Background notes

Archive material and source history

A New Kind of American Saint formed around vocalist Saint Augustine and guitarist Sister Mercy, who met in New Orleans. Their music mixed punk, folk, and gospel elements, though the exact timeline isn't clear from what's documented. They put out a debut album in 2005 called 'There's Only One Rule In This Town,' which gave them some attention.

Song titles like 'Don't Let These Tight Pants Fool You, I'm All Heart Motherfucker' and 'Jesus Wasn't Straightedge, But I Am' suggest their lyrical style leaned toward the confrontational and personal. They followed up with albums in 2007 and 2010, then another in 2015 titled 'Apocalypse Now, Then.'

Their work seems to have touched on themes of social commentary and spirituality, but the details about their evolution or impact are sparse. The band's story appears incomplete in the available records, with little said about their activity after that 2015 release.
