Angrod
In J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth universe, Angrod (pronounced [ˈaŋɡrɔd]) was a son of Finarfin and lord of the Noldor.
Angrod was the elder brother of Galadriel and Aegnor, and the younger brother of Finrod Felagund. He joined the Exile of the Noldor to Middle-earth, where together with Aegnor he held the highlands of Dorthonion against Morgoth in the Dagor Aglareb. Aegnor and Angrod were both killed in the Dagor Bragollach.
His wife was an Elven lady named Eldalótë ([ɛlʲdaˈloːtɛ], meaning 'Elven-flower'; Eðellos [ɛˈðɛlʲlɔθ] in Sindarin). His son was Orodreth, who escaped to Nargothrond when his father was slain. Angrod was thus the grandfather of Gil-galad, Orodreth's son.
His name was a Sindarized form of his Telerin Quenya name Angaráto [aŋɡaˈraːtɔ], which means "Iron-noble" or "iron champion". This is a reference to his hands of great strength and an early received epessë Angamaitë 'iron-handed'.
House of Finarfin
Earlier versions of the legendarium
In the published The Silmarillion, Orodreth is given as Angrod's brother instead, following non-final versions of the story. This was an editorial decision by Christopher Tolkien which he admitted as a mistake.

Throw It All Away
by: JunkyardWoke up this morning with a cold one in my hand
I could go and get myself another but I've had all I can stand
Cause I don't like nothing about my life today
Think I'm gonna take these bottles and I'll throw ‘em all away
And it boils my blood and it makes me mad as hell
Cause there's no one to blame but myself...
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'm gonna throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'll throw it all away
Living out my dreams, yeah – I haven't got a dime
I used to think I had so much to say; now I can never find a line
And I know I'll regret it until my dying day
If I take my only chance and I throw it all away
And it boils my blood and it makes me mad as hell
Cause there's no one to blame but myself...
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'm gonna throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'll throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I gotta throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'll throw it all away
Get down...
It don't work
It ain't ever gonna pay
It don't work – so throw it away!
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'm gonna throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'll throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'm gonna throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
I'm gonna throw it away
It don't work, and it don't pay
Think I'm gonna throw it all away
It don't work, and it don't pay
I'm gonna throw it away
Just throw it away
