Angel Down is the third studio album by heavy metal singer Sebastian Bach, released on November 20, 2007. It is Bach's first solo album since his 2001 release Bach 2: Basics. It has garnered attention due to Axl Rose's guest appearance on 3 tracks and Bach's appearance on MTV's Celebrity Rap Superstar.

Reception

In an exclusive preview of the album, Paul Cashmere of Undercover described Angel Down as "the metal album of the year, if not the 21st Century so far." [1]

On October 27 2007, "Back in the Saddle" was played on the Texan radio station Q94.5. According to the station, the phones went off the hook when the song was played and it became the station's #1 most requested track. [2]
