"On the ARMORED SAINT front: We have been offered a few shows in Europe this summer so we've turned a few shows into a very short one-week mini tour. This all started with an offer to play at this year's Bang Your Head festival in Germany, which will be our second appearance there. We are also on this year's legendary Graspop festival in Belgium and having played in the U.K. (London) only once in our career, we decided to book our first-ever string of U.K. dates.

"As of now, this is the only plan SAINT has for the year but if anything else comes up, you‘ll be sure to hear of it."
