Death Angel & Vio-Lence in Brno

Death Angel is an American thrash metal band formed in Daly City, California, in 1982. Part of the San Francisco Bay Area thrash scene, the group is known for albums including The Ultra-Violence, Frolic Through the Park and Act III, as well as songs such as “Bored” and “Seemingly Endless Time.” A 1990 tour was cut short by a bus crash that seriously injured drummer Andy Galeon, and the band subsequently broke up. The musicians reunited in 2001 for the Thrash of the Titans benefit at Maritime Hall in San Francisco, then returned to sustained recording and touring. In later years, they joined Testament and Exodus for the Bay Strikes Back tour, bringing three generations of Bay Area thrash history onto the same stages.

Vio-Lence is an American thrash metal band formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1985. The band is best known for its debut album, Eternal Nightmare, followed by Oppressing the Masses and Nothing to Gain; “Phobophobia” and “World in a World” are among its signature tracks. Vio-Lence performed at Dynamo Open Air in Eindhoven in 1990. During its first reunion, the band appeared at the 2001 Thrash of the Titans benefit at Maritime Hall in San Francisco, then returned after another long hiatus for a 2019 concert at the Oakland Metro Operahouse.
