21/21 #DeathAngel #Metaljourney
Humanicide is another great album. Death Angel have a really strong catalogue, there aren't any stinkers.
I am not a huge fan of the first two albums though. Honestly I didn't find them very innovative. They borrowed A LOT from Anthrax and Megadeth and a bit less from Metallica and Slayer.
All of this is forgotten when it comes to Act III, which is superb and the most creative they have ever been.
So anyhow, here is my final Death Angel Metal Journey album ranking:
1. Act III
2. The Evil Divide
3. Killing Season
4. Humanicide
5. Relentless Retribution
6. The Art of Dying
7. The Ultra-Violence
8. Frolic Through the Park -

The latest Death Angle album ("Humanicide") is already seven years old. There must be a new one on the way 🤔
Anyhow, it is an absolute blast!
🎵 Divine Defector by Death Angel

And here comes the album that ignited my love for Death Angel, The Evil Divide.
It was the first DA album I ever listened and it blew me away.
They just released a 10th anniversary addition which adds one song. Well, let's give this version a try.The opening track is without a doubt my favourite Death Angel song.
🎵 The Moth
💿 The Evil Divide, 2016

While listening to this album I got a call from school that my kid got sick because of the heat. Because there is no AC in the school. If you read this in the future: there is a massive heatwave going on while I am typing this.
I finished "Relentless Retribution" today and again, it is a banger of an album.
🎵 Where They Lay, Death Angel

Next up: Relentless Retribution
It has to be said: Mark Osegueda's vocals aged like fine wine. On the first few albums he was more like a Belladonna/Hetfield/Mustaine tribute act. But ever since their comeback he really found his own style. And it rips, he's one of the best.
🎵 Claws In So Deep by Death Angel

Here's what I have to say about "Killing Season":
Killing Season is a mad thrasher, holy cow!
🎵 Resurrection Machine, Death Angel

After "The Art of Dying" it is time for "Killing Season".
#ThrashMetal was revived in the 2000s, and Death Angel played their part in it.
🎵 Buried Alive, Death Angel
💿 Killing Season, 2008

After a fantastic 3rd album Death Angel split up.
They regroup again and come back in 2004 with "The Art of Dying".It starts with an absolute banger 👇
🎵 Thrown to the Wolves, Death Angel
💿 The Art of Dying, 2004

The only song on "Act III" I don't like is "Room With a View".
The rest is thrashtastic 🤘Act III is at least 3 tiers above the first to and will have a very strong argument for being my #1 Death Angel album by the end of this journey.
🎵 Disturbing The Peace, Death Angel
💿️ Act III, 1990

1. Act III
2. The Ultra-Violence
3. Frolic Through the Park -
...and just like that, there's a funk-metal song. This album is something else!
🎵 Discontinued, Death Angel
💿️ Act III, 1990

Album number 3 is called "Act III" and it starts like a John Bush era Anthrax album.
2 minutes in and I already like it much more than any of the first two.
🎵 Seemingly Endless Time, Death Angel
💿 Act III, 1990
▶️ https://song.link/y/0sPEID-fl9QFunny thing: when song 1 remembered me of John Bush, song 2 is so clearly Joey Belladonna.
Props to Mark Osegueda for pulling this off!

Death Angel album number 2 is considered (another) thrash classic. It's "Frolic Through The Park" and has a very weird album cover.
And it has a speed metal song on it 👇
🎵 Why You Do This, Death Angel
💿 Frolic Through the Park, 1988
▶️ https://song.link/y/a0YGOxpL9Sw -
On Death Angel's debut album you can hear a lot of early Metallica, very early Slayer, some Megadeth and the vocals are partly very Anthraxy.
What's not to like?
🎵 Final Death, Death Angel
💿 The Ultra-Violence, 1987
