Saint Vitus

Doom metal
Doom metal

Saint Vitus is a Doom metal act. Their sound grew out of Trouble, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Blue Öyster Cult and Alice Cooper. Those roots explain a lot about how Saint Vitus arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Reverend Bizarre, Witchfinder General, Count Raven, Church of Misery and Pallbearer, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Eyehategod, Candlemass, Pentagram, Trouble and The Obsessed, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 37 connections around Saint Vitus, reaching back through Trouble and forward to Eyehategod.
