Hailing from the island of Cyprus, in mid 2006, three youngsters: Andreas Kasapis (Guitars), Christis Isseyegh (Drums) and Christos Papadopoullos (Guitars) decided to form a band that would proudly encompass the tunes of 80’s Heavy Metal, and gave it the name “Lethal
Saint”. Shortly after the formation of Lethal
Saint, in early 2007, Andreas Pouyioukkas (Lead Singer) joined and completed Lethal
Saint’s fleet. Along with various local guest-bassists, Lethal
Saint started to perform live by joining some local festivals along with other Cypriot Metal bands. In the summer of 2007, Lethal
Saint released their first 4-song Demo Album. The album was a great success, so Lethal
Saint carried on, writing more songs and giving concerts all around Cyprus. Then in the summer of 2008, Lethal
Saint was titled “Band Of The Year” in Cyprus, after winning the first place at the “Band’s Fest” competition, organized by
Fishbone Records. Shortly after that, Lethal
Saint started recording their first complete self-titled album in the studios of
Fishbone Records. The album was the released in early 2010 under the label of Pitch Black Records. After the album’s release, Lethal
Saint was interviewed by various local and international radio stations, including “The Classic Metal Show” in New York. Then, in early 2011, Lethal
Saint were asked to participate in a tribute album, by Skol Records, for the band Metalucifer. Lethal
Saint’s cover of “Heavy Metal Drill” is now on the tribute album which will be released at the 2011 “Keep It True” Festival. Now Lethal
Saint is carrying on with their newest creation, this 3-song single which the cover art is made by the well known French artist Chris Moyen, giving more 80’s Heavy Metal tunes and proudly spreading the name “Lethal
Saint” around the globe, supporting
Helstar on two live shows in Greece on the 3-4 of September, and on March 2-3 will perform live on the Up The Hammer festival in Athens along with great bands such as Shok Paris, Pagan Altar, Satan’s Host, Warrant (D), Metal inquisitor, Holy Martyr, Sorrows Path, Axevyper.
