Quiet Riot drummer Frankie Banali has revealed that he’s battling stage four pancreatic cancer.

In a statement posted to Facebook, Banali revealed that he was diagnosed back in April, and says “after several rounds of chemo and other treatments I am on the mend”.

Banali, the only band member left from the Metal Health days, says despite the diagnosis he’ll be back on the road next week and will continue touring into 2020.
