1990. 15 years old. Not a great life. Asking myself what is the point. Listening to songs like this in a darkened room. Somehow I kept going. Life a lot better after high school. Thanks Death Angel and all the other bands of my youth.
My God, dude...that guitar solo has lived in my bones since I was 15 years old....this is an all time favorite. Been on every playlist I've ever made. ❤
Guess I was the old guy at the bar, I was 25 and in the pit for everyone of those you mentioned in '90 and never leave Testament out of the discussion they still are one of the preeminent thrash bands ever. Damn I drank a shit load of beer, smoked weed, and lots of acid and I'm still here. Good times had by all.
+Scott Fish truth. So glad to have grown up in the Bay Area in the 80s, early 90s, so I got to be exposed to them early on.... and so glad to see them back and still awesome. Caught them taking a break from opening for Anthrax/Exodus in Columbus a few years back and they put on one hell of a show. Literally ended up having to do multiple chiropractic visits after from neck damage from the pit, lol.
Why am I just now discovering this band!?!?! My God... such a beautiful sound. "Yet little do they know the boundaries of his wisdom. In the solitude of his kingdom." One of the most powerful lyrics I've EVER heard.
These guys are literally family. Gus Pepa (rhythm guitar) and Dennis Pepa (bass) are brothers, and Rob Cavestany (lead guitar), Andy Galeon (drums), and Mark Osegueda (vocals) are their cousins.
Still can't believe I waited this long to listen to this song again. Probably because I've even played it on acoustic so much that I know the song inside/out.
I'm from another time class of 1990 i was 18 , I've been singing this song for 30 years and it still gives me chills singing it through ... fan for life.
This was next level in 1990…for a thrash band…they were on there way..then the fucking bus accident…derailed their fate…the original lineup anyway..this shit was way ahead of it’s time!!
Sitting at the window staring down Listen to the people shuffle around and around Hear the children laughing Feel the morning breeze (Feel the morning breeze) Sunlight warms his skin The autumn air is taken in A nearby bird sings it's song for him For him... Take it You're looking at him He's looking through you (A room with a view...) Who's fooling who? There's got to be something that he knew So there he sits and some may wonder About the sly grin on his face Yet little do they know (They don't have a clue) The boundaries of his wisdom In the solitude of his kingdom You're looking at him He's looking through you (A room with a view...) Who's fooling who? There's got to be something that he knew
Like so many in the comments, I was 16 in 1990. My best friend turned me on to these boys, and he had the same black Ovation. He also turned me on to guitar - he was a helluva player and even back then was ripping this solo - to the point where we formed a band, and then a 2 man acoustical duo in our "old age". He died in 2020, and this song is like a conduit to his soul from mine. Peace.
First time I listened to this song and I learned how to play it on the electric guitar and acoustic parts in about 10 minutes and all I can say is that this song in its simplicity is so beautiful that it wrecks me to my core...I might have the ability to copy a song by ear but I highly doubt that I would ever have the ability to create a song like this ... it is so powerfully emotional to the core...all I can do is show RESPECT

