Is some of the baddest metal ever created. The rest of the song is standard speed/thrash metal but that breakdown is a beautiful thing! It's evil beauty, if that's such a thing lol.

Angel of death is by far the best song on the album imo, though I find the scream at the beginning really weak that breakdown is great as you say. Too bad the rest of the album is generic as hell and forgettable in comparison.

I actually agree with that! the rest of the album has it's moments but nothing that compares to AOD.

Such a great riff. Groove metal before Pantera popularised the term.

The opening guitar solo is pure thrash metal
