Arma Angelus

Genres	Metalcore Post-Hardcore
Years active	1998 - 2002
Labels	Eulogy Recordings Let It Burn Records
Past member(s)	Peter Wentz Tim McIlrath Jay Jancetic Daniel Binaei Adam Bishop Timothy Miller Christopher Gutierrez

After Tim quit to start a new band called Rise Against, he was replaced in 1999 by Christopher Gutierrez. Gutierrez is now a touring author and spoken word artist. He was replaced as the bass guitar player for one tour by Joseph Trohman (now plays guitar in the band Fall Out Boy). Trohman was not a good fit for the band in terms of knowing about the music style and in terms of stage presence. He was replaced mid-tour when the band flew Chris Gutierrez out to New York for the final half of their tour, including a stop at CBGB's.

In the last Arma Angelus concert, Patrick Stump played drums, Pete Wentz sang, Joe Trohman played guitar along with Adam Bishop, and Christopher Gutierrez on bass.
