SAME! I’m in freak out mode. Do I get tickets? Cross fingers For a tour? Fuck fuck fuck. If this is the one chance I’d literally never forgive myself for not going. Holy shit man!!
THATS an easy pick considering the line up is insufferable poser acts. Besides ministry & down. Flaming lips etc. Acid Bath was one of the greatest and lost unique metal bands of all time. Most relatable and not pretentious like these other hack queens!
I'm from the same area of South Lafourche, Louisiana. Their music was, is, & always will be the greatest combo of creative creatures in all music. This is world changing news!!!!!!!.......
I saw them several times in and around Lafayette, La. back in the mid 90’s. Those shows were some of my favorite memories as a teen. I will never forget the drummer sneaking me into a show once by letting me carry a piece of his kit in. I was only 17 and to my horror it was 18 and up… they were great guys. I hope this isn’t a one time show so I can see them again!!!!
I saw it right after it was posted on Dax's page which I've been following on Facebook for years. I thought I was dreaming but I'm not. I saw what I've been told was the last Agents gig of their one tour. I don't know how but I'm really going to work on getting there.
I've loved the Bath since the late 90s. I followed Daxx, love the new song by the way! like Goat alot, Dead Boy etc. As blown away as I am by the announcement, a big part of me always knew that this reunion was inevitable. I'm almost not surprised. I wouldn't be surprised if they recorded new material after this
I'm so fucking pumped for this. I use to sneak into Breezy's in Lake Charles when I was underage to see Deadboy. Acid Bath has been my favorite band since high school and I'm approaching 40 now, lol
Also, yes the band was from Houma. I grew up there and used to see them play all the time. I was in high school when they put their demo out. The members were all from the surrounding area, Houma was kind of the central location and the biggest city in that area. They were not a New Orleans band, everyone just lumps every band from Louisiana into New Orleans because that's the only city they know lol. They played there but it was a bit of a different scene. Oh, and on the spoken word poetry that was how they always opened every show. The band would be on stage making random feedback noises while Dax read (always something different) poetry before kicking into their set.
At 14:10, they mention Dax's spoken-word poetry. If you aren't familiar with it, check out Old Skin on Paegan Terrorism Tactics. The lyrics for Old Skin, Graveflower, and Venus Blue are some of my favorites of all time from ANY band. Hope they tour after the festival.
14:26 I consider Dax Riggs as the modern day Jim Morrison. Back in the day when they would do shows here in louisiana dax would drop acid and have the bar put on the greatest hits of the doors before they took the stage. Man we had some good acid back then! Blotter and sunshine acid was the king and queen!
As a Louisiana native who was a bit to young when they were still together to see them . Im trying to figure out which organ i can sell to go to this show ....lets gooo
Alex Bergeron (Agents of Oblivion) on bass and Zack Simmons (Goatwhore) on drums. Although that could be tentative, no word yet on Jimmy Kyle (original drummer). Also, Sammy's last name is pronounced "do-A" You don't pronounce the "t" at the end, that's a cajun/French name 😉
I’ve done sick new world twice. It’s not that bad. It’s pretty well structured man. You get set times etc. the first year i went I was worried about it all being in 1 day but it flows pretty well.
Worst line up possible besidesAcid Bath Ministry & Down Flaming lips etc. just insufferable bands and money I’d have to sit through and I’d do anything to see acid bath. I’ll just be happy with the fact I seen and hung out with dad plenty before they were trendy What so ever. Can’t believe he’s actually going through with it. He’s a completely different person now and was always against any idea of it for multiple reasons. They deserve a bigger font over queens of all people. Queens of hack age.
Where did you hear about who's doing what vocally? Thats a BIG responsibility on Sammy's shoulders and would find Dax standing on stage twiddling his thumbs for quite a large amount.
@@allanokeefe104 In an interview he said he can't scream like that anymore. So I'm sure he will sing while Sammy and Mike scream. It's listed they will all three be on vocals.
@@MRSludgedude yeah I remember reading something like that....but also he was very reluctant to even talk about Acid Bath in the past and very quick to shoot down any reunion talk. Maybe said he couldn't sing like that anymore to change the subject haha. There is definitely songs he and Sammy could go back and forth but Cassie or Cheap Vodka just wouldn't be the same without Dax
Apparently he is a "reformed Christian" now and won't be playing with the band. We need to do a follow up... a lot of good info from other fans here in the comments.
@brutalplanetmagazine yeah cause I'm not trying to be around too many dam people , I live about 2hrs from the Columbus and Mansfield shows but those prices are steep for a family guy like me lol but man just to hear them live would be something amazing
They are still playing at Sonic Temple in Ohio in May 2025 but sadly no Sick New World... maybe this works out to our benefit and we get an Acid Bath tour.
Maybe even Slayer though... since King is out promoting a solo project and Slayer did a one off show... so far that's kind of what this is. Dax has a solo record coming out and only one Acid Bath reunion show booked.
This type of "This band belongs to this specific branch genre" bullshit is the one thing I will scoff at loudly. They're a METAL band who blends a lot of different elements including baroque and folk music... I give a runny diarrhea shit which metal subgenre you do or don't think they belong in.
@@brutalplanetmagazine Maybe heed your own advice and when you were talking about them you could of just said they're a metal band but you're the one that chose to say they're a grindcore band so you're the one who got specific with the genre they are 🤣

