Lou Koller, the vocalist for the New York hardcore band Sick of It All, has had a difficult journey. People were concerned about his prognosis after he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in June of last year and found out it had spread to his stomach. However, following multiple rounds of chemotherapy and the support of a group of medical experts, it appears like he will (and we will) find out if he is really cancer-free. Koller clarified that he’s still coping with the side effects of the chemotherapy in a video posted on the band’s official Instagram page, but he sounded quite upbeat. He claims that in order to confirm that he is truly okay, he will get a full-body scan in May.
