Anghell had a glamurous look, in line with the eightie’s hard rock, but they played an accelerated metal, being one of the all-female bands pioneers in playing speed metal. They also trod on tiptoe the thrash path, and some of their songs, such as “Requiem”, incorporated influences ranging from Metallica to the first Venom via Slayer.

Anghell had a glamurous look, in line with the eightie’s hard rock, but they played an accelerated metal, being one of the all-female bands pioneers in playing speed metal. They also trod on tiptoe the thrash path, and some of their songs, such as “Requiem”, incorporated influences ranging from Metallica to the first Venom via Slayer.
