Rochester, New York's Fallen Angel have been delivering power and speed metal since 1992, channeling the twin-guitar heroics and soaring vocal ambitions of the genre's golden era. Decades on, they remain a steady presence in the upstate New York heavy metal tradition.
Seattle thrash act Fallen Angels formed in 2016, drawing on the Pacific Northwest's strong tradition of aggressive, underground-rooted metal. Their approach is rooted in the Bay Area thrash blueprint, filtered through the gritty, rain-soaked character of the Seattle scene.
Omaha power/progressive metal outfit Fallen Reign have been constructing ambitious, melody-driven heavy music since 2015, operating from a Midwest city that punches well above its weight in underground metal. The power and progressive combination suggests big riffs, soaring vocals, and the structural restlessness to keep things from settling into formula.
