Engel (band)

Engel is a Swedish melodic death metal band from Gothenburg, formed in 2005. The band features Niclas Engelin (also of In Flames), Mikael Sehlin, Marcus Hideskär, and Oscar Nilsson.

Engel's music is characterized by a blend of melodic death metal riffs, electronic elements, and clean vocals alongside harsh vocals. Their sound has often been compared to bands such as In Flames, Soilwork, and Dimension Zero, due in part to Engelin's involvement with In Flames.
