The Angel and the Rain is the debut album of the Italian Gothic metal band, The LoveCrave. It was released in 2006 by Repo Records and in America by Alive Records.[3]

History

The album was in 2006 at rockeyez.com in the 10 best-selling releases of the year.[4]

Style

The Italian quartet, led by frontwoman Francesca Chiara and collaborated on with songwriter/producer Tank Palamara, presents ten songs on their debut album. The band dedicated their focus to "fusing electronic and pop-rock melodies". They also admit the influence of the Finnish band, "Nightwish", particularly on the song "Nobody". The album's melodic quality, according to the band, is partially owed to Chiara, being a "quite passable and interesting singer at work[...] the woman is a lot of fun to listen to". "For some, "The Angel and the Rain" may be too sweet, too sticky. But if you don't mind having to share your music with a few little girls who also scream at other music, you'll get a couple of passable songs here." they remark, when describing the reception the public may have to their style[5]
