Sounds great! I think I am going to like the new singer as much, if not more, than Josh. He seems to be a great fit with their style & sound.

As soon as I ordered Rich sent the first song. Sounds really good in my truck and sounds like classic Saint. I am going to miss Josh but Bryan is the perfect replacement!

Just got the second song "We All Stand". Another crunch heavy rocker. Bryan on vocals, outstanding song!

Just got another new song, "Demon Pill". Looks like the release date has been pushed back by about 2 weeks. Rich said he will send out all the downloads on Nov 1st.

I haven't listened to any of the songs Rich has sent thus far. Why? Because I want my mind to be blown over how great this album is as a whole when I hear it for the first time.

I almost did the same thing but it got the best of me, I just couldn't wait. That and the fact that my wife will SWIPE it when it comes in and wrap it up and put under the tree. I didn't wanna wait until Dec 25th to hear it!

I'm always skeptical whenever there is a singer change. I've been a fan of Saint since Warriors and I've always felt that Josh IS Saint. However after hearing those samples I may be on board with this.

They did have the new vocalist sing one of the songs on the Desperate Night album (I believe it was the title track).

He sang that one and parts of a couple of others. So, it isn't like we haven't already heard him with the band.

I always liked the earlier Saint albums anyway, so to be perfectly honest, I'm not expecting to be floored. I will definitely pick it up, though.

I am expecting to be blown away. I like Josh's vocals, but I actually liked the new guy's singing better on the "Desperate Night" track.

Got the complete downloads today. Problem is they are in alphabetical order so I have no idea what the track listing is. One song is around 1:30 and I wonder if it is supposed to be some type of intro to one of the other songs. Anyone know the track order?

I don't. I got them in alphabetic order as well. Maybe I'll hit Rich up on FB and see if he knows.

My guess as to track order:
Broad is the Gate We Will Fight Who You Are Hero Reach The Sky We All Stand Never Same Demon Pill

Actual track order:
Broad Is The Gate Hero We Will Stand Demon Pill We Will Fight Who You Are Reach The Sky Never Same Metal Cross
After my first listen, I must say that the new singer does take this band a bit higher in quality overall. He sounds a lot like Josh Kramer in places but adds some new elements too. As far as people worrying about how this will mesh, you can put your mind at ease. This is SAINT!!!

Yep, very solid album. I really like Hellblade (Hell Blade?) and Desperate Night equally and this one falls in right with those. However, some of the songs are a little over 2 minutes. Would have liked Metal Cross to be a full song instead of less than 2 minutes. But it has been an enjoyable listen over the last 2 days!
