The setlist is a dream come true for longtime fans, featuring classic tracks like “Merciless Death,” “The Burning of Sodom,” and the thunderous title track “Darkness Descends.” Known for their aggressive sound and complex arrangements, Dark Angel’s live performance brought a raw intensity that reminded the crowd why the album is still considered one of thrash metal’s defining releases.

With Gene Hoglan back behind the kit and founding member Jim Durkin’s spirit honored throughout the set, the tour serves both as a celebration of the band’s legacy and a tribute to their enduring impact on metal.

The tour will span several major European cities over the coming weeks, drawing metalheads from across the continent. For those who grew up on the furious riffs of the ’80s or newcomers discovering the band’s legacy, Dark Angel’s Darkness Descends tour is a must-see event. Via MetalgodZradiO
