ARTIST : Armored Saint TITLE : Symbol Of Salvation LABEL : Metal Blade / Warner Brothers Brazil RECORD GRADE : NM SLEEVE GRADE : NM NOTES : Official Brazilian pressing from 1991. Includes printed inner. KILLER RECORD Armored Saint – Symbol of Salvation Released in 1991, Symbol of Salvation is widely regarded as Armored Saint's magnum opus. The album marks a triumphant comeback for the band after a series of hardships, including the tragic loss of founding guitarist Dave Prichard, who passed away from leukemia during its production. The album serves as both a tribute to Prichard—who contributed to the songwriting—and a demonstration of the band's resilience and creative strength. Musically, Symbol of Salvation showcases a blend of traditional heavy metal and hard rock with a heightened sense of melody and maturity in songwriting. Tracks like "Reign of Fire" and "Last Train Home" combine blistering riffs with soaring vocal performances by John Bush, whose expressive range and emotive delivery are highlights of the album. The lyrics range from introspective and emotional to defiant and anthemic, creating a dynamic listening experience. The production, helmed by Dave Jerden (known for his work with Jane’s Addiction and Alice in Chains), gives the album a crisp, modern sound while retaining the raw energy of classic heavy metal. Though Symbol of Salvation did not achieve mainstream commercial success, it has since become a cult classic, praised for its craftsmanship and emotional depth. It remains a pivotal release in Armored Saint’s catalog and one of the most respected albums in 1990s heavy metal. 50 Similar Artists to Armored Saint Metal Church (Blessing in Disguise era) Savatage (Hall of the Mountain King era) Queensr che (Operation: Mindcrime era) Fates Warning (No Exit era) Crimson Glory (Transcendence era) Dio (Holy Diver era) Judas Priest (Painkiller era) Iron Maiden (Seventh Son of a Seventh Son era) Accept (Balls to the Wall era) Saxon (Power & the Glory era) Riot (Thundersteel era) W.A.S.P.
