Metal School - Armored Saint

Underrated and often overlooked, Armored Saint is an LA metal band that deserves more attention than they get. After putting out a great self-titled EP on Metal Blade Records, the band signed with Chrysalis Records, a label that unfortunately didn't know how to market a metal band. Still, Armored Saint powered through and put out some great classic metal albums until they finally reunited with Metal Blade for their masterpiece Symbol of Salvation.

John Bush may be the most underrated singer in Metal

[@mcg5167]

RIP Dave Pritchard, a really good guitar player who was on his way to greatness.

[@jeffalbillar7625]

🙏

[@RemodelingByRy]

So good it took 2 guys to replace him!

[@troykurz9615]

Delirious Nomad is one of the most underrated albums ever. I don't understand the dislike. I found this on cassette when I was fifteen and it took me away from a world of missing my recently deceased father and the hate I had for the world. I'll forever be grateful for that album.

[@jorgeb9715]

I myself got that cassette and I'd played the shit out of it

[@placidodonatello4366]

Same man...that’s a top 10 album for me. Helped me through some rough ass times. Definitely a peak of 80s metal Sorry about your dad, that’s brutal

[@chriskoskela9170]

Delirious Nomad - to me- is about as perfect a metal album was made. There isn't a single filler track and the songs are deep AF, especially considering what was out at the time. It's criminally overlooked when discussing the metal movement of the 80s. Raising Fear was great, but they set the bar so high with DN, it didn't carry as much weight and consistency. RIP, Dave Pritchard.

[@magnuswettermark8293]

Agree totaly. One of my favorite album(i have over 3000)and i still have the original vinyl that i buyed back in the day.

[@chadbrunsvold8936]

It's their best album, with the EP a close second. March would have been phenomenal with better production.

[@beatleguise130]

RIP Dave Pritchard 🎸🤘🏻

[@carbonswap]

John Bush is such an amazing singer!

[@MetalSchoolChannel]

He is! Very unique voice.

[@dragonqueen6589]

He’s okay... but when it comes to Anthrax Joey will always be the best vocalist of Anthrax - read my main comment if you are interested and reply if need be , but do so in a respectful manner. Cheers from the land Downunder.

[@tonytendencies4698]

@@dragonqueen6589 I was an Anthrax fan even before Joey came along and I have to admit that the classic line up has always been the best to see live. I went to see Anthrax in the 80s, 90s, 00s and 10s. My first was when they opened for Metallica in Dublin Ireland in 1986 and I was there as an Anthrax fan. However, this may seem strange but the album I've listened to the most is The Sound of White Noise. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but saying that Bush is merely an okay singer is harsh. The guy is a fantastic singer and his influence on Anthrax was excellent in terms of how they wrote.

[@dragonqueen6589]

@@tonytendencies4698 So you think he’s better than Joey, oh alright ……… what other bands do you think are underrated I guess it’s a little off-topic but there’s a long, long list for me,……

[@tonytendencies4698]

@@dragonqueen6589 I didn't say Bush was a better singer than Belladona and I'm not saying Belladona is better either. I implied that Bush is a fantastic singer and that his time with Anthrax produced some amazing albums. I was lucky enough to see Anthrax 8 times when they came to Ireland and a few more overseas and the best of those gigs was in 1989. They are one of my all time favourite bands and I appreciate the Bush era too. I've always been an East coast metal fan of bands like Nuclear Assault who were moderately succesful and Overkill who were succesful as well as Ian's side project S.O.D. and the associated M.O.D. (all of whom don't get the recognition they diserve).

[@UnrealDrummer]

Definitely. They're so influent and higly mentioned by other heavy metal bands

[@stephenhood2948]

These guys are severely underrated. It makes so much more sense when you hear the story of their early record labels. I never understood why this band wasnt way bigger than it was, now I know why. Symbol of Salvation is a masterpiece.

[@julioortiz8304]

had a pleasure meeting dave at a guitar clinic in La Habra CA before he passed had no i idea at the the time he was in armored saint i had heard of them at the time but never heard their tunes he actually introduced himself to my bro my friend and me way cool guy Bruce bouillet from racer x was doing guitar clinic he even signed my ozzy shirt i had on and i still have the shirt

[@mishaladara]

I was 7 years old heard this band through a Sony walkmen. Albuquerque New I heard a lot about these guys.