I gre up in the 80s and 90s loved megadeth, Metallica, pantera, and metal and somehow missed out on death angel, I just discovered them last year and wow so underated.
I'm 15 again... Crazy band!!! I remember when Ramones singer wished them a speedy recovery on headbangers ball... Then they put this song. Great band indeed
Act III is one of my favorite albums of all time. I remember buying it on cassette tape while I was on summer holidays. I just couldn't stop listening to it...
king diamond I totally agree. Their earlier stuff sounds so raw & unique that you can tell it's was Death Angel. Same with Anthrax, Testament and others. Nowadays it sounds all the same to me which is why it's hard for me to follow most of these bands. Just miss the sound of the mid 80's/90's.
This song will forever remind me of October 29, 1992. The day my Mom passed away. RIP Carol Lee Butrym, I love you. Thanks to DA for this song that stirs up so much emotion even 27 years later.
I had to say that this song was very well produced and the musicianship was superb props to these guys For the taller story that was simple and complex at the same time that in itself is it amazing accomplishment
This is the first time that I have ever heard Death Angel, which is classified as a Thrash Metal Band from California that got started in 1982. I have to say that they are musically talented. You can hear them play and sing harmonies in that rock ballad. And Rob Cavestany playing Classical Spanish Acoustic guitar or it really seemed like he was playing with sheer talent there, beautiful! Ted Aguilar with the Rhythm guitar and both doing back up vocals. Damien Sisson on the Bass guitar and Mark Osegueda with Lead Vocals. Great Singing voice! Mahtava! And Will Carroll on the Drums. This ballad was great but I wouldn't know they were a Thrash band unless I hear another one of their songs. They are really talented, so thumbs up on Death Angel! You Rock!! 🤘🏻🖤🎸🖤😈
This was before ted, will and damien entered the picture. Andy galeon (original drummer) and dennis pepa (original bassist) are doing backing vocals here. And gus pepa was still on rhythm guitar at this time
Canciones asi son muestra de los sentimientos profundos de un compositor, cada persona tiene derecho a expresarse como desee, y estos grandes lo hacen de una manera increible, el Act III, sin duda uno de sus mejores trabajos, pesado y melodico a la vez, me gusta mucho, viva el Thrash y las baladas Metaleras!!
No matter what language you speak you understand love let alone intelligence. That's because of your familia or you're grandparents or great great parents. It's all of us or none of us
Look up The UltraViolence and you will see the awesome thrash that Death Angel is/was/is again ... This song is one of the Act III album tunes where they were kind of transitioning to the Organization... which failed and Andy left, and went back to DA ... This is still one of my faves of theirs regardless of genre, don't care just a good tune
saw them at the albert's hall in toronto in '89. got whiplash, a dislocated shoulder, and stranded in TO in the middle of january. would do it again. been a fan for 30 years now. i am NOT bored of death angel
@@kingnaildriver7232 I bought that album...sorry guys but most of your fans won't be heading in that direction. Reminds me of Black Tide more recently. Go listen to Shockwave, great thrash song. Then go look at the comments. "You were our hope! You were suppose to slay the emo hoards, not join them!". They have a great thrash tone on the first album and like DA were a very young band. The lead singers voice changed and the band kinda just turned to meh.
THANK YOU.....I have been saying this for decades. Also, I just want to say Kerry King is the biggest PUSSY and YES I have said this to his face...he is a pussy and THIS SONG makes Slayer who I like...look like the biggest overrated NON TALENTED bunch of pussies that they are and fuck Jeff too
Whats funny is, those exact three are touring together and of those three, Death Angel was the reason i bought tickets to see em in Cleveland. They came out first and straight up killed it... too bad they were also the shortest on stage.
Love these guys. I was a fan from the beginning. I remember I was about 14 years old when this album came out. I discovered them in the tape trading scene in the 80's. I was and still am a metal head for life!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
These guys were all between 17 and 22 years old when they recorded this. That still blows my mind. I get that they recorded The Ultra Violence 3+ years earlier, and that's amazing for obvious reasons, but this song sounds like something that a person would need 40+ years of life experience just to even think of writing, let alone to pull it off. Whatever Death Angel achieves in their career, they'll never get as much credit as they deserve.
❤😂 I learned this as a teenager rolling into my 20'$ one of the best bands up there with Zeppelin Metallica The rolling Stones the grateful Dead honestly priceless

1990. 15 years old. Not a great life. Asking myself what is the point. Listening to songs like this in a darkened room. Somehow I kept going. Life a lot better after high school. Thanks Death Angel and all the other bands of my youth.
I was 16 and I agree. This song and album will always be a masterpiece. One of only a few albums I can play all the way through with no skips..
Keep her lite kid
I feel a lot of us have that in common man... real talk
This band saving me now 30 years later. Pandemic, isolation not good for mental health.
After two years , I'm reading your comment. I hope your life is now a lot better than then. Big hugs.
My God, dude...that guitar solo has lived in my bones since I was 15 years old....this is an all time favorite. Been on every playlist I've ever made. ❤
Easily one of the best rock ballads ever.
Man this album takes me back to 1990. This along with Anthrax, Slayer Megadeth, Exodus..... Suicidal.Great time to be an 18 year old kid.
Yes
Same cept I was 16 x
Guess I was the old guy at the bar, I was 25 and in the pit for everyone of those you mentioned in '90 and never leave Testament out of the discussion they still are one of the preeminent thrash bands ever. Damn I drank a shit load of beer, smoked weed, and lots of acid and I'm still here. Good times had by all.
@@43captrexkramer practice what you preach was my fave t shirt....i loved testament!
It was a great time but for some reason I completely overlooked DA , today they are one of my favorites.
this band was so so under rated its a sin
+Scott Fish So true man!!!
+Scott Fish truth. So glad to have grown up in the Bay Area in the 80s, early 90s, so I got to be exposed to them early on.... and so glad to see them back and still awesome.

