Angels of Light were an American folk band that was formed circa 1998 by singer-songwriter and musician Michael Gira after he disbanded Swans, the group he had founded in 1982. The band has marked a distinctly different style for Gira since he left Swans, most noticeably being musically more melodic and less brutal than his previous efforts and with emphasis on acoustic instruments and folk and country influences. All Angels of Light albums were released on Michael Gira's label Young God Records.

  • Angels of Light, manchmal auch The Angels of Light, waren eine US-amerikanische Rockband aus New York. Gründer und einziges ständiges Mitglied war Michael Gira, ehemaliger Bandleader der ebenfalls aus New York stammenden, einflussreichen Noise-Rock-Band Swans. Nach Auflösung der Swans 1997 und dem kurzlebigen Projekt The Body Lovers/The Body Haters rief Gira die Angels of Light ins Leben. Ursprünglich wollte Gira die Band "The Pleasure Seekers" nennen. Diese Idee wurde auf Eis gelegt als sich herausstellte, dass es in den 1960ern bereits eine Band dieses Namens gab. Die ersten zwei Live-Auftritte wurden noch schlicht als "Michael Gira with guests" angekündigt. Alle Alben der Angels of Light werden auf Giras eigenem Label Young God Records verlegt. (de)
