Sick of It All vocalist Lou Koller has shared the unfortunate news that his cancer has returned just four months after being declared “cancer-free.” The frontman, who underwent chemotherapy last year following the discovery of an esophageal tumor, posted a video message earlier today (30) through the band’s social media channels.
The following caption accompanied the clip:
“So bad news is the cancer has returned. So it’s back to square one and start the treatments again. I’ll try to keep you updated as much as possible. Thank you for your love and support. “
In the video, Koller further explained:
“Hey, everybody. What’s up? It’s Lou here. I don’t know if you could tell it’s me, with my new skeletal look that I have going on. Here’s an update for you. It’s not what I wanna make, but, unfortunately, the cancer’s come back and he brought some friends with him. I was having a really hard time with my recovery. I was having a tough time gaining weight and keeping food down. So I had some scans done, and sure enough, he is back. But we’re gonna take it day by day and see what happens. I wanna thank you all again for your moral support. The way you all reach out to me still is very — thank you very much. But I’ll keep you updated and let you know how it goes. All right? We’ll see you soon.”
In November 2024, a benefit concert titled I’m In The Fight With Lou was held at Irving Plaza in New York City. Sick Of It All’s latest album remains 2018’s Wake the Sleeping Dragon!. We wish Koller strength and support as he undergoes treatment during this difficult time.
