- Gateway Series: Judging by the comments on many Youtube reuploads of Window to Nowhere and Scream Your Heart Out from the band's 2006 album Aurora Consurgens, many a Brazilian Zoomer was introduced to Angra from the 2007 Vídeo Brinquedo Mock Buster Gladiformers using the two songs for the movie's soundtrack.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: The band got a following in both Europe and Japan.
- Replacement Scrappy: Edu Falaschi is still this to many André Matos fans, especially as he still has some trouble with songs that were written with André's range in mind.
- Tear Jerker: Much of Temple of Shadows is marred by tragedy, from the corrupt Holier Than Thou Catholic mercenaries killing our protagonist's parents at the end of The Shadow Hunter, to the horror in the Siege of Jerusalem in The Temple of Hate, this particular album loved it's absolutely heartbreaking songs.
- Late Redemption from the same album effectively ends with our protagonist dying, realizing his dreams of uniting the warring Christians and Muslims in a new religion were all for naught. At times it sounds like Edu Falaschi is trying to hold back tears singing it.
Would I live again?
What's the new religion? Yeah
And what shall be the bread?
Really I don't give a damn!
Never wanna live again
In this vain emotion
Over for me!- When the band's former lead singer, André Matos, suddenly passed away in 2019, there was a massive outpour of support and memorializing from metal bands from around the world, as well as Angra itself, which especially means a lot given Andre's tumultuous history with Angra. It went to show how much he mattered to the lives of not only his friends and family, but to many aspiring Power Metal fans around the globe.
