Some might recognize artist Tom Denney from his contributions to the band I, Klatus or his Doomed Messiah video ‘zine series, but he’s also done graphics for a slew of t-shirts, album covers and even stage animations. This week’s Wino Wednesday clip is the Denney animation used for Saint Vitus‘ 2010 European tour, set to […]
Yeah, it hasn’t been that long since the last time I had Saint Vitus‘ “Dying Inside” as the Wino Wednesday pick, but there are two key differences: One, this clip of the song, which was filmed during a New Orleans warmup show prior to their leaving to play Roadburn in 2009, features guest vocals in […]
The alarm went off three times this morning. Each one was more painful than the last. Even as I type this, I’m still burping last night’s wine. So of course, when it came time to pick a track for this week’s Wino Wednesday, “Dying Inside” by Saint Vitus was an obvious pick. The song’s a […]
We’re only about two and a half weeks away from Saint Vitus hitting the road to celebrate the release of Lillie: F-65. They’ll be doing a couple dates in the US, most notably at Maryland Deathfest, Scion Rock Fest and Chaos in Tejas, but as I was posting news forum stuff on Thee Facebooks a […]

Originally released by Hellhound and reissued by Southern Lord in 2005, it was no less visceral 15 years later, and more than a decade after that, to say it still holds up is to brutally understate the case. Season […]
The Saint Vitus 35th anniversary tour began May 8 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and will wrap up this coming weekend in Texas. The legendary doom four-piece have been playing their landmark 1986 album, Born too Late — the first to have found Scott “Wino” Weinrich, then recently out of The Obsessed, fronting the band — […]
Kind of hard to believe it’s been five years already since Saint Vitus got going again. But it has. It was April 2009 that the Wino-fronted lineup of the ultra-seminal doom four-piece arrived on stage at the Roadburn festival in Tilburg, the Netherlands, and began the reunion that would lead to numerous North American and […]
I won’t lie: The fact that Saint Vitus were playing on a Tuesday night had added nerdy glee for me for Wino Wednesday prospects. I was going to the show one way or another, but the fact that I could do two years in a row of live reviews for Wino Wednesday was an extra […]
