"The sad news is that Armando Acosta, legendary drummer with SAINT VITUS, has passed away at the age of 58. He passed away on Thanksgiving day at 2am, he was 58 years old. Armando was one of the original Saint Vitus members joining the band in 1979 when they were known as Tyrant. Armando's drumming was crucial element to the Vitus sound and when they recently replaced him with Henry Vasquez in 2009, the sound of Saint Vitus changed forever. There has been no official statement per se so I don't want to say no more right now, I am deeply saddened by this loss to the world of Doom Metal and music in general. On a final note, I know from talking to various people over the last couple of years that Armando knew of the danger to his health and refused to seek medical treatment. It is a very sad time for Saint Vitus, their fans but more importantly for his friends and family. My thoughts are with you all. R.I.P"