It kills me!
I know their voices were amazing the music awesome ...I seen these guys late 80s I believe they played at the trocadaro in philly great show...
So true
Death Angel is a great band, the album Act III is incredible. Great music, love the solos.
Persistance of Time ,Souls of Black ,Rust in Peace , Season in The Abbys, ACT3 and more ,and more.Golden Age for Metal.
Why am I just now discovering this band!?!?! My God... such a beautiful sound.
"Yet little do they know the boundaries of his wisdom. In the solitude of his kingdom." One of the most powerful lyrics I've EVER heard.
Yeah they’re amazing I discovered them a few months ago and now, I’m gonna see them today as my first real concert!!
what does it mean?
Was underrated!!!! they are still making music and still underrated. The newer stuff is so amazing...
left for dead....is mind blowing...they definitely beat to a different drum...to own a style in a large genre is pure talent
lomba73 this is best album ever, newer albums are craps more, my opinion
James Hetfield, Death Angel have gotten better over time. Act 3 is a great album but their new stuff is amazing also
king diamond just listen their new albums and judge them by the metallica new crap albums you funboy
Act 3 is pure and simple one of the greatest albums of the era.
Far better than Nothing Else Matters
I'm in love with that acoustic solo
One of my favorite albums. Takes me back. Still jams in every way.
These guys are literally family. Gus Pepa (rhythm guitar) and Dennis Pepa (bass) are brothers, and Rob Cavestany (lead guitar), Andy Galeon (drums), and Mark Osegueda (vocals) are their cousins.
1990, senior year, yeah, its time to bring these days back.
haven't heard this in bout 15 years. All those wonderful emotions came roaring back. Great songs could be the most powerful force .
Same here, haven't heard it in about 20 years
Still can't believe I waited this long to listen to this song again. Probably because I've even played it on acoustic so much that I know the song inside/out.
One of the best bands ever
Great songs are
Music is my escape from reality I couldn't imagine the world without music. Thanks (Death Angel)🤘🤘
I'm from another time class of 1990 i was 18 , I've been singing this song for 30 years and it still gives me chills singing it through ... fan for life.
Gives me chills every time I hear / sing this song.
Incredible Song.🤘🤘🤘🤘
MY Roommate in College turned me on to this song...
Itll be with me FOREVER!!!
REST
IN
POWER
Andy Snyder
Act III is one of my favorite metal albums of all time
I Think We Are Family. You got that right brother
Agreed
This was next level in 1990…for a thrash band…they were on there way..then the fucking bus accident…derailed their fate…the original lineup anyway..this shit was way ahead of it’s time!!
Sitting at the window staring down
Listen to the people shuffle around and around
Hear the children laughing
Feel the morning breeze (Feel the morning breeze)
Sunlight warms his skin
The autumn air is taken in
A nearby bird sings it's song for him
For him... Take it
You're looking at him
He's looking through you
(A room with a view...) Who's fooling who?
There's got to be something that he knew
So there he sits and some may wonder
About the sly grin on his face
Yet little do they know (They don't have a clue)
The boundaries of his wisdom
In the solitude of his kingdom
You're looking at him
He's looking through you
(A room with a view...) Who's fooling who?
There's got to be something that he knew
This song still holds up all these years later.
how come the hardest bands can make the best soft sounds?
everyone have to chill out sometimes, even death angel :P
Gamer Pharoah because the hardest men know the greatest pain !
Sometimes in life you feel unbearable pain,
And sometimes its happiness you never knew.
They portray their emotions in song
Always asked myself the same
Judas priest has a slow song that takes me away... DESERT PLAINS
It's so weird how the song just fades out right in the middle of a really good solo. I want to hear the rest of the solo.
fade to black too idk if this has a regular ending on the album version
That's ultimate brilliance imho
All Filipino Band! Respect from USA!
lion heart lol they are americans anyway
THE FOUNDING MEMBERS WERE ALL FILIPINO BY BLOOD FROM SAN FRANCISCO MY OLDER BROTHER GREW OLD WITH THEM
They are Filipinos?
Vivian Mayer yes but born in America
Legend says,
They're still Filipino to this day. Amazing.
one of the best Heavy Metal bands ever!!!!!!!!!
Best band ever !!! go to a show and watch them live !!!!!! You’ll thank me later
Agreed

