Engelsstaub's music leans toward the ethereal/neo-medieval end of the gothic spectrum, with stylistic similarities to bands like Ataraxia, The Dreamside and Faith and the Muse.

[edit] Biography

Hofmann began the band in 1992 as a solo project, but after releasing the 7" single Unholy was joined by his sister Silke Hoffman and Polish musician Janusz Zaremba, with whom he also co-founded the independent record label Apollyon.
