ARMORED SAINT IN-STUDIO FOOTAGE REMINDS US THAT A BUSHTRHAX REUNION ISN’T AS CLOSE AS WE’D LIKE
Monday, November 9th, 2009 at 2:00pm by Axl RosenbergWhile the members of Anthrax continue to try and convince the world that John Bush is definitely returning to the fold, Mr. Bush continues to pursue a new studio album with Armored Saint – and now video footage of them in the studio has emerged.
What that means is that there will be a new Armored Saint album – and presumably a tour – in 2010. Even though I think it’s looking better and better than Bush will indeed return to Anthrax, he continues to decline to make a firm commitment, and this video serves as a reminder that he has other priorities, too. Because while he’s not actually in this video, I’d be very surprised if he turned around and just left the band high n’ dry – that’s the kind of thing the members of Anthrax do to him, not the kind of thing he does to other dudes.

John Bush did an Armored Saint album back in 2000 while he was in Anthrax. I doubt there will be a big tour that goes along with it since Armored Saint mostly does festivals and local shows these days. You guys should talk more about how awesome Armored Saint is and was.
Bush in Armored Saint was infinitely better than Bush in Anthrax. I want Anthrax to be a decent band again and well the Bush era was their worst.
I like Bush era Anthrax, but agree with Jackal above that with one exception, every Armored Saint album was better than the best Bush-fronted Anthrax album.
Fully Agree
