Saint Vitus - Blessed Night


Sunday, a day that you really should only be relaxed, in other words, do not do more than is needed. But I've certainly been busy, but not jobs, but here at home, also gave me the chance to fix some images, the backcatalogue began to get really big and realized that this will take a whole day to fix, well, I took some time and fixed the two previous gigs that I shot, will be here eventually, also I took my way through the half of the Sweden Rock pictures, which is well done.

Sunday means the classics here at Tune Of The Day, so then we pick one Classic Act that played at Sweden Rock.


L.A. Doom giants Saint Vitus played a very good performance at the Sweden Rock Festival, well played and really heavy. The band formed in 1978. They consist of founding members Dave Chandler (guitarist) and Mark Adams (bass), alongside sporadic singer Scott Weinrich and recently added drummer Henry Vasquez. The band has been regarded and credited as one of the first bands of the genre, starting out as early as the late 1970s, along with Pentagram, Witchfinder General, Trouble and Candlemass. As of 2012, they have released eight studio albums.

Here are some pictures from Sweden Rock!

Todays tune "Blessed Night" is taken from the eighth studio album "Lillie: F-65", which was released on April 27, 2012. This is the first Saint Vitus studio album since 1995's Die Healing and the first to feature Scott "Wino" Weinrich on vocals in 22 years, since 1990's V. It also marks their first album with Henry Vasquez on drums.

In an interview, Wino explained the album title name was in reference to a powerful downer back in the day and that Dave Chandler really had a thing for his downers.

Todays clip is Live in Denver, CO - March 29th, 2011 - Metalliance Tour.
