My Angel is a 1991 EP by Arcturus. Arcturus's first work published on an actual record label, My Angel represents a halfway point between band leader Steinar Sverd Johnsen's original project Mortem, a death metal band, and Arcturus's later symphonic black metal and avant-garde metal albums. Although symphonic metal and black metal elements are evident throughout the EP, the overall style is still gloomy, down-tempo death metal with doom metal influences. Mortem's vocalist Marius Vold supplies vocals for My Angel. Although the songs are simplistic compared to Arcturus' later works, pieces of Arcturus' modern style have begun to take form. Along with five other Norwegian bands this EP was later repackaged as the True Kings of Norway compilation in 2000 by Spikefarm Records
