Remembering Ireland writes:

Angelus (Six O’Clock Rock, 1988). One of the more popular bands in the Catholic Heavy Metal scene, Angelus was an attempt to court youth back to the church by Fr Darts Fallon (vocals), Brother Spartacus Brady (lead guitar) Fr Thane O’Lysaght (rhythm guitar) Monsignor Hollywood Momoa (bass) and Bishop Edward Daly (drums). After 14 top 40 hits and three minor miracles, the band split in 1990 following a bar fight in Dresden with touring partners, TABERNACLE.

Anyone?

BONG!

Thanks Michael Murray

    I cannot stand these nostalgia driven puntastic memes about anything 1980s. What a waste of creative effort.

    Seems like everyone under 30 is dreaming of someone imagined bygone era of happiness instead of using their efforts to fight inequality (and no, not the easy fashionable issues of new feminism, marriage equality and gender rights), but the real issues of social deprivation, and economic oppression. But hipsters don’t see poor people do they. They willfully ignore them.

      Willfully ignore them, they do.

    I saw them at a Stations of the Cross in Dingle in 89. They rocked that house to it’s foundation (literally, it needed extensive renovations before the family were allowed to move back in). Later on that night the lead singer was found passed out in the back room with powdered Communion wafer crusted all around his nose and 2 small bags of myrr on the floor.