[@RockNRollasPodcast]

Dude! John Bush’s voice on Symbol of Salvation! So good!

[@hinjurock70]

Fucking metal perfection. Incredibly powerful yet soulful and melodic.

[@stephenhood2948]

John Bush has always been my favorite singer. I can still remember how blown away I was the first time I heard Can U Deliver, such a masterpiece. Symbol of Salvation, to me, is the only album that could ever stand next to Metallicas Master of Puppets, both are absolute musical perfection, from start to finish. The music John made with Anthrax is far and away better than the stuff they did with Joey, but I do still very much enjoy the Joey era Anthrax. Songs like Hy Pro Glo and Invisible are such good songs, not to mention the entire We've Come for You All album, another album that has no bad song. Long live The Saint!!!

[@suprchickn7745]

John Bush definitely has an iconic voice and that gives them a unique sound.

[@darrenblocklinger174]

probably my fave band of all time. got to see them open for lynch mob and Dio. I remember John jumping off stage to break up a fight between 2 drunks. myself and another guy held him back as security got there to kick them out. I told him this wasn't the way I wanted to meet him and he grinned and lightly hit my shoulder a couple times and we got him back on stage. that night rocked and they are such a great band

[@christophercrowder872]

I don't care what anyone says, "Sound of White Noise" is the best album Antrax ever put out and John Bush is a big reason why. He's an amazing metal singer (not just vocalist).

[@Jimking666]

Only an attention seeking edge lord would even bother to compare these completely different eras like it’s a competition

[@hinjurock70]

I agree. "Singer" and "vocalist" are synonyms though.

[@dartholy]

"We Come For You All" is the best Bush era Anthrax album. In my opinion, it started their comback which was followed by "Worship Music " and "For All Kings. "

[@sycpup]

other than their very first album, the only Anthrax albums worth listening to, are the ones with John singing. he somehow made the other members of the band step up their game and created fantastic albums!

[@hinjurock70]

@@dartholy It's their heaviest album with Bush, but Sound Of White Noise has better songs, in my opinion.

[@MetaLeutenant]

I've once watched thier historical VHS video which comments Dave Prichard has been playing his guitar on live show just before the day of his death. We've lost great gutty guy! R.I.P Dave...

[@johnlheneghan1630]

I love Armored Saint John Bush was a underrated singer

[@onikawhispers7341]

I went to Pasadena city college with these guys. Dave Prichard was the sweetest guy I have ever met. So kind, so patient, he liked jango Reinhardt then. Probably where he got some skills. Also John bush was a friend who used to say” I did a new recording last night, wanna hear it?” And we would listen to the cassette in my truck. They all were cool nice guys. Very honest and real. Good guys❤

[@MetalSchoolChannel]

They seem like it! Glad to hear they are 🤘🏻

[@0000Endgfgv]

"Take a Turn" is my favorite song.

[@skipgumphrey9579]

Been rocking with the Saint since the early 80s, and they still routinely show up on my playlist. They never gained the popularity that they deserved, but I’ll always hold them in very high regard !

[@jeffalbillar7625]

Me too. I used to have flyers of Armored Saint back then.

[@MirVon]

Symbol of Salvation is one of my favorite albums ever. And hearing what the band had to go through before, it even makes more sense now why they suddenly produced such an incredible record!

Dave Prichard RIP 🎸

[@dropbearattack]

I can't count the number of times I have emerged from the bog while the sky turns red.

[@dennisfox8673]

Dave Prichard was just an absolute monster guitarist and songwriter, I guess because of his contributions Raising Fear is my personal favorite Armored Saint album. Though some tracks do outshine others, and it did take a little while to grow on me. That’s probably a double edged sword for Saint though, as solid as their subsequent albums are, I’m always a bit depressed that Dave is gone.

[@dennisfox8673]

100% agree with you. You pretty much took the words out of my mouth.

[@musicmamma]

Me as well!

[@Geerladenlad]

In the early days they used to come out on stage wearing armor. Raising Fear and Symbol of Salvation are my favorite albums by them.

[@hanlowscrapethrough5974]

As a Metal Snob, I never would have gotten into them until John Bush sang on Sound if White Noise which is one of my top Metal Albums of all time. The thing with Anthrax and the 2 lead singers is like Van Halen with David and Sammy each singer made Anthrax almost different bands. The Best of Both Worlds though was outright totally metal badassery!

