I know for a fact that those of us who were huge fans back in the day continued to push their music on people for decades, and followed all their other bands since.. Dax's voice created a decent following, and lifelong friendships have been created over a mutual love of this band...
One of the sickest Bands ever!!! Far more too them than you give credit. Lyrics, acoustic, layered sick ass tones. Sludge Metal is wrong. They serve up the perfect combo of arrangement and songwriting. over all themes....Still a fave from the beginning!
48 here and jammed both of my Acid bath albums regularly through my late teens and 20s. Still have a few of those songs on my playlist to this day, as well as Dax Rigg's next band Agents of Oblivion. I think I remember hearing Acid Bath ended when one of the member's was hit by a drunk driver and died, maybe with his whole family or something awful like that too. Long time ago so my memory might be a bit off.
I live about 80 miles from New Orleans and a musician and shop foreman at a dealership I was working at in the 90's gave me a promotional type cd of a band called Acid Bath that was too heavy for his taste but I thought it was pretty damn good. I unfortunately lost the CD along with thousands of vinyl records and many other things in a house fire in 2017.
Didn't realize it was so "sudden"... I knew of them then, and I still know of them now. That's like asking why people still enjoy a Slayer album that came out 40 years ago, or bother with Cirith Ungol despite the band having been around since the early 70s. Their music still exists. And seeing as we have all of the world's information in our pocket and we can quickly tap a few times and be inundated with thousands and thousands of bands, the more popular and influential ones are going to pop up time and again. May even influence some people to give them a listen. In the case of Acid Bath, WTKSP has had over 30 years to gain traction 🤷🏻♂️
Yes, there are literally a bus chartered from Louisiana for Sick New World, so we're on way Las Vegas, and you should probably double down on medics, AB pits were fucking destructive.
Acid Bath was huge to all of us in the underground music scene in the 90's. Being a fan of touring acts like Buzzoven and Today Is The Day. These bands would play little shit towns that didn't have a huge venue. Acid Bath contained enough elements that they were popular across a lot of genres. Goth kids loved how dark it was. Alternative kids dug it because Dax had a voice. Death metal kids liked the heaviness. Down and Stoner Rock have nothing to do with knowing Acid Bath though I understand the assumption due to the geography. Acid Bath called it quits after their bassist/backup singer died with most of his family in a traffic accident. Dax and Sammy have both had very successful careers since that time. Dax has had songs in movies and had one song featured as the theme song to a WB zombie show that again appealed to the Goth world. There have been rumors of the band getting back together for over a decade. This reunion did come as a shock but not as far as the popularity of it.
Rotten Ronnie is who they're talking about. I've heard Mike threw something threw his window or something. Dax's Agent's of Oblivion were also "originally" on Rotten Records. The most important thing about this show is,...RIP AUDIE PITRE.
Why are the gaining fame .cause noone is like them they ain't like noone.lived it .I have introduced this to so many people.im proud of that so much .love to acid bath!,
