Former DARK ANGEL frontman Don Doty has posted a new clip of him singing the band’s classic song “Darkness Descends”. He says: “[it’s] just a quick one-one time [with] take no effects.” Check it out below.

Doty is not involved in DARK ANGEL‘s current reunion, which includes Gene Hoglan (drums), Eric Meyer (guitar), Jim Durkin (guitar), Ron Rinehart (vocals) and Michael Gonzalez (bass).

DARK ANGEL released two albums with Doty on vocals — 1984’s “We Have Arrived” and 1986’s “Darkness Descends” — before he exited the group and was replaced by Ron Rinehart (after a brief stint with Jim Drabos in 1987).

DARK ANGEL‘s management slammed Don Doty in 2013 for displaying a “lack of responsibility” by posting “false information” and starting “unfounded rumors” that had been “creating confusion” among the group’s fans.

DARK ANGEL guitarist Jim Durkin shot down the possibility of the band reuniting with Doty, explaining: “[Rinehart] was our rock when we needed him and there is NO WAY I would do this without him. He and I talk daily and are as close now as ever.”

Asked what he has been doing since leaving DARK ANGEL in 1987, Doty told Germany’s Radio Gehacktes: “It’s a long story, and at the same time, it’s a short one. I basically started a family and showed up to my last show [with DARK ANGEL] and told the guys, ‘Hey, look, [I have a] baby [on the way] and I can’t be on the road and do the family thing; it was just too hard for me. There were too many beautiful women in the world and there were too many other opportunities to go off the deep end, and I just could not do that. So with that being said, I took a step back and I told the guys, ‘There will be a day and I will come back and we will finish what we started.”

Doty in 2013 announced the formation of a new band called ELIMINATE with drummer Sasha Horn (FORBIDDEN), guitarists Scott Owen (ex-HIRAX) and Henry Elizondo (DEVASTATION) and bassist John Signorelli (SUBVERSION).
