John Bush returns to Signals From Mars for Episode 460 to discuss Armored Saint in 2026, the new album Emotion Factory Reset, Punching The Sky, Dave Prichard, Jeff Duncan, Bob Nalbandian, Anthrax-era songs, Category 7, Metal Blade Records, touring, videos, songwriting, and the legacy of one of heavy metal’s most respected voices.

Victor and John dig into how Armored Saint balances classic heavy metal, hard rock, groove, melody, hooks, and modern production without losing the identity that has defined the band since March Of The Saint, Delirious Nomad, Raising Fear, Symbol Of Salvation, La Raza, Win Hands Down, Punching The Sky, and now Emotion Factory Reset.

The conversation also explores the impact of Dave Prichard on Armored Saint’s DNA, why Jeff Duncan deserves full recognition as part of the band’s history, how technology changed music videos and recording, John revisiting his Anthrax material with Category 7, and what fans can expect from Armored Saint live in 2026.

If you are a fan of John Bush, Armored Saint, Anthrax, Category 7, Metal Blade Records, classic heavy metal, hard rock interviews, metal podcasts, or deep conversations about music history, this episode is for you.
