Angel of Salvation is the eighth studio album by the Japanese power metal/neo-classical metal band Galneryus, released on October 10, 2012. The 10-song album featured two songs from the single "Hunting For Your Dream": the titular song and "Temptation Through the Night", the latter which was featured as a "work in progress" version. The full album version of the title track "Angel of Salvation", which interpolates "Violin Concerto in D major, Op. 35" by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky,[1] is Galneryus' longest song to date at 14 minutes and 42 seconds long; twice as long as the song's music video.[2] The song is also the first to feature a guest vocalist in a studio album by Galneryus in Akane Liv from the band LIV MOON.[3] For the album and tour, Syu switched from a Hughes and Kettner amplifier to a Diezel Hagen amplifier and cabinet. This was also shown in the "Angel of Salvation" music video.[4] Syu reverted to his ESP Crying Star Rebel signature guitar for the "Under the Promised Flag Tour" with modifications to the humbuckers.[5][6][7] "Hunting for Your Dream" was used as the second closing theme for the new Hunter × Hunter anime adaptation.[8]