I mean no offense but....carcass really.ACID BATH sound nothing like carcass at all.or any GRINDCORE...lol .they have death an black metal influences.but they are tiny little sprinkles here and there.Sammy did all th lil bit of screaming on th albums.Dax sings.w a tiny bit of yelling.no GRINDCORE in sight.
God no Corey...wtf...that will kill acid bath w trendy b.s.slipknot sucks.buncha nu metel rejects..ACID BATH will become a trendy shitball if corey taylor gets involved.no no and no.this is horrible news.only Dax will work w Acid Bath.
Calling Metallica or Meshuggah trendy is one of the dumbest things I've ever read in my life, do you even understand what a trend is or how to use that word 😂🤦♂️
Miss me with the: "I believe this band belongs to this specific branch genre of metal" dork bullshit... they're a metal band. Anything outside of that is conjecture.

I've had a google alert set up for "acid bath reunion" for almost 15 years. I cannot breathe.
AMAZING!!!
@@Momma766 you and me. We’re friends lol. I’ve been waiting for this since the year 2000. Lol
@@codro1982 See you APRIL 12! FAAAAAAAACK. I might even go back to smoking cigs for one day only.
@@Momma766 lmao. Me too. Haha. See you there. I’m coming from Tennessee. So it’s gonna be a whole adventure. 🙅🏻
SAME! I’m in freak out mode. Do I get tickets? Cross fingers
For a tour? Fuck fuck fuck. If this is the one chance I’d literally never forgive myself for not going. Holy shit man!!
If Kite String came out today it would still be 20 years ahead of its time.
💯💯💯
Amen!
For real, dude
Acid Bath is easily my favorite band of this line up 🤘
Damn Straight!
THATS an easy pick considering the line up is insufferable poser acts. Besides ministry & down. Flaming lips etc. Acid Bath was one of the greatest and lost unique metal bands of all time. Most relatable and not pretentious like these other hack queens!
Just found out the breaking news today and - man, oh man! - I screamed like the butterfly! ACID BATH is back!!!
Corny bro lol but I feel the excitement! Sorry my bad English!
Been an Acid Bath fan since 96"!! 🤘🤘🤘
New Dax Riggs song release, now this!!! ACID BATH are my all time fave bands. Gotta make this happen!!!!!!
Bassist from Agents of Oblivion, drummer from Goatwhore
thanks for the shout out! also, another kick ass local band, the Dreadfields, will be performing with us!
I'm from the same area of South Lafourche, Louisiana. Their music was, is, & always will be the greatest combo of creative creatures in all music. This is world changing news!!!!!!!.......
I hope they tour on their own too. Thanks for putting this out.
On bass will be Alex Bergeron - he played in Agents Of Oblivion and other Dax projects
Zack Simmons of goathwore is gonna be in the drums!
ACID FUCKIN BATH!!!!!!!
ACID BATH this blows my mind. I know every word to every song they ever played.
I saw them several times in and around Lafayette, La. back in the mid 90’s. Those shows were some of my favorite memories as a teen. I will never forget the drummer sneaking me into a show once by letting me carry a piece of his kit in. I was only 17 and to my horror it was 18 and up… they were great guys. I hope this isn’t a one time show so I can see them again!!!!
That drummer story is so cool.
I grew up with Audie and Sammy. Audie was one of my best friends growing up. Been jamming Acid Bath since it all began. Hoping for a tour also
Bad ass
I really never thought this day would come
One of my wildest dreams come true!! 🎉🎉🎉
Me too i grew up on acid bath and dax but wasnt born in the time acid bath was touring im so fucking happy it feels like a actual dream
This news just made 2024 a lot better.
THANK YOU!!!!!! Omg this is a dream...
Absolutely!!
crying and throwing up at the prospect of seeing my fav band live
sounds beautiful :D
Thank The Gods!
Biggest fucking news in metal history!!
💯💯💯

Alex Bergeron (Agents of Oblivion) will be on bass
Oh fuck yeah!! Thanks for the update!!
I know Alex from way back with Fuel/Fractured. Glad to see him be a part of this, they used to open for Acid Bath all the time.

Holy shit. This is amazing
i know its so exciting

Oh yeah I'm very familiar with Old Skin... I'm an old guy who's been an Acid Bath fan since the 90's. 🙏🙏🙏
Dax's lyrics are what make Acid Bath so hard... we talked about that on a different stream later on. I will have to post that clip.
14:26 I consider Dax Riggs as the modern day Jim Morrison. Back in the day when they would do shows here in louisiana dax would drop acid and have the bar put on the greatest hits of the doors before they took the stage. Man we had some good acid back then!

