ARMORED SAINT last performed live on July 30, 2005 at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix, Arizona as the opening act for the SCORPIONS. It is not presently clear if plans exist for the band to begin work on a new studio album. The group's last CD, "Revelation", came out in 2000 on the Metal Blade label.

its a while from now, but its still cool to see
 
Great news! I just hope either one of the big Finnish metal festivals books the Saint as well, because Germany is pretty far away... Not likely though.

Anyway, good to see they're not dead. The new studio album is only a matter of time...:cool:
