Armored Saint was formed in 1982 by brothers Gonzo Sandoval (drums) and Phil Sandoval (guitar), and guitarist David Prichard, while still enrolled at South Pasadena High School. Next to join were singer John Bush and bassist Joey Vera. The band released 3 records on Chrysalis records from 1984 - 1988. In 1989 they released a live EP titled Saints Will Conquer. While writing and recording rough four-track demos for their next album Symbol Of Salvation, guitarist Dave Prichard was diagnosed with leukemia. Prichard succumbed to the disease before recording sessions for Symbol Of Salvation began in 1991. He was replaced by Jeff Duncan. Following the successful Symbol of Salvation tour, John Bush was offered the lead singer position in the thrash metal band Anthrax. Unsure of Armored Saint's future, Bush accepted the job. The remaining members decided to call it quits and Armored Saint was officially disbanded. In 1999, with Anthrax on temporary hiatus, John Bush and Joey Vera decided to reform Armored Saint. The entire Symbol of Salvation lineup returned to the studio, and in 2000 the album Revelation was released. The following year the band released a compilation of rare demos and live recordings called Nod to the Old School. In 2010 the band released it's first studio record in 10 years titled La Raza on Metal Blade Records. The band recently released their 7th studio album titled Win Hands Down, which was released on June 2nd 2015.

Of all the Armored Saint shows I've been to, this was my least favorite. There was something wrong with John's mic and we could barely hear him. I think it was just the venue not the band itself.
Trees Dallas, TXJust as good as they were decades ago when i saw them👍. I had a balcony view, Heard dude singing but wondered where he went, looked to my right and he was NEXT TO ME!!!😄, great showmanship!
Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas Las Vegas, NVGreat show last night at The 100 year old Nile, Bush in my opinion is the best Metal singer!! Hope you get to feeling better Joey and the show kicked ass from the Six Grim!!!!
The Nile Theater Mesa, AZArmored Saint was completely on point and sounded AMAZING. Saw them the evening before in NYC, and this show blew that one away I wish that they were headlining instead of WASP!!!!
Franklin Music Hall Philadelphia, PAArmored Saint cranked out a spectacular setlist for openers. They had awesome energy and played out of their minds. In my opinion, they outplayed Queensryche who was also good. Long live the Saint!
