Then you’re talking about monolatry or henotheism rather than polytheism.

I believe the angels in Christianity were just the gods of other religions, co-opted to attract converts. The angels in Judaism were likewise the gods from the Canaanite pantheon, demoted as Yahweh was promoted to preeminence.
