''Angel'' features a mix of [[orchestration|original]], [[indie (music)|indie]], rock and pop music.

The opening theme was composed by [[Holly Knight]] and [[Darling Violetta]], an alternative rock group that performed two songs during the third season of ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer''. Holly Knight was the music producer of the track. The next year, ''Angel'' invited bands to submit demos for the theme music to the show. They asked bands to use "dark superhero ideas" and "Cello-rock".<ref>AngelHART, "[http://websites.cable.ntl.com/%7Efraxis/the_ww/old/features/thomas.html Interview – Jymm Thomas of Darling Violetta – interviewed by Angelheart] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061009171307/http://websites.cable.ntl.com/~fraxis/the_ww/old/features/thomas.html |date=October 9, 2006 }}", ''Watchers Web'' (1999)</ref> Darling Violetta watched pivotal Angel-related episodes of ''Buffy'' such as "[[Passion (Buffy episode)|Passion]]", "[[Becoming (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)|Becoming, Parts One and Two]]" for inspiration. Eventually, Whedon accepted Darling Violetta's interpretation of an ''Angel'' theme as that most suitable to the show. The theme has a slower tempo than the ''Buffy'' theme, as well as heavier use of acoustic instruments such as [[cello]]. In 2005, the band composed an extended version of the ''Angel'' theme called "The Sanctuary Extended Remix", which featured on the soundtrack of the series ''[[Angel: Live Fast, Die Never]]''.

The demon karaoke bar, Caritas, is frequently used to spotlight pop hits. There has also been a soundtrack album, ''Angel: Live Fast, Die Never''. The soundtrack mostly consists of scores created for the show by [[Robert J. Kral]] along with a remixed theme and four other songs from the show. [[Douglas Romayne]] scored 33 episodes of ''Angel'' in seasons 4 and 5, along with series lead composer, Rob Kral.