RIP to your fallen brother 🙏
Beautiful
That solo at the end was sick! Wished it was a bit longer. This song is so beautiful.
Go buy the album, the end solo is a bit longer
If a band this great couldn't get the fame they deserved you know the 80's metal lineup was #deep.
I'm 50 years old. This song has never left my head. Sing it all the time
This song is definitely different from their usual stuff and I love it..
Act 3! What a masterpiece!
I love this song, beautiful.
I miss it all. R.I.P. Nathan Farmer. Love you brother.
Act III is fucking great album. I used to listen it for days. This one is particularly good. Those were the days...
It is amazing... every song is memorable.
Act III is Death Angel’s best!
When I was younger, this was one of my least favorite songs from them. But now that I'm a little bit older, this is one of my favorites
Remember my old days as a death angel fans... ACT III & ULTRA VIOLENCE album....
I come back to the GEM from time to time.
It reminds me of my senior year talent show in high school. 🤘
First time I listened to this song and I learned how to play it on the
electric guitar and acoustic parts in about 10 minutes and all I can say
is that this song in its simplicity is so beautiful that it wrecks me
to my core...I might have the ability to copy a song by ear but I highly
doubt that I would ever have the ability to create a song like this ...
it is so powerfully emotional to the core...all I can do is show
RESPECT
My absolute favorite Death Angel song. Awesome.
What a badass band. I loved them growing up. I’m just rediscovery them now

you're a very awesome person.
crinoid1919 right
Thank you for these meaningful lyrics. ❤️
Sounds SPIRITUAL...❤✌
love this band. they got me through the late 80's early 90's
2023 bitches. Real music travels with us
Such a rad song. Brings back so many awesome memories from my teen years.
I gre up in the 80s and 90s loved megadeth, Metallica, pantera, and metal and somehow missed out on death angel, I just discovered them last year and wow so underated.
Wauuuuuuuuuu I have not heard this song for more than 25 years, that was a perfect time 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm 15 again... Crazy band!!! I remember when Ramones singer wished them a speedy recovery on headbangers ball... Then they put this song. Great band indeed
One of the best metal ballads of all time.

Old School & BAD ASS! Love these guys.....
Death Angel is awesome live. I have seen them twice and they kicked major ass! love these guys.
Act III is one of my favorite albums of all time. I remember buying it on cassette tape while I was on summer holidays. I just couldn't stop listening to it...
A beautiful ballad as I can say.
Carla Graça sensitive
Carla Graça i have this on cd, guys are pretty talent but newer albums i dont like so much
Agree :)

God damn these guys were good.
Ken Killings and they're still good!!
Ken Killings And they still are legendary
Ken Killings right
Listen to The Evil Divide from 2016 and tell they’re not still amazing.
The Most Beautiful Ballad By The Bay Area Thrashers Death Angel. Awesome . Classic.Epic.
I think the kids slow danced to this at the High School prom in 1990.
1990 That was my Class! ✌️
@@XXxCHRISxXX 1989
the random in my video recommendations. It is always great to come back and listen to some classic Death Angel
I had to say that this song was very well produced and the musicianship was superb props to these guys For the taller story that was simple and complex at the same time that in itself is it amazing accomplishment
Met these guys in 2002 in Seattle at the Moore Theater. They were so nice and sweet.
One of the greatest songs of ALL TIME!!!🎉🎉🎉❤
The greatest metal ballad of all time "The solitude of his kingdom"-- fuck that is a powerful line
Finally, someone feels the same way!!!!

