Saints is Destroy the Runner's debut album released through Solid State Records on September 12, 2006. It is the only album to feature Kyle Setter as lead vocalist and Jeremiah Crespo as bassist.

Indie Vision Music gave a positive review to the album, remarking positively on the variation from hard core metal "Aggressive, pop-influenced metal," though noting that metalcore traditionalists would "dismiss the album as too weak."[1] AllMusic described the album as melodic metal akin to Underoath's 2006 album They're Only Chasing Safety. AllMusic wrote that, in the same manner as Underoath, "Destroy the Runner approach their personal lyrics from a Christian-minded point of view, yet vaguely enough that most listeners will be none the wiser regarding their religious affiliation unless they're familiar with the band's record label."