[@stephenhood2948]

SOWN is such a good album, the song Invisible really stands out to me. I have always thought the exact same thing, whether Anthrax or Van Halen, their music was so different once they changed singers it was like getting different bands out of the deal. I love both eras of both bands, but if I had to pick one as a favorite it would be the Bush fronted Anthrax. Everything they ever did with him singing is absolutely amazing, though it took Vol 8 a bit of time to grow on me. We've Come for You All is one of my all time favorite albums.

[@Aeis_Kalt]

Jon Bush is one of my favorite vocalists, EVER. Whether he's with Saint, or Anthrax, great shit, man. Edit:They really should re-record Raising Fear, because it had some fantastic songs on it. Human Vulture being a personal fave of mine. Out on a Limb, Chemical Euphoria, Crisis of Life, just so much good stuff there that deserves better production.

[@angryagain3801]

I am glad you said "Crisis of Life" That song is outstanding and it should have been on the vinyl version and not just a bonus for the cassette

[@ashlarband]

About a year ago I heard "Reign of Fire" and "Last Train Home" back to back late one night while wasting time on KZbin before heading off to bed. I was blown away. I thought, "Why haven't I ever heard these guys? They've been one of my all-time favorite bands ever since.

[@memyopinionsche6610]

And John Bush still hinting at a ANTHRAX TOUR with him and Joey at the same time as singers for ANTHRAX. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME...

[@johnchedsey1306]

I only saw Anthrax once with John singing back in 98 and it was one of the best live shows I've ever been to. I would pay top dollar to see a set with Joey singing and John getting to do at least five or six of their best songs from his time in the band. Both eras of Anthrax are great.

[@memyopinionsche6610]

I know being a fan of both errors of ANTHRAX. It definitely would be amazing.. And I can compare it to. Just from what he said in his quotes. Yeah he's legit.. Wolfgang Van Halen was trying to convince his father Eddie Van Halen to do a kitchen sink tour.. With DAVID LEE ROTH SAMMY HAGAR AND GARY CHERONE.. All singing all of VAN HALEN'S hits and deep cuts.. Any statements from Michael Anthony is definitely true.. But tragically never happened.. RIP EDDIE VAN HALEN.. But seriously Van Halen fans would have been going ape s***.. And ANTHRAX has a chance to do this. To make the dream possible for all the fans of ANTHRAX.

[@Omer698]

It's cool how your delivery has improved so much over the videos. The added charisma in the later videos is definitely noticed

I triple dog dare anyone to not get drawn in hook, line and sinker when the opening of Can U Deliver cranks. What an epic intro and that March album is my fave Saint release. No love for Delirious Nomad? Shame, great record and from Raising Fear Chemical Euphoria is a an absolute banger. Got to see AS opening for Metallica back when AS was supporting the March album and what a show that was.

That opening riff of Can U Deliver was one of the first things I ever learned on guitar. I spent a lot of hours playing and rewinding that damn tape.

As an LA native of Highland Park, and a die hard metalhead. I always had an admiration for Armored Saint, just due to the fact they were really close to home, being Pasadena, South Pasadena, and El Sereno areas of LA. Looking at the early photo, it looks like the San Rafael Ave bridge in SOuth Pasadena, going over the Arroyo Seco. Metal Rules!

I first got into these guys back in 1989 or so. I love Delirious Nomad. Of their Chrysalis years, it definitely captured them at their best. Symbol, of course, is their finest album and I loved it upon release. I have been very happy that they occasionally get together, record some great songs and make albums when they feel like it. They deserve more attention. Also, Joey Vera has always been the secret weapon of that band. His basslines are fantastic throughout their entire existence.

One of the best metal bands from their time-PERIOD ! It's hard to be consistent on every album when there's stresses from life intertwined throughout the process. ANY great band experience-wise can tell you that. AS is no different. Losing their bro to leukemia was really hard on them. Cancer is always hard ! I know.

Was robbed of the chance to see them open for my favorite metal band, Saxon, in Michigan, when my girlfriend T-boned a car on her motorcycle and busted herself up badly. It was the day before I was to take off to Michigan from near Toronto Ontario, see the band with an American buddy, then tour around on my bike in the U.P. of Michigan for a couple days. Couldn't really live with myself taking off as she lay there in a hospital bed with multiple pelvic fractures. Thankfully, she recovered a few months later. Rock On and live life while you can as you never know when it can change in an instant!
