The Skull's FB page posted a picture of Henry and someone asked if it was Henry from Saint Vitus and their reply was something like "not anymore". |

That makes sense, I don't recall much in the way of promotion for the last record. I only found out about it when SoM posted the full album stream on their YouTube account the day it was released. |

He had to leave the band because of some medical condition (can't remember what) and there was a gofundme for him to pay his medical bills or something. Never heard what happened with that. |

He has Parkinson's. Not sure what has happened since the Gofundme and all that. I don't think that Saint Vitus's FB is even active at this point so I'm assuming that Dave's pulled the plug on the band. |

Saint Vitus have been one of my favorite doom bands since I was a teen, so this hits hard. I'm also glad I got to see him live, I think that was back in 2011 on the Helmet/Saint Vitus/Crowbar tour. |
