I have this STEEL ANGEL album, it's definitely not the french band. Judging from the style and the accent of the vocalist, it's probably an american band. Don't have any info for them either and i searched quite a lot to find something for them in google...

ION BRITTON maybe this is absolute another band, not Steel Angel ??
I think if it is actually band STEEL ANGELy, then in this case Google give us any search results. But in Google is empty. No mention, no notes. Total empty

Yeah, i don't know, even the name could be wrong. Either it is a ultra-obscure non-french STEEL ANGEL nobody knows about or it's some other more well-known band with another name that's misleading our google searches.

A private CD perhaps? I downloaded the 1st song and it sounded like flawless US Metal to me, so I'll have to check the whole album when I'm back from work. Didn't sound familiar at all though, sorry.

Sounds great, but don't recognize it. Perhaps it is just what is. Steel Angel (US?) - Inquiete (1992 Cassette)

I am confused by the fact that I can not find anything in Google: by album title (
Inquite) or by song titles. In addition, I think the song titles is wrong.

I even used some of the songtitles in my searches, but google returned nothing helpful.

Google is retarded, so that doesn't say a thing.
But perhaps listening to the lyrics and try figuring out better fitting song titles is the way to go.

There's a few interesting submissions in the US Copyrights Office database. Go to
http://cocatalog.loc.gov/ , click 'Other Search Options', search for Steel Angel with the 'as a phrase' option selected.

Maybe the people behind Google are retarded, but Google as a search engine is fine.
It's helpful to use the quotation marks ("...") when you want your search to be more specific. I did that with Steel Angel and i didn't find any helpful info. Don't know what's going on with this album...

I know how google works, but it isn't perfect in any way. There could well be a website that tells the entire history of this band that google doesn't know of or can locate with any logicaL terms. Sometimes with a retarded use of words and names you can locate something that with logical entries you won't find in a lifetime.

Never occured to me.
However, don't expect to find on page 1 of the results a band that 10 people know about and one of them happened to threw some info on the internet. On such cases you have to try harder with your search and maybe use some of your imagination to find what you're looking for.
I'm not working for Google or anything and while i agree that it's not the perfect search engine in any case, i still think that it is a good one. No search engine i know of is perfect anyway.

I'm confused.
1) Why Mark Borgmeyer isn't mentioned in the STEEL ANGEL line-up as a member/ex-member? And what are those Alias, I.C.U., Tantrum references?
A french Alias AND a french Tantrum???
2) Ben Jackson group released their first album in 2001 according to MA. There's not any info about something they did in 1992.
3) What's the name of the band that released Inquiete? How can it be STEEL ANGEL when Mark Borgmeyer, whoever that guy is, is not mentioned in the line-up of SA? Did he play on the 2nd SA album? If it is so, his collaboration with Jackson doesn't make them "STEEL ANGEL".
4) Maybe it was Mark Borgmeyer who moved to the US for a while.
It seems that there's a connection with Jackson and that Borgmeyer guy, but i'm not convinced that that's the true name of the band or that Borgmeyer is the one MA says to be (Steel Angel member).