I never got to see Acid Bath live in person but I can only imagine... you can hear it on the albums.
Have both recordings and I love bleed me an ocean among others.
The new Dax song is amazing 🖤🤘🏻
I was really impressed
I always thought New Orleans was the skyscrapers that "look like gravestones from out here."
@@chriswalkin4952 everytime I see a city high rise from a distance I think of that lyric now.
brilliant
Dax wrote that when they flew to California to play at the Whiskey.
This is a hell of a lineup
As a Louisiana native who was a bit to young when they were still together to see them . Im trying to figure out which organ i can sell to go to this show ....lets gooo
Keep your organs and start a godfundme :D
ACID BATH!
I can't believe it's finally happening
The new Dax song is good!
💯💯💯
The skyscrapers look like gravestones yeah from up here
Been singing this lyric all morning tbh
Fuck yes. 90’s are back baby
Fuck yes
Hope they play a show in Louisiana, this festival sounds like a shit show.
Now if we could just get Gulch back 😢😢😢
Betting money Nola locals are getting a preview this Saturday at the Twist of Lime 🤫😉
Alex Bergeron (Agents of Oblivion) on bass and Zack Simmons (Goatwhore) on drums. Although that could be tentative, no word yet on Jimmy Kyle (original drummer).
Also, Sammy's last name is pronounced "do-A" You don't pronounce the "t" at the end, that's a cajun/French name 😉
I talked to Sammy a couple weeks ago. He said Jimmy has some personal issues he needs to address before he can be apart of this.
Doesn’t look like jimmy Kyle is joining. It Zack Simmons(Goat Whore) on drums. The Acid Bath Wikipedia’s has the members updated
I’ve done sick new world twice. It’s not that bad. It’s pretty well structured man. You get set times etc. the first year i went I was worried about it all being in 1 day but it flows pretty well.
Good to hear, I have heard a lot of negative stuff about it.
Corey Taylor wanted to sing for a reunion
I dont believe you
@@Wytedevil he said in an interview. He's a huge fan, and said the last slipknot album had a homage to Acid Bath.
Dope that he's a fan of the band
Hell yessssssssssss
hoooooly shit!!!
I wish you could use the numbers from Exhorder instead of Zack you're the pentera reunion
Worst line up possible besidesAcid Bath Ministry & Down Flaming lips etc. just insufferable bands and money I’d have to sit through and I’d do anything to see acid bath.

Jimmy won't be back. He's a devout Christian now. Two new members. Heard Sammy will be screaming and dax will do the cleaner parts.
I love the comments for stuff like this!
Where did you hear about who's doing what vocally? Thats a BIG responsibility on Sammy's shoulders and would find Dax standing on stage twiddling his thumbs for quite a large amount.

Dax has to scream or this will be very dissapointing, starting now these guys better get their set list dialed in and practice every freaking week!
I want new music!
Where’s Jimmy??
Apparently he is a "reformed Christian" now and won't be playing with the band. We need to do a follow up... a lot of good info from other fans here in the comments.
@@brutalplanetmagazine he’s available someone just need to reach out to him… that’s what I was told..
I live in Ohio and man I wanna hear just Acid Bath not go to the Festivals out here lol been a fan since 95
Really hope they do a tour
@brutalplanetmagazine yeah cause I'm not trying to be around too many dam people , I live about 2hrs from the Columbus and Mansfield shows but those prices are steep for a family guy like me lol but man just to hear them live would be something amazing
They simply have to do a tour... I am betting these festival dates will generate the interest they need.
They've canceled the show from what I heard. Maybe they "Acid Bath " will still play somewhere.
They are still playing at Sonic Temple in Ohio in May 2025 but sadly no Sick New World... maybe this works out to our benefit and we get an Acid Bath tour.
Someone needs to reach out to Jimmy I’m sure he’s available.. that’s what I was told….
I really hope he jumps on.
Ok so, its not pantera without dime and vinnie? Well then i guess its not acid bath without audie. I guess?
Inspired by the new Linkin Park most likely. Not Pantera. That was 4 years ago lol
Maybe even Slayer though... since King is out promoting a solo project and Slayer did a one off show... so far that's kind of what this is. Dax has a solo record coming out and only one Acid Bath reunion show booked.
Need Jimmy Kyle. What the heck?
I know wtf! His drumming was ahead of its time and is some of my favorite drumming
Some one needs to reach out to Jk,, it’s not the same without him
I was married to Dax's ex wife/bm
Grindcore!? Get a clue
Right lol i was like, no they are not grindcore they are sludge metal with elements of death metal, punk, and maybe some doom metal
This type of "This band belongs to this specific branch genre" bullshit is the one thing I will scoff at loudly. They're a METAL band who blends a lot of different elements including baroque and folk music... I give a runny diarrhea shit which metal subgenre you do or don't think they belong in.
