How cool is that huh?! Anyway for those who think that DARK ANGEL had nothing to offer after "Leave Scars", I recommend them to check out this long forgotten four piece as they were delivering good Thrash Metal the way DARK ANGEL sounded like circa "Darkness Descends" with touches of SLAYER and DESTRUCTION, catchy, intense and ripping! With the help of their former manager, Marco Barbieri, I managed to get in touch with original guitarist Ahrue and with his help got other guitarist Scott Savich involved as well.

The first incarnation of the band came out under the name of OBLIVION in 1984 and was formed in Sarasota by Kelly Shaefer as guitarist and a drummer named Mark who was soon replaced by Steve Flynn who shared Kelly's musical tastes. They started writing originals such as "State Of Oblivion" at a time that they were starting to learn playing their instruments. By early 1985 they had changed their moniker for R.A.V.A.G.E. (Raging Atheists Vowing A Gory End) and recruited a singer named Scrappy. With that line up they were playing more originals such as "Undefiled Wisdom" or "On They Slay" but also covers from ANTHRAX, EXODUS, TROUBLE, SLAYER... A while later at a local show they jammed with Roger Patterson, a prodigy who was playing bass in the Bradenton based band Thrash act AGGRESSOR and it didn't take long to him to join R.A.V.A 32 Years Ago: SLAUGHTER repeat with Grub Schuldiner (Fuck of Death)
