Forbidden were an extremely underrated thrash metal band! Everyone in the band were very proficient musicians. Damn, Glen and Craig were so good! It sounds to me like both of them are classically trained. I can hear a lot of classical influence in their guitar solos. It's a great injustice that Forbidden didn't become a huge band! They could have easily been up there with the likes of all the big names in thrash metal.
They are so incredibly talented. Others bands looked up to them even though they weren’t as popular as other thrash bands. I was lucky to see them live in 90 or 91 if I remember correctly, with Heathen and Sanctuary!
Before the extremities of Morbid Angel, there was Dark Angel. At the time "Darkness Descends" came out NO OTHER BAND were as musically extreme as Dark Angel. Until Pete Sandoval came along, no other drummer played as fast as Gene Hoglan. Dark Angels performance on "The Ultimate Revenge 2" just shreds, and is a testament to what I stated above.
I thought all the bands represented well for the period, but Glen Avelais & Craig Locicero fucking shredded. Once again the Bay Area guitarists prove that they were the very best of the genre!!! Those of us who were lucky to experience the Bay Area scene were certainly spoiled by all the shit going on.
Glen Avelais just over bakes !!! 💥💥💥 Saw these guys at the Reseda Country Club they fucking SMOKED Sepultura!!! Craig and Glen are complete shred tandem underrated- but not by me!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
@Scottish Warrior that's cool. I wasn't a this show but, I had been to quite a few DEATH shows back in the day. I too got the opportunity of hanging out with Chuck, Terry Butler & Bill Andrews. It was at one of their shows at a club called "The Pit" in West Palm Beach, FL about a year or so after this show in April '90. They recently let Rick go & had Paul Masvidal from Cynic filling in on guitar. They were promoting the (at the time)new album "Spiritual Healing". What an honor to sit and have s few beers with them before they took the stage while the supporting band played. They were all so down to earth ans just cool. Great experience & memory I'll always remember!
@@m.c.ruckus2032 that's very cool man.. Chuck was an outstanding human being bro.. I also met him here in Cincinnati Ohio in a Kroger.. lol.. he was looking at the magazine's and I walked by and seen him and it caught my eye like holy shit that's chuck fn schuldiner! Lol.. so we talked for about 30 minutes standing in Krogers magazine isle about music and bands and just life in general..he was just an amazing dude all around.. he will definitely be missed man.. RIP chuck schuldiner..
I saw Raven in 2014 at a bar in Los Osos, CA. Most of the guys at the show stayed for the opening bands but left not long after Raven started playing. Only seven or eight people including me stayed for the full set! At the merch table for Raven vintage copies of the Ultimate Revenge 2 on vinyl were sold and i bought one of them. Strange that people bailed on Raven at both shows
I see Raven is influential for many metal bands. In Metallica and others, their echoes can be heard in songs and even full albums. However, I don't think Raven is so popular. They don't seem to appeal to the audiences. Maybe in their early days, fresh and sounding hard. I saw them opening for Metallica a few years ago and the same happened. Of course there were fans of the band too, but basically no one cared.
same thing in Chicago. Toxic Holocaust played and another band i forgot. When Raven played last, half the crowd left. weird. The play heavy ,fast (but not Thrash) riff banging stuff. i guess it doesn't resonate with some people .???
DEATH and DARK ANGEL rule this. I had this VHS tape back in the day, lent it to a friend and his house got broken into and his VCR was stolen with my tape in it, or so the story goes, never got it back.
I remember watching the shit out of this video in highschool at my buddies house getting stoned & living it. Got to see death & dark angel live & forbidden twice as a n opening act, once for exodus, & the other fir sacred reich
I,ve seen this video advertised so many times over the years in all those metal magazines, and today for the first time in 2020 I finally get around to seeing it! I love Forbidden and Punishment Area...
This was almost 5 years after the first combat tour felt like a veteran metalhead when I first seen this good show would have been happy just seeing dark angel and death these concerts with this type of energy are a thing of the past here in Milwaukee, WI forbidden did a good job also
Without a doubt. My first real venue show I attended, was DEATH ANGEL/FORBIDDEN in the late 80s. I was freaking 13 going on 14, getting dropped off at the airport music hall in allentown Pennsylvania multiple times per month, for the first couple years, and fully I swear my hair grew to the middle of my back overnight, I woke up with my jeans having magically turned stone wash and my sneakers became white high tops while I was asleep i swear .... lollllll. My grinning way of saying that I was hooked immediately!!!!!! Still am.