Love u❤️Love this song, from my teenage years. I was seeing u live
I really love this song! Greetings from Brazil ❤
Couldn't agree more with you!!
Ultra frolic III i can play it all. One of the best bands ever. Death Angel!!!!!!
Still here staring at the window down.....
Yet little do they know
(They don't have a clue)
The boundaries of his wisdom
In the solitude of his kingdom
My band loves covering this song
Look up The UltraViolence and you will see the awesome thrash that Death Angel is/was/is again ... This song is one of the Act III album tunes where they were kind of transitioning to the Organization... which failed and Andy left, and went back to DA ... This is still one of my faves of theirs regardless of genre, don't care just a good tune
Agreed!
saw them at the albert's hall in toronto in '89. got whiplash, a dislocated shoulder, and stranded in TO in the middle of january. would do it again. been a fan for 30 years now.
i am NOT bored of death angel
Dustin Brown Saw the Organization in my home town back in the day.The refused to play any DA material.It was uncomfortable for the crowd and the band.
The swarm. Rob solo album also great video post thank you bad death day
@@kingnaildriver7232 I bought that album...sorry guys but most of your fans won't be heading in that direction. Reminds me of Black Tide more recently. Go listen to Shockwave, great thrash song. Then go look at the comments. "You were our hope! You were suppose to slay the emo hoards, not join them!". They have a great thrash tone on the first album and like DA were a very young band. The lead singers voice changed and the band kinda just turned to meh.
I love when thrash bands decide to do ballads. Why? They WORK. This moved me back in the day, moves me still.
Death Angel over Slayer and Anthrax any fucking day!!!
and metallica
THANK YOU.....I have been saying this for decades. Also, I just want to say Kerry King is the biggest PUSSY and YES I have said this to his face...he is a pussy and THIS SONG makes Slayer who I like...look like the biggest overrated NON TALENTED bunch of pussies that they are and fuck Jeff too
Whats funny is, those exact three are touring together and of those three, Death Angel was the reason i bought tickets to see em in Cleveland. They came out first and straight up killed it... too bad they were also the shortest on stage.
Good choice, Death Angel is the reason I would go as well.
Exactly the same for me !! Saw them in Montréal sept. 13 and they fuckin nailed it !! They are the best crash metal band period.
Love these guys. I was a fan from the beginning. I remember I was about 14 years old when this album came out. I discovered them in the tape trading scene in the 80's. I was and still am a metal head for life!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
At first, I was underwhelmed by this song, but the more I listen to it, the more I enjoy it.
IMHO the best heavy metal balladas
does anyone remember a side project right after this album from the members of D.A., called the organization, had it on cassette,..1 album
They made two albums, I have both.
Jay Cap 2 albums “Savor the Flavor “- and the first one.
Still got the cassette.
One of my favourite thrash albums. So versatile and ageless!
I come here not because we are the same south east Asian, but because they are creating good stuff
Throw back to 1990s....Damn that feeling
40 people have no taste.
Damon Kinney right
Only 40....try 40 million.
DEATH ANGEL ! & Thee ORGANIZATION ! #LIFE
this song has blown my mind for years.........it f@#king rocks!!!
still watching this bring me back to that days when i was 15 yo kid and i love to see how cool they are at this video
this is like Dons garage 1988 all over again good beer good friends and Steve Redbird too !! oh how I miss them all !!
Death Angel is just great !

This makes life for me feel. At ease to look out a window. When you just had gotten out from lock up......
death Angel still rocks
VERY CONTEMPORARY SONG....
FILIPINO ALWAYS HAVE TALENTED MUSICIANS, ESPECIALLY IN ROCK!!!
This tape didn't leave my car radio for the longest time. I'm here in 2024, reminiscing. Good stuff... underrated AF!!
such a good old days.
Classic Ballad Metal at its Best. I miss all these bands although they are back stronger than ever.
They are still going strong. See them live while you can..
❤😂 I learned this as a teenager rolling into my 20'$ one of the best bands up there with Zeppelin Metallica The rolling Stones the grateful Dead honestly priceless
