The Invisible Orange presents: DARK ANGEL EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT NORTH AMERICA 2025With support: VIO-LENCE, MIDNIGHT, and INTERCEPTOR.
TICKETS ON SALE Friday, July 18 @ 10 am.
DARK ANGEL
There was a time in the mid-‘80s when “thrash” was the fastest, heaviest, most extreme form of metal. That said, a handful of bands thrashed a little harder and with more feral abandon than their peers. Those chosen few inadvertently led the genre towards an even more brutal style of music that gained underground acceptance a few years later – death metal.
Before that critical point in time, however, ultra-thrash band Dark Angel stood on the precipice of devastation and innovation. Too fast and noisy for some, jawdropping and groundbreaking for others, Dark Angel led a prickly, poisonous path beyond the evil riffs and whirlwind rhythms pioneered by Slayer. And Dark Angel drummer and songwriter Gene Hoglan was right there at the center of the storm (even coaching Slayer’s Dave Lombardo how to play double-bass beats for the breakthrough EP "Haunting the Chapel").

VIO-LENCE
Formed in 1985, Oakland thrashers Vio-Lence helped define and refine what came to be known as the Bay Area sound, dropping three seminal albums before splitting in 1993. Leaving behind a heady legacy, they reformed briefly a couple of times in the intervening years before becoming a full-time going concern once more in 2019. After playing a string of successful shows, the quintet started to think about new music and in 2022 they deliver Let The World Burn, a five-song EP showcasing their first new material in 29 years, which delivers on the classic Vio-Lence sound.

MIDNIGHT
Filthy, belligerent and obnoxious, Midnight make music to start fights to. Since 2003, one-man-band Athenar has been churning out an ungodly racket, dropping countless demos, splits and EPs, and in 2022 he returns with Midnight's fifth full-length, Let There Be Witchery. Delivering more of what can be expected from his demented mind, it is a catchy mixture of black and speed metal and dirty punk rock, and it is relentlessly compulsive.
