ARKANGEL BIO...
Even if the band exists for 10 years now, it seems to be the beginning of a long and immortal decade, of total war against all, through music and lyrics. With a first MCD 'Prayers upon deaf
ears' (RPP 1998) and a full CD 'Dead man Walking' (GLR 1999) Arkangel have gained popularity in Europe, The United States and other countries. Their music which is undeniably metal,
influenced by HC, acquired a lot of originality but also Arkangels's singer Baldur got a determinant role with his vocals attaining a supreme level of brutality. In 2001, they played at the
Hellfest in Syracuse US followed by more shows in Canada. Over 2002/2003 the band played shows all over Europe, headlined the famous Sant Feliu Hardcore fest (Spain) and got the
chance to play as support for bands such as Machine Head...August 2004, Arkangel recorded their second full album with the help of Koen De Boeve who produced their first MCD. 'Hope you
die by overdose' came out on a label created by the band PRIVATE HELL RECORDS. Right after the release, Arkangel started to play shows in Belgium, Holland, France, UK and got the
opportunity to play in Japan at the first edition of the 'Independence-D' festival together with bands such as The Misfits, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Redchord.... Back from Japan, they
continued their invasion playing all over Europe including countries such as Portugal, Poland where after so many years of existence they played for the first time...During this intense period
of shows, festivals and tours the band continue writing new songs and ask ROUR (ex-ES LA GUERILLA/HANGMAN'S CHAIR) to join the band as second guitar player...2008 the new album is
finally recorded, mixed by Dirk Miers and mastered by Alan Douches from westwestside studio (...mastodon, dillinger escape plan,converge...)...'ARKANGEL IS YOUR ENEMY' is
the title of the new album and will be released by GSR Music in May 2008...
