The Angels (Australian Band)
The Angels are an innovative, genre-busting, chart-topping rock band that formed in Adelaide, Australia in 1974. The band later relocated from Adelaide to Sydney and enjoyed huge local success until well into the 1990s. The Angels have been cited by bands like Guns N' Roses, and a number of Seattle grunge bands, as a key influence. For the purposes of international release, their records were released under the names Angel City and later The Angels From Angel City.
On 12 September 2006, The Angels were featured on a postage stamp for Australia Post as part of their Australian Rock Posters.
After spending most of the 2000s apart, in April 2008, the original 1970s line-up of The Angels reformed for a series of tours.
The Angels currently have an australian tour in place commencing on February 15th 2013

Famous quotes containing the word angels:
“Heaven has its business and earth has its business: those are two separate things. Heaven, that’s the angels’ pasture; they are happy; they don’t have to fret about food and drink. And you can be sure that they have black angels to do the heavy work like laundering the clouds or sweeping the rain and cleaning the sun after a storm, while the white angels sing like nightingales all day long or blow in those little trumpets like they show in the pictures we see in church.”
—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
