Darkness Descends and someone said that Don Doty was not a talented singer and then that person said that thrash singers are not talented in general,that's bull sh##.That person doesn't know what he or she is talking about,listen to Joel DuBay,Russ Anderson,John Connelly,Eric A.K.,and Chuck Billy.The best song on the album is Welcome To The Slaughter House.

4.0 out of 5 stars killer old school thrash, March 15, 2008

By	shane "xxx hardcore" (philly) - See all my reviews

dark angel never really got huge but they had a loyal following.they had a number of band member changes threw the years but kept the ball rolling with the base of the band in tact.this cd which i could never find I bought a few weeks ago and I sout of reminded me of metallica-kill'em all and slayer- show no mercy time and exodus- bonded by blood dated counter parts.It's original but you can hear they came from the same mold, an insult no way they had the chops to be mentioned in very good company.I like time doesn't heal the best but this is a great cd too.
