Blood of the Saints is the fourth studio album by German power metal band Powerwolf, released in 2011.[1] It is the band's first album with songs that had music videos, made for "We Drink Your Blood" and "Sanctified with Dynamite". In addition to recording at Studio Fredman, Sweden, the band recorded some parts of the album in the 12th-century Deutschherrenkapelle chapel in Saarbrücken.

A limited edition of Blood of the Saints included a bonus CD titled The Sacrilege Symphony (And Still the Orchestra Plays), which contained orchestral versions of Powerwolf songs. It was arranged by Dominic G. Joutsen, who previously worked for the metal band Heavenwood.[2]
