Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka hui mele i ka makahiki 1979. ʻO Scott Ridgers (vocals), Dave Chandler (guitar), Armando Acosta (drums), Mark Adams (bass guitar). Ua hoʻomaka ka hui i kāna hana ma lalo o ka inoa ʻo Tyrant. Ua lohe ʻia nā manaʻo paʻakikī i nā haku mele mua.
ʻO ka noʻonoʻo a me ka hoʻomohala hou ʻana o ka hui i hoʻopili ʻia e ka hui ʻeleʻele Sābati, ʻO Iuda Priest, ʻO Alice Cooper. I ka makahiki 1980, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Black Sabbath i ke mele "St. ʻO Vitus Dance, i lilo i mea kaulana loa. A ua hoʻoholo ka hui e hoʻololi i ka inoa ʻo Tyrant iā Saint Vitus. Ua pili ka inoa me ka haipule o ka hoʻomana Karistiano mua - Vitus. Ua pepehi ʻia ʻo ia i ke kenekulia III. no ka mea, ua kāhea ʻo ia i ka hoʻomana i ke Akua. ʻAʻole pili ka inoa me ka haipule. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, he poʻe pā nā mea hoʻokani pila no ka hui Black Sabbath, a ua like loa ko lākou ʻano.

He mau makahiki kaʻu e ʻike ai iaʻu iho. Ua kōkua ka hui kaulana ʻo Black Flag i ka piʻi ʻana o ka hui i ke kahua. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia nā mea hoʻokani pila e kau inoa i kahi ʻaelike me ka hale hoʻopaʻa leo ʻo SST Records.
I loko o ia manawa, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā LP 4 a me 2 EP. Ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui i ʻelua album - Saint Vitus a me Hallow's Victim. A i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o 1986, haʻalele ʻo Ridgers iā ia. Akā, ua kono ʻia ʻo Scott Weinrich (Wino) e hui pū me ka hui. ʻO ke kumu o ka haʻalele ʻana o ka mea hoʻokani leo he hoka. He poe uuku ka poe i hele i na ahamele. ʻAʻole hiki ke hele i kekahi mau hana ma mua o 50 poʻe, a ʻaʻole i haʻi ka poʻe paʻi i ke ʻano o ka hui.
ʻO kahi pōʻai hou o ka noʻonoʻo me kahi leo leo hou
Ua noho ʻo Weinrich me ka hui mai 1986 a i 1991. I kēia manawa, me kēia lineup, ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui ʻo Saint Vitus i ʻekolu album studio: Born Too Late, Live, Mournful Cries. Ma ke ʻano he hui, ua hōʻike ʻo ia i kāna talena ma ke ʻano he haku mele.
I ka makahiki 1989, ua uhaki ka hui i ka ʻaelike me ka hale hoʻopaʻa leo ʻo SST Records a kau inoa i kahi ʻaelike hou me ka lepili Hellhound Records. Ma hope o kēia, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻekolu album hou. ʻO ka holomua a me ka album The Obsessed ua hoʻoikaika iā Weinrich e hoʻokumu hou i kāna hui mua, a haʻalele ʻo ia iā Saint Vitus.
ʻO Christian Linderson ka mea hoʻokani leo hou mai Count Raven. ʻAʻole ʻo ia i noho lōʻihi me ka hui - aia wale nō i ka wā hoʻokahi huakaʻi ʻaha mele ma USA a me nā ʻāina ʻEulopa. A i ka makahiki 1993, ua hoʻi hou ʻo Scott Ridgers i ka hui. I ka makahiki 1995, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album COD, e hoʻopaʻa i ka mea i hōʻuluʻulu ai ka hui me kāna lineup mua. A ma hope o ka huakaʻi i ka makahiki 1996, ua haki ka hui.
He aha ka mea i hana ʻia ma hope o ka haki ʻana o Saint Vitus?
Ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ka hui mele i kāna mau hana, ua hoʻomaka kēlā me kēia o nā mea i komo mua i ko lākou ala ponoʻī. Ua hana ʻo Chandler i kāna hui ponoʻī, ʻo Debris Inc. Ua komo pū me ka mea hoʻokani pila o Trouble. Ua hoʻopaʻa pū lāua i ka album Rise About Records (2005).
Ua haʻalele ʻo Ridgers a me Adams i ke kahua, a ua komo ʻo Acosta i ka hui Dirty Red. Ua hana pū ʻo Weinrich i kāna hui ponoʻī. Ua hele ʻo ia i ka huakaʻi me ka hui hou ma USA a me ʻEulopa, akā i ka makahiki 2000 ua haki ka hui. ʻOiai ʻo kēlā me kēia mea i hele i ko lākou ala ponoʻī, ʻaʻole i ʻokoʻa ko lākou ala.
Hoʻokahi manawa hou
I ka makahiki 2003, hui hou ka hui a ho'okani i ka 'aha mele ma ka hui Double Door. Ua hui hou nā mea hoʻokani pila i ka makahiki 2008. Akā, i loko o kēia manawa ua hiki mai kahi hanana pōʻino. Me ke kali ʻole i ka hopena o ka huakaʻi ʻEulopa, ua haʻalele ʻo Acosta i ke kahua ma 2009 ma muli o nā pilikia olakino. A i ka makahiki 2010 ua make ʻo ia i 58 mau makahiki.
Ua kono ʻia ʻo Henry Velazquez mai ka hui Bloody Sun e hui pū me ka hui. I kēlā makahiki hoʻokahi, hoʻolaha ʻo Chandler ua hoʻolālā ʻia e hoʻopaʻa i kahi album hou. Ua manaʻo ʻia e hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album hou i ka makahiki aʻe, akā ʻaʻole hiki i nā kāne ke hoʻokō i ka lā palena. A i ka makahiki 2011, hele ka hui i ka huakaʻi ʻaha mele, The Metalliance Tour, me nā hui Helmet a me Crowbar. A ua hoʻopaneʻe hou ʻia ka hana ma ka album.
Ma ka huakaʻi, ua hōʻike ka hui Saint Vitus i kahi haku mele hou, ʻo Pōmaikaʻi Pō. I Nowemapa 2011, ua pūlima ka hui i ka ʻaelike me ka label Season of Mist. A laila, aia nā lono e hoʻokuʻu koke ʻia ka album hou i kali ʻia ʻo Lillie: F-65 (hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻApelila 27, 2012). Ma hope i ka makahiki 2010, ua hoʻopuka hou ka hale hoʻopaʻa leo ʻo SST Records i nā disc vinyl me nā album a ka hui, koe wale nō ka mea mua, i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma ke ʻano CD.
E hōʻike nei i ka manaʻo
I ka makahiki 2015, ua hoʻokani ka hui ʻo Saint Vitus i nā ʻaha mele ma Texas a me Austin. A ma hope ua hele ka poʻe mele i ka huakaʻi ʻEulopa. ʻO kā lākou mea hoʻokani leo mua ʻo Scott Ridgers i komo i ka huakaʻi ʻahamele. I ka makahiki 2016, he album hou ʻo Live, Vol. 2.
Mai kona hana ʻana, ʻaʻole i hoʻololi ka hui i kona ʻano. Ke hoʻomau nei nā kāne i ka hana ma ke ala i hoʻomaka ai i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kā lākou ʻoihana mele. A hiki i kēia lā, ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia kekahi o ka lohi, akā hoʻokani nā mea hoʻokani i nā mele a lākou e makemake ai.
