PORTUGUÊS:
Fundada em 1977 originalmente sob o nome Lucifer pelo guitarrista Kevin Heybourne, Angel Witch foi um dos pilares fundamentais no movimento que veio a ser conhecido posteriormente como New Wave Of British Metal (NWOBM) e que ajudou a consagrar o heavy metal que se conhece hoje em dia como estilo musical. Assim como a maioria das outras bandas do mesmo movimento, o Angel Witch teve um sucesso comercial bastante limitado ao mesmo tempo em que conquistou uma legião de seguidores fiéis. Apesar de ser alvo constante de críticas e chacotas da imprensa musical da época, o primeiro álbum do Angel Witch, produzido por Martin Smith (o mesmo do Electric Light Orchestra), é considerado atualmente com um dos discos mais importantes do início do NWOBM, muito embora tenha sofrido com seu pioneirismo. Infelizmente o Angel Witch se desfez logo em 1981, ainda que tenha voltado e lançado outros dois álbuns, respectivamente em 1985 e 1986, com outra formação.

ENGLISH:
Founded in 1977 originally under the name Lucifer by guitarrist Kevin Heybourne, Angel Witch was one of the primary pillars on the movement which turned out to be subsequently known as New Wave Of British Metal (NWOBM) and helped set in stone the heavy metal as it is regarded nowadays as a musical genre. As well as most of the bands from the same movement, Angel Witch had a very limited commercial success even though they managed to attract a loyal fan-following. In spite of being constantly criticized and a laughing stock for the music press, Angel Witch's self-titled debut album is considered as one of the most important NWOBM early albums, although they suffered with their pioneering work. Sadly they disbanded already in 1981, having reformed to record other two albums, respectively in 1985 and 1986, with another line-up.
