The Angel and the Rain is the debut album of the Italian Gothic metal band, The LoveCrave.

[4] 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".
