One of the best Christian metal bands ever! What’s your favorite?
For me, it’s Time’s End. I love almost everything they’ve done, but Time’s End is just perfect.

In the Battle is the album that got me into Saint. It is still my favorite.

In the Battle was a great comeback. We just don’t talk about the original album cover…

The Mark is my favourite (I don't have the Revelation update, which is probably a shame.) Too Late comes in second.
To be honest, with the exception of The Perfect Life, they're all really consistent. The Perfect Life is actually pretty good too, it just needed Josh on vocals.

You need Revelation, it sounds so much better.
Time's End for me on the poll but everything since In The Battle has been top notch. I really enjoyed The Calf. Need to listen to it again, it's been a while.
They should've had a follow up out already by now.

I didn't mind the lack of Josh on it. The weakness of that album was the overly simplistic drum programming. It killed the songs.
I wish they would have redone all those songs with a full band.

Ridiculously difficult band for me to pick a favorite album.
Hell Blade, Too Late For Living, Times End and In The Battle are all amazing albums IMHO. Any one of them could be a favorite for me. (although I picked Hell Blade for this poll). I haven't been horribly disappointed by much of their music with the exception of "The Perfect Life". And I probably still would like that one if the band had called themselves something other than Saint.

Mike, you're making me think! Maybe I should add The Revelation to my wish list...

Time's End is my favorite thus far but I have to admit, I haven't listened to anything after The Perfect Life. No sir, I don't like it. Removed it from my catalog. I just haven't taken the time to go back and get their newer stuff.

Don't let the one EP spoil the rest. They did a full return to form after that and kept hammering down on the classic feel. With the new singer, they have touched on a European power metal feel at times while still sounding totally like Saint.
What I haven't done is buy every reissue. I did do Crime Scene Earth 2.0 because I didn't like the original vocals and the band brought in Josh Kramer to redo them. It made the album SO much better.

I haven’t bought all the reissues, either. I rarely do that even with favorite bands. I did buy 2.0, but that was the only one.

The Mark was probably my least favorite of the "modern" Josh fronted Saint albums, but when they took the master tapes and remixed and remastered them into The Mark it greatly improved the album. I think I have The Mark on CD and got The Revelation on MP3. I ended up doing the same with Crime Scene Earth, I got the original on CD and bought the MP3 of 2.0 (with Josh singing all the songs). So I don't have double CDs of either album, yet I only listen to the updated MP3 albums.