@@theesweetscience2084 I sure am envious of you guys who grew up with the best era of metal! I have their twisted into form album on cassette. Found it at a record store and fell absolutely in love with that album.
I also must not neglect to mention the mighty Raven. Whom were a HUGE influence on the burgeoning speed / thrash metal scene. Their performance on "The Ultimate Revenge 2" is incredible and legendary!
💯 for sure. I've heard many members of the biggest, legendary thrash bands bring up forbidden as probably the most slept on of the era, that they should have made it.
Wow. I was at this show with a buddy who worked for combat records. I was with forbidden throwing pizza slices out of the 15 th floor in philly. I never though i saw death, i wasnt a fan of thhem then but later became one. So now i realize i saw death. Lol. Also, when raven played everyone left. They literally played to about 20 kids. I remeber they were panning in tighter around raven on the monitors to show that noone left.
I guess that was a sign of where the metal crowd was at the time and every band was becoming more brutal and heavier. Raven are great, but there's no way they could've held down a decent sized crowd after that insane Dark Angel set.
That's pretty funny man.. lol.. raven should have never been on that bill to begin with.. Faith or fear, forbidden, dark angel and death is an incredible line up already.. throwing raven in there was really kind of a joke man for real.. they're not bad but that says it all when everyone split on them.. lol.. they should've put them 1st on the bill.. anyway, following the mighty dark angel would've been embarrassing enough.. not to mention following death and forbidden too.. as a matter of fact, I don't think raven did much after this show.. crazy shit man.. great show and video regardless.. it had to have been super amazing to have been there live in person.. you dudes are lucky as hell! Cheers fellers..
I had this on betamax back in the day and watched it so many times it warped.. lol.. I wish they would do an ultimate revenge 3.. that would be fn amazing! Imo the best band on this one is death.. then forbidden.. those 2 bands were killin it.. thanks for sharing this video.. it's been a while since I've seen it.. Cheers from Cincinnati Ohio USA..
I love this video man.. I remember I had this recorded on a betamax lmao.. and I wore this mother fucker out!! Lol.. it has some of the best bands ever on it.. dark angel,, death,, forbidden,, faith or fear,, .. but faith or fear needs to tune up those guitars man.. lol.. and Raven, shwewww.. I was never a big fan of Raven, but I'll give em their props man, they were in the game for a very long time.. and not bad for a 3 piece band.. but they're no rush that's for sure.. and noone was left at this show to watch them play.. everyone left, and that had to be pretty lame for them forreal man.. anyway, thank u so much for sharing this video, it brings back alot of memories for me and death, dark angel and forbidden killed that shit!! Cheers.. RIP Chuck schuldiner..
I have to agree in every word. I remember I got hooked by Death and Dark Angel when I saw them here. I hope you all enjoy the video, it also brings me back very good memories
Philly folk here too. I do admit, I grew up in Poconos, finding anyway that i could to male My way to allentown airport music hall and the Ag Hall Bethlehem, In the mid and late 80s, to see as many thrash/death/metal bands as i could, until I made my way living in Philly after a stint in a couple areas learning to write songs of my own. Then finally moved to Philly in the late 90s, though I grew up in the mountains above it before it. I hear ya brother.
I keep telling people Forbidden is the most underrated Thrash Band ever. This video kinda proves that. Not only did they win in the energy level, but the music they wrote so fast, melodic, and unique. They had their own sound. Great musicians...
I gotta agree with all of these comments.. forbidden was one of the best thrash metal bands at this time.. by far.. those guitarists were up there with the best and were way over looked.. and Paul's drumming was way ahead of its time.. the technicalities of all of the songs the leads the drum parts and bass parts were out there where the birds don't even fly man.. just an amazingly sick and brutal thrash band all across the board.. 100 percent underrated.. And killin everything! Cheers from Cincinnati Ohio USA..
When i was young，look friend play this VHS in his store（sell heavy metal t shirt ) i ask him what's looked at live show ? very high ~ ^ ^ √ finally he told me cliff ‘em all，however after both let me know much about thrash music and til now very happy like
Any metalhead that disliked this video should be banned from the Internet.
INDEED hahahahahahahaha
i totally agree, and that's the bottom line, cause us real metal heads said so.
And what happens to someone who dislikes German Thrash?
YOU ARE RIGHT!!!

