In September 1991, the rhythm section of D'Angelo and bassist James Lomenzo left due to business discrepancies.

In 1993, both D'Angelo and Lomenzo performed with Zakk Wylde as Lynyrd Skynhead, who upon D'Angelo's departure from the band would become Pride & Glory.[5] In 1996 D'Angelo joined Orange County band Pirates of Venus and stayed with the band through 1998. He was also a former drummer for the band AntiProduct.
