Revelation (Armored Saint album)
Revelation is the fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Armored Saint. It was released in 2000 on Metal Blade Records. Armored Saint reformed in the entire Symbol of Salvation lineup to record Revelation in 1999 after six years of being disbanded. The result was a solid album, a natural sequel of their previous effort. The limited edition came with bonus CD-ROM including the complete A Trip Thru Red Times video.

"Creepy Feelings", "What's Your Pleasure" and the Japanese bonus track "Shadows" were originally demoed in 1989 with original guitarist Dave Prichard during the writing sessions of what would become the Symbol of Salvation album, but ultimately did not make the cut.
The song "The Pillar" was originally written for the 1992 horror movie Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth where the band makes a cameo appearance as a bar band performing the song "Hanging Judge" at the 'Boiler Room' club.
