Saturday 20 July
The Hi-Fi MELBOURNE
The story of Saint Vitus is a tempestuous one that spans back to the streets of Los Angeles in 1978.
Now considered one of the pioneering, and most influential, bands in the doom metal genre, back in 1978, things couldn’t have been any more different for Saint Vitus, for one, they were originally called Tyrant; later changing their name to Saint Vitus in 1980, for another, Doom Metal was a genre that hadn’t yet been coined.
Long standing original members Dave Chandler and Mark Adams started Saint Vitus, with original vocalist Scott Reagers and Drummer Armando Acosta, back in ‘78. The classic line up featuring vocalist Scott ‘Wino’ Weinrich wouldn’t come into effect till 1986, and would dissolve a mere five years later, with only three studio albums to their name, plus two studio albums prior to Wino.
