Remastered re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by legendary American Doom Metal band.
Being their final album before disbanding in 1996, "Die Healing" saw the band reunite with the original line-up of vocalist Scott Reagers, guitarist Dave Chandler, bassist Mark Adams and drummer Armando Acosta. It would, however, be the last Saint Vitus album to feature Acosta before his death in 2010, and Reagers for 20 years until his return to the band in 2015.
With Scott Reagers' back in the band, Saint Vitus made their darkest album to date. The weird, Punk-influenced Doomsters from LA haven't exactly been making jolly and merry music throughout all these years, but "Die Healing" takes the band's dark sound and lyrics to a whole new sinister level. The distinctive axe-work by mastermind Dave Chandler is the same, if not tighter, than ever, and his wild solos are another welcoming and familiar aspect. Mark Adams does what he does best, i.e. following Chandler's riffs with his bass, and Armando Acosta (R.I.P.) works the sticks the true Doom Metal way.
Musically, 'Die Healing' is simply better than the band's previous albums featuring Reagers; even if the more Punk-influenced sound isn't as prominent as on "Saint Vitus" and "Hallow's Victim". "Die Healing" has a much better production that sounds fairly crisp, at least compared to the first releases featuring Reagers on vocals, and this does the band some well-deserved justice. The production on 'Die Healing' really brings the greatness of the band. The heavy, slow to mid-tempo riffing with a punch and crazy soloing really stand out, thanks to the improved sound quality, and would make Tony Iommi and a certain Jimi Hendrix (R.I.P.) proud, since these two legendary guitarists have had some influence on Chandler's unique style.
Saint Vitus has been able to put consistently good records out, since day one, and "Die Healing" is, along with "Born Too Late" the very best of Saint Vitus. Doom on!

The eighth full-length studio album by legendary American Doom Metal band.
The first studio album in 17 years, since "Die Healing" (1995), by godfathers of American Doom Metal!
The album marks the return of seminal vocalist Scott "Wino" Weinrich in 22 years, since "V" (1990)!! It also marks their first album with Henry Vasquez on drums and their final release with bassist Mark Adams, who left the band in 2016 due to Parkinson's disease.
Seventeen years after the release of their previous full-length, these legends return with yet another masterpiece. “Lillie: F-65” includes the trademark songwriting style so beloved by Saint Vitus fans. There is the cataclysmic and unmistakable guitar sound of co-founder Dave Chandler, leading to amazing and magical solos. “Lillie: F-65” is furthermore graced with the deeply resonant vocals of Scott “Wino” Weinrich, whom many consider to be the classic Saint Vitus vocalist.
Despite hiatus and changes over the past years, Saint Vitus remain true icons of Doom Metal. Now the US legends are back and stronger than ever with “Lillie: F-65”!!!

The ninth full-length studio album by legendary American Doom Metal band.
Seven years after their epic comeback album, "Lillie: F-65" (2012), legendary Doom Metal trailblazers return with their eponymous new album. The band sees the return of their original vocalist, Scott Reagers, as well as the addition of new bassist Pat Bruders (Down, ex- Crowbar), who join long-time drummer Henry Vasquez and founder/guitarist Dave Chandler.
As if in a time machine, the seasoned quartet picks up where their 1985 classic "Hallows Victim" left off. From the very first guitar chords, that unmistakable frying, sizzling, and wailing signature sound of Dave Chandler, any adherent of classic Doom Metal will immediately know: this is Saint Vitus! "Saint Vitus" delivers nothing less than the truest and most enduring representation of original and fundamental Doom Metal!!
