“I most enjoy how Fallen Angels incorporate so many different types of songs and moments on World in Decay….the spirit of thrash metal is alive and well in Seattle (of all places) with Fallen Angels” – Metal Nation Radio
“US Thrash with a dose of heavy metal, good sound, good technique and not afraid to go off the beaten track. ‘World In Decay’ simply is a great album!” – Lords of Metal
“If you were in love with the Bay Area scene, check this album out when it hits. And if you are a fan of irony, thrash coming from Seattle should show you that grunge is the loser in the long run of lasting metal mayhem. If you snag a copy, we’d love to hear what you think about it.” – National Rock Review
“These guys give it to you on a molten metal platter with a side of Voivod. This thrash band is bound to feed the need for speed….Every song captures your interest as layer upon layer of tracks there’s something different; little nuances, grace notes, and sweeps. It’s a wonderful earful of surgically placed notes amidst a hail storm of ice picks on your steel shore.” – Horror Metal Sounds
“Nearly every track on this album could be considered a highlight, but my favourites are “Fire At Eden’s Gate” and “Into The Abyss”…On the whole, “World In Decay” is a very impressive album, thanks in large part to the stellar musicianship and attention to detail in the songwriting. Hopefully this album breaks the band through in a much bigger way, because they are deserving of a lot of attention based on this album!” – Skull Fracturing Metal
“”World In Decay” is one of the best thrash metal albums that I have heard in long time.” – Heavy Metal Time Machine
“From Seattle, Washington, this US Thrash metal monster is a new find for me. A young band, now into their third full length album, yes, this hits the spot from the very start. Of you are looking for a band that takes influences from all your favourites of your youth, then head to these Fallen Angels. ” – Brutalism
“Listening to World In Decay is a definite blast from the past. Fallen Angels incorporates various elements of Slayer, Megadeth and early Metallica. Songs are fast-paced, contain some political messages and, of course, have energetic guitar solos worthy of melting anyone’s face. Right off the bat, The Hammer’s Blow opens up the album with a short guitar solo, which sets the overall tone and pace for the entirety of the album.” – Screamer Magazine
“if you want intricate, tuneful thrash metal loaded with gratuitous leads and quasi-political lyrics, you’ve got it.” – Terrorizer
“think the weighty arrangements and acoustic sections of Metallica-meets-the technical wizardry of Forbidden, with hints of Realm’s progressive tendencies and Toxik’s shredding leads and shameless melodies.” – Terrorizer
“As The Big Four were known for that unique sound they helped to create and make popular. Thrash now lives on from Seattle with Fallen Angels.” – National Rock Review
“Old school maniacs should savor this.” – Eternal Terror
“Pure US-Thrash” – Rock Hard
“From a savage, high-octane riff fest in “Legacy of Pain” to a mid-paced, pounding skull crusher “Descension into Madness”, Fallen Angels not only show their true ability to write thrash songs that stand out effortlessly, but are also determined to get their name on people´s lips for good – along with the excellence of their 2nd album, ENGINES OF OPPRESSION. This stuff is meant to kill, even from a long distance.” – Metal-Rules
“Fallen Angels are growing, the riffing already aspires to high places” – Heavy Worlds
“Fallen Angels is able to combine the aggression of Dark Angel, the songcraft of Metallica and the masterful musicianship of Coroner to create some superb thrash.” – Lastrit
“US Thrash Metal with a devastating Bay Area touch” – Metal To Infinity
“If you’re the one hooked on the almighty forces of US Thrash Metal, Seattle-Washington based Fallen Angels’ mission is clear… they’re here to provide the “wild ones” among us with furious sounds of steel, headbangers – take your stand!” – Metal To Infinity
“Must for thrash freaks!” – Dark Scene
“”Engines Of Oppression” is a really good slab of thrash” – The Thrash Metal Guide
“so raw and powerful.” – Greek Rebels

Seattle, WA thrashers Fallen Angels, return in 2015 with their third studio release ‘World In Decay’ produced by Grammy winning metal producer/engineer Michael Rosen (Forbidden, Testament, Death Angel, Flotsam and Jetsam, Tesla, Vicious Rumors) to follow 2011’s ‘Engines of Oppression’ and 2008 debut ‘Rise From Ashes’.
The band captures the classic thrash sound of the Big Four in their prime; early Metallica, Testament, Slayer, and Megadeth as well as lesser known cult heroes Exodus, Annihilator, Forbidden and Havok. Influenced by a wide range of 80’s thrash as well as classic metal from the 70’s and 80’s, the band combines these elements in a fresh, modern sounding album with the explosive riffs and solos that one might have expected to hear on the radio around 1989. Fallen Angels is a band that thrash fans and more classic metal oriented fans can agree on because the music is catchy but also very aggressive.
Fallen Angels will release their third full length album called “World in Decay” on August 4th via Cyberdyne Records. This third record is fresh off the press and will soon be spread across the country. The band plans to tour for this album extensively in the summer 2015, bringing an explosive live show full of thrash and shred! They have been playing locally often and have become a local favorite in the Pacific Northwest because of their great sound and awe inspiring stage performances. Now it is time for the band to expand their audience beyond the Pacific Northwest and gain exposures in the many great metal scenes the Western region has to offer. Don’t miss these shows!
Fallen Angels leave Seattle on July 18th and will return home August 15th.
