In my opinion, ARMORED SAINT are one of the best American Heavy Metal bands ever! Despite missing the mainstream by a hair (despite Chrysalis records), they managed to release some great albums!
 
The entire discography is great, IMO. My faves being Delerious Nomad, Symbol Of Salvation and La Raza....just balls out, all guns blazing energy and aggression!
 
Any fans?

I'd say Symbol of Salvation is easily my favorite.  Some of their stuff is kinda corny with the whole medieval thing they used to have, but they're a fun listen.

I only have Symbol Of Salvation and it�s been years and years since I listened to that album the last time. It didn�t make much of an impression on me back when I purchased it, but I�ll be sure to dig it out and give it some spins sometime in the future. I�m not sure but I think I purchased it after I fell in love with Sound of White Noise by Anthrax and learned that John Bush used to sing in Armoured Saint.

I got introduced to Armored Saint through Raising Fear which I purchased. Actually, I got introduced to the through Helloween when I listened to parts of their Hell on Wheels Tour.

Oh and I wrote the bio for Armored Saint on this site, so I guess I know something about this band. Wink

Stooge - that's cool!
 
I think I really got into AS around the time of Symbol Of Salvation. I had heard "Can U Deliver" on a comp in high school, and I liked it, but the video for "Reign Of Fire" really hooked me...that is such a great song!
