ARMORED SAINT will release a new live album, “Carpe Noctum”, on February 24 via Metal Blade.

Having toured with METALLICA, WHITESNAKE, ALICE COOPER, SCORPIONS and many other artists since their inception in the early ’80s, ARMORED SAINT has always been a highly regarded live act — not only in their hometown of Los Angeles, but also around the world. The only official release to capture this, however, is 1989’s live album “Saints Will Conquer” — until now.

After reforming with their original lineup in 1999 (John Bush – vocals, Joey Vera – bass, Phil Sandoval – guitar, Jeff Duncan – guitar, Gonzo Sandoval – drums), and releasing subsequent albums, “La Raza” (2010) and “Win Hands Down” (2015), to critical acclaim, ARMORED SAINT has been delivering their heavy metal mastery around the globe, joining the likes of SAXON, METAL CHURCH — and even QUEENSRŸCHE in November/December 2016 — on the road. Of all of these performances, the band recorded their 2015 Wacken Open Air festival set as well as their headlining show in Aschaffenburg, Germany, with the intention of giving fans another live release that holds up to “Saints Will Conquer”.

For a preview of “Carpe Noctum”, a live video of “March Of The Saint” from the Aschaffenburg show, filmed by Oliver “Bomber” Barth, can be seen below.

“Carpe Noctum” can be pre-ordered at PledgeMusic in various formats and bundles, with every “pledge”/purchase receiving a digital download of the tracks, plus behind-the-scenes content (including footage from Wacken 2015, plus 2016’s Ozzfest and QUEENSRŸCHE appearances, and more).
