ARMORED SAINT Working On New Studio Album

December 11, 2008

Veteran California metallers ARMORED SAINT have issued the following update:

"Due to the nature of vague speculation albeit created by your authors here, ARMORED SAINT are officially announcing that they’ve begun writing new songs for a new record due in 2009.

"The band lineup is as it was on 2000's 'Revelation' and 1992's 'Symbol of Salvation':

John Bush (vocals)
Jeff Duncan (guitar)
Phil Sandoval (guitar)
Joey Vera (bass)
Gonzo (drums)

"The band has written close to 12 songs as of now and are ready to enter the recording studio in the next month or so.

"Some working titles include: 'Loose Cannon', 'Chilled', 'La Raza' and 'Black Feet'.

"The band plans on entering the studio with bassist Joey Vera handling the engineering and producing duties.

"SAINT will be headlining one show in Los Angeles at the Key Club on March 6, 2009. Aside from the co-headline tour in Australia in March with DEATH ANGEL and the headlining of the Keep it True festival in Germany in April, the band has no further shows booked at this time. There are a few festivals in Europe during summer being looked at for booking but no confirmations as of yet."

Reality Check TV has posted interview and performance footage of ARMORED SAINT filmed at this year's Rocklahoma festival, which was held July 9-13 in Pryor, Oklahoma. The two-and-a-half-minute clip can be viewed below.
