254.0. "Armored Saint" by UFORIA::WHIPPLE (DEC/CMS Development) Tue Sep 27 1988 19:54

    As a relatively new noter in this conference, I have not yet caught up
    with all the old notes (the new note rate is pretty high, though not
    necessarily full of significant content, I might add, not that I'm
    complaining, but some of us have to wedge some real work in now and
    then...), and as such, have not formed a complete picture of the tastes
    profile of the other noters.

    Anyway, I have not found any mention of a band called Armored Saint.  To
    my knowledge (admittedly stale), they have two albums out:
	1. Armored Saint
	2. Delirious Nomad

    What say y'all?

	> they have two albums out: > 1. Armored Saint > 2. Delirious Nomad My memory may be wrong, but I think they have an album called "March of the Saint" that I have. I had tix to see Armored Saint at the Channel a couple years ago, but the band never showed up (turns out they had problems with their passports and couldn't get in the country!). I think they're OK, although not great. cat
254.2	Now I'm laughin' yeah...	SYSENG::MCLAUGHLIN		`Wed Sep 28 1988 10:32`	7
	Armored Saint's latest release is called "Raising Fear", and it's been out for quite a while now. I was supposed to go see them at Narcissus (Boston) but was sick. A friend told me the show was awesome. I'm more partial to Delirious Nomad. Great album. Sean
254.4	(California?) Raisin' Fear	UFORIA::WHIPPLE	DEC/CMS Development	`Wed Sep 28 1988 11:42`	4
	Re: .2 -- I told you my memory was stale (I didn't have my collection with me at the time). "Raising Fear" -- nice cover graphic -- I think it explains the earthquakes in Los Angeles quite adequately.
254.5		PFLOYD::ROTHBERG	Warning, warning, warning . . .	`Thu Sep 29 1988 03:48`	9
	Re: .2 I believe they played with Wargasm and Formicide (my old band) that night. I like AS, but I actually found them pretty boring . . .
254.6	8^(	NAVIER::STARR	And I'm telling you I'm not going...	`Tue Mar 20 1990 11:29`	6
	I meant to put this in last week, but I forgot.... The rhythm guitarist (I forget his name) from Amoured Saint died last week after a long illness (luekemia). Sad to see him go....... alan
254.7	What a bummer	TRAM::JBLUM		`Sat May 12 1990 00:17`	4
	Tell me that you don't mean Dave Prichard, that man's songwriting was incredible. If it was him it's a shame, God rest his soul LANDSHARK
254.8		METALX::SWANSON	Cannot squeeze the life from maaeeeeee	`Tue Aug 13 1991 19:02`	7
	re: -1 Yep, it was Dave Prichard. I just got their new album, and it says it's dedicated to the memory of him. And underneath there's an address to donate to to help lukemia. \|KS\|

	Bummer! I just heard the new AS and it kicks!!
