"Fallen Angel" is the 12th album released by British rock band Uriah Heep in 1978.The ever-evolving story of Uriah Heep found them exploring a more commercial vein than usual on this 1978 release. "Fallen Angel" reached #186 in the US but in Germany the band was at the height of their popularity.

The album was originally released in a gatefold-sleeve, with the lyrics printed on the LP-liner. The artwork was licenced from artist Chris Achilleos, although there seems to have been some alteration to the bodice: the breasts are not so exposed on the original. Whether this was done by Achilleos himself, or even with his approval, is currently unclear. Achilleos' website lists the original artwork as missing.
