Emerging from the Los Angeles heavy metal scene of the early 1980s, Armored Saint are one of those bands that never quite got the recognition they deserved. Founded by the Sandoval brothers, Gonzo and Phil, they were fronted by one of the most talented vocalists of the 1980s, John Bush. Their debut release, March of the Saint, saw middling success; however, die-hards recognize the power that this album holds.
