Narrative:

ATC kept us high prior to approach. Required 3000 FPM descent. Crew was very focused on getting aircraft down to a position from which a stable approach could be made. ATC never gave handoff to the control tower. Landed without a clearance to land. Realized mistake after taxiing off runway and attempting to contact tower on approach control frequency.
