Darkness Descends

by Dark Angel

Darkness Descends cover art

Operating at blinding, seemingly impossible tempos, 'Darkness Descends' pushes the extreme boundaries of the West Coast thrash metal scene. Gene Hoglan's pioneering, relentlessly fast drum work propels incredibly dense, aggressive riffing and apocalyptic lyrical themes. It is a manic, infernally heavy masterpiece that served as a crucial bridge between thrash and early death metal.
