Arkangel

Arkangel is a notable force within the hardcore and metal scenes, emerging from Belgium in the late 1990s and quickly forging a reputation for their intense sound and uncompromising lyrical content. A prominent entity in the European metalcore movement, Arkangel’s early music was characterized by aggressive riffs, fast-paced drumming, and a blend of hardcore punk ethics with the ferocity of metal. Their works are often dark and confrontational, harnessing a mood of rebellion and discontent, which has captivated a dedicated following.

Following their formation, the band's initial impact was significantly bolstered by their debut EP "Prayers Upon Deaf Ears," which was released in 1998. This piece was emblematic of the band's style, marrying heaviness with melody and setting a high standard for the genre. With subsequent releases like "Dead Man Walking" (1999) and "Arkangel Is Your Enemy" (2008), they strengthened their position in the hardcore scene, consistently delivering raw power and unrelenting honesty in their music. Their latest work, "Hope You Die by Overdose," continues to display Arkangel’s relentless energy and heavy-hitting messages, proving that the band maintains its edge and continues to evolve within the hard-hitting realms of metalcore. Despite lineup changes and the ebb and flow of the genre's popularity, Arkangel has remained a steadfast and influential presence on the stage and in the studio.
