The third European re-release of the second full-length studio album by cult American Thrash Metal band.
Dark Angel's final album to feature original vocalist Don Doty, and the first to feature drummer Gene Hoglan, who joined the band a few months prior the release of their debut album, "We Have Arrived". While "Darkness Descends" continued the traditional Thrash Metal sound of "We Have Arrived", a portion of the album (particularly "Black Prophecies") contains elements that would be expanded upon on Dark Angel's next two albums, "Leave Scars" and "Time Does Not Heal", which saw the band produce a mixture of Thrash Metal with Progressive and Technical structures.
Released at the height of Thrash Metal's popularity, "Darkness Descends" has been cited as a major influence on the Death Metal, Doom Metal and Groove Metal scenes of the late 1980s and 1990s. It is considered an essential release in the Thrash Metal genre. In August 2014, Revolver placed "Darkness Descends" on its "14 Thrash Albums You Need to Own" list. Decibel Magazine placed it 9th on its "50 Greatest Thrash Metal Albums of All Time". Loudwire placed "Darkness Descends" at number 6 on its "Top Ten Thrash Albums NOT Released by the Big 4" list.
"Darkness Descends" is considered to be a classic in the Thrash Metal genre.
