Angora were an American band featuring lead vocalist and harmonica player John Corabi, guitarist Jimmy Marchiano, bassist Frank Scimeca, and drummer Robert Iezzi.

The band recorded a demo tape in 1986 before the members went on to other bands.

John Corabi went on to form Saints Or Sinners, which later changed their name to The Scream, with former Racer X members guitarist Bruce Bouillet, bassist John Alderete, and drummer Scott Travis. However, Scott Travis soon left Saints Or Sinners to join Judas Priest and was replaced by former Shark Island drummer Walt Woodward III.

Frank Schmeca and Robert Iezza went on to form The Graveyard Train with lead vocalist Todd Griffin and guitarist Bruce Draper. Jimmy Marchiano is currently a guitarist for the popular Led Zeppelin tribute band, "Get the Led Out".

After The Scream, John Corabi temporarily replaced Vince Neil in Mötley Crüe.
