SAINT VITUS · V | BLACK LP

Black vinyl, US-Import, may have a little dent.

Background information about 'V'

After a 17-year hiatus, Saint Vitus returned with a vengeance on "V", proving that doom metal's founding fathers still possessed the crushing power that made them legends. This monumental comeback album finds the band in absolutely devastating form, with Scott Reagers' haunting vocals floating over the band's signature glacial riffs like smoke over a battlefield. The opening salvo of "Living Backwards" sets the tone perfectly – a crushing meditation on time and regret that builds into one of the most emotionally devastating pieces the band has ever crafted.

What makes "V" so special isn't just its return to form, but how it expands the Saint Vitus sound palette. Tracks like "Ice Monkey" showcase a more experimental edge while maintaining that bone-crushing heaviness, and "Patra (Petra)" delivers an almost hypnotic groove that burrows deep into your consciousness. The production captures every nuance of Dave Chandler's monolithic guitar tone, making this essential listening for anyone who worships at the altar of heavy music.

Pentagram, Trouble, Candlemass, Cathedral, Sleep, Electric Wizard
