Armored Saint: Next Steps

Armored Saint: Next Steps

Armored Saint's recordings grow more hellish with age. Compare the vengeance-soaked “You Can Run but You Can't Hide,” a swinging ripper from 1988, to the machine-gun beats of 2000's “Pay Dirt”—it's obvious that the headbangers possess an anti-aging serum. For further proof, blast 2015's “Mess,” a frenetic chugger shot through with scraping howls, intense breakdowns, and even sitar.
