Really good Australian rock band I discovered from my brother. One of the overlooked groups here that doesn't get enough praise.

I've had a couple of their albums over the years, as Angel City.

Really good, underrated band.

Listening to the Dark Room album reminds me heavily of the days as a kid when my brother would crank this band up. Nostalgia for sure. Love this group.

With lovers, buggers, & thieves.
Cool that Great White thought enough of this band to cover "Face The Day" from the Dark Room album. They liked it soo much, that they pret much left it the way the Angels made it.

A really good tribute.

"Face The Day" The Angles (1980)




"Face The Day" Great White (1986)

Have Dark Room and Night Attack on vinyl also. Two of their classic albums along with Beyond Salvation which I seek on vinyl also.

Love the song Backstreet Pickup.
