Desolation Angels 2017 - Are a Classic CHORUS driven Heavy Rock Heavy Metal band!

The sound that creates their brand of Heavy Metal Thunder, is derived from a duo of extremely powerful twin guitarists.

The rhythm section is of ‘Classic Rock’, and leans towards the intensity of such epics as Screaming For Vengeance and Painkiller, but still retains the grind, thump and grandeur of the classic Kashmir.

This huge sound is totally accentuated and driven home by a colossal vocal, tuneful, but hard hitting as it drives home each chorus line.

In short, Desolation Angels are ‘Classic Rock’ but with a modern and contemporary twist!

Desolation Angels 1981 - Was formed in early 1981 by childhood friends and twin guitarists Robin Brancher and Keith Sharp.

We recruited drummer John Graham from our previous band to pursue a heavier direction, soon to be joined by another old school friend Joe Larner on bass. An ad was placed in Melody Maker for a vocalist and the line-up was completed when Dave Wall auditioned. Being based in the East End of London, we set about writing, rehearsing and building up a local following. During 1981 we put together a couple of rough demos but at that time our main passion was playing live. We soon built up a reputation as a live act on the pub and club circuit. In those days we spent more money putting on a decent show with a huge P.A and lights, than we received from playing.
