Lou Koller Sick of It All esophageal cancer 40th anniversary benefit fund

Lou Koller, co‑founder and vocalist of New York hardcore band Sick of It All, died on 24 July 2026 at age 59. The band announced his death on Instagram, describing the loss as “overwhelming” and noting that 2026 would have marked the group’s 40th anniversary. Koller had been diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus in June 2024, prompting the cancellation of a European tour and a two‑year treatment course. He announced he was cancer‑free in May 2025, but the disease returned later that year, ending his battle. Fans and fellow musicians rallied with benefit shows and a GoFundMe campaign that raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for his medical expenses. Founded in Queens, New York, in 1986 with his brother Pete Koller, Sick of It All became a seminal band in the global hardcore scene.