Still fkkkng AMAZING 💪👊👊💪
Not to mention their guitar duo😵
So much better than they sound in studio
@@yellowdemon16vt74 Alvelais/Lociero is the equivalent of Tipton/Downing for thrash metal

Agree. Darkness Descends is one of the most brutal albums of my like
Death btw
Death Just Killed It Every Song Perfect!!! Rip Evil Chuck
Metal is the heartbeat of the world.
BOOM
Dark Angel, the definition of metal.
Gene Hoglan makes that drum kit look like a kids toy!
The almighty Trocadero!!!
Winners Of The night
1) Death
2) Forbidden
3) Dark Angel
4) Raven
5) Faith Or Fear
I love it when Death come on and everyone's just super hyped and the audience is cheering DEATH! DEATH! DEATH! They fucking slayed!
The Band was years ahead of their time Chuck is King.
Youre right

Saw these guys at the Reseda Country Club they fucking SMOKED Sepultura!!!
Craig and Glen are complete shred tandem underrated- but not by me!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Is Glen on the left or right side? Sorry, I'm new to this band
@@lovecraftmusic8717 Glen is on the left side of the stage.
they score ponts fer the faces they made while playing the leads no doubt.

Raven came out way earlier than the other 4 bands in the video, they were around the time when Motorhead and Iron Maiden started...
Yeah, NWOBHM...
Correct.
ok👍
indeed I was there ;) gret iimes ---- now i feel old
great times - nerf friggin keyoard😁

Forbidden's solos are so good even their vocalist cant help but air guitar shred along
Best Concerts Ever COMBAT 1 E 2!!!!!!! ♥
All the bands I like, but my favorite is Death. Followed by Forbidden where their guitarists are very good. R.I.P. Chuck
I remember watching the shit out of this video in highschool at my buddies house getting stoned & living it. Got to see death & dark angel live & forbidden twice as a n opening act, once for exodus, & the other fir sacred reich
Damm!! I still have this on VHS.👍
Chris bombeke is the man!! Faith or fear all the way!!
Ok, I think this is the best show that ever happened. All killer bands, hail Dark fuckin' Angel and Forbidden 🤘🤘🤘
Death>
That was a great idea to split the screen down the middle during solos. Such a simple yet effective trick.
Everybody sounds great! What a fucking badass show! Nice to see Raven on here!
Craig locicero's Black and yellow EVH Frankenstein guitar is bad ass
So cool to see Dark Angel, Forbidden, Death, and Raven playing live together. And the other band... they were alright.
fuckin Dark angel just destroyed with that one opening song!!!!! wow, they showed them ALL what THRASH METAL is!!!!
And then Death showed everyone what DEATH METAL is.
Incredible amazing bands of the infernal fuciking time...
I,ve seen this video advertised so many times over the years in all those metal magazines, and today for the first time in 2020 I finally get around to seeing it! I love Forbidden and Punishment Area...

Oooold school Death! RIP Chuck :( That B.C. Rich Stealth is absolutely sick. Would love to own one before I have to check out for good.
Death - Denial of life 51:40
What an iconic show.
I also must not neglect to mention the mighty Raven. Whom were a HUGE influence on the burgeoning speed / thrash metal scene. Their performance on "The Ultimate Revenge 2" is incredible and legendary!
Really.. i think they standout as the poorest band in this lineup by some margin
In a time where metal bands are real metal.
indeed. true aggressive thrash metal bands
Absolutely have to agree w you there bro.. the best time for metal bands and the metal genre in general.. best days ever!
Heavy, power, thrash,glam...what a great times dude
Yeah, mid 90's changed metal forever for the worse.
I just discovered Forbidden a year or so ago, and I've been hooked since, they should have been huge! Fuckin' Chalice Of Blood!!!!!!!!!
🤘😈🤘
They were awesome, great guitarists as well!
"Twisted into Form" is their best album, but this live video was before that album
💯 for sure. I've heard many members of the biggest, legendary thrash bands bring up forbidden as probably the most slept on of the era, that they should have made it.
Glad you like it! enjoy!
forbidden,death, dark angel,...this music separates the real from the fake,
Bought this on vhs day it came out in 1988....still have the fukking thing...
Thanks for putting this up, i had this on beta when it came out. I saw death on the leprosy and spiritual healing tour
Wow. I was at this show with a buddy who worked for combat records. I was with forbidden throwing pizza slices out of the 15 th floor in philly.

Biggest thumbs up possible! Owned this on VHS back in the day. Real fuckin Metal that sounds great! \m/
Amazing video quality and high value memorabilia from those Metal years. Thanks for sharing here.
Beautiful video. Thank you.
Raven looks like the heavy metal version of Rush
That’s an insult to Rush. More like fucking Nirvana.
Faith Or Fear : tune your guitars guys ! :)
the band sucks..
vhs for life!
Very good quality and good sound!!
My favorite riff in Death - Leprosy 48:32

Super!!! Muchas gracias!!! lo tuve en VHS. excelente.

Forbidden and Dark Angel, the best (I'm sorry, Chuck)
1:34:11 I didn't know Lips from Anvil was in this band too.
Great stuff all bands shredded but I'm here for Death and Forbidden!
I am off to purchase some Forbidden. Gene Hoglan is hilarious. Death are awesome.
Genial, tengo el VHS original y con The Ultimate Revange 2 conocí el Death Metal esto es histórico

He did very well

Or the overvalued rapers clowns Anthrax
RAVEN!
Death the best !
