Description

2013, Saint Vitus are the godfathers of American Doom Metal. A statement weighing as heavy as this band sounds. Nonetheless this is simply the truth The already legendary story of Saint Vitus began in the year 1978, when guitarist Dave Chandler, together with Armando Acosta on drums and bass player Mark Adams, started rehearsing. After trying out two other singers, the band finally settled for vocalist Scott Reagers under the designation Tyrant. In August 1979 the quartet played their first show and in 1980 their name was finally changed to Saint Vitus. Reportedly this move was inspired by the Black Sabbath song ,,St. Vitus' Dance", taken from the VOLUME 4 album (1972). The English founders of Heavy Metal were as much an influence on Saint Vitus as US Hardcore Punk heroes Black Flag.
