"Sleep of the Angels" is the fifth full length album from Greek band Rotting Christ.

Like previous releases A Dead Poem and Triarchy of Lost Lovers, the band refined their direction to a slower style with more emphasis on atmosphere and melodicism than brutality. Despite mixed critical consensus of the album, it would be supported during the band's first-ever tour in the U.S.

Waldemar Sorychta contributed guitar parts on tracks 3 and 5.

It was produced by Samael's Xy at Woodhouse Studios in Hagen, Germany.

"An 11th track, "Moonlight" is available on some versions of the album, as well as a compilation CD of other Century Media artists."
