{"product_id":"darkness-descends-5051099620728","title":"Darkness Descends","description":"Darkness Descends, the sophomore album from thrash metal outfit Dark Angel, is a relentless onslaught of raw energy and aggression that will leave listeners with their necks sore from headbanging. From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, the album grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go.\n\nThe guitar work on this record is absolutely blistering, with riffs that cut through the air like a knife. Tracks like \"Merciless Death\" and \"The Burning of Sodom\" showcase the band's impressive technical prowess and ability to shred with the best of them.\n\nVocalist Don Doty's guttural screams add an extra layer of intensity to the already ferocious sound, his delivery filled with rage and conviction. The lyrics may not be the most profound, but they get the job done in conveying the band's dark and aggressive vibe.\n\nDarkness Descends may not reinvent the thrash metal wheel, but what it lacks in originality it more than makes up for in sheer intensity and attitude. This is music that demands to be played loud, preferably while doing your best impression of a windmill on the dance floor.\n\nOverall, Dark Angel have delivered a solid effort with Darkness Descends, a record that will satisfy fans of old-school thrash and leave newcomers wanting more. So grab a cold beer, crank up the volume, and let the darkness descend.","brand":"Vinyl Castle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50740373913931,"sku":"CD134603","price":7.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0880\/2349\/9083\/files\/5051099620728_a682f129-71af-4b28-9218-b438ed278fc4.jpg?v=1777631479","url":"https:\/\/vinylcastle.com\/products\/darkness-descends-5051099620728","provider":"Vinyl Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
