Saint Vitus - Ice Monkey


Saint Vitus are a highly influential American doom metal band from Los Angeles. They have been regarded as one of the first bands of the genre, starting out as early as the late 1970s, along with Pentagram and Trouble. For most of their career, the band comprised vocalist Scott Weinrich, bassist Mark Adams, guitarist Dave Chandler and drummer Armando Acosta. After breaking up in 1996, Saint Vitus briefly reunited for a tour in 2003, and are back together again as of 2008.

Todays tune "Ice Monkey" is from the bands fifth album "V", which was released in 1989. This album was the last studio album to feature singer Scott "Wino" Weinrich. Wino's final appearance is on Live (1990).

Enjoy!
