Acid Bath

You'll sense the primal power as Acid Bath reunites from their lengthy hiatus since 1997. The Houma, Louisiana legends shaped sludge metal with their dark blend of doom, black, and death metal influences. You'll lose yourself when classics like "Scream of the Butterfly," "Paegan Love Song," "When the Kite String Pops," and "Jezebel" erupt through the venue. The band unfortunately disbanded following bassist Audie Pitre's devastating car accident, making this reunion particularly meaningful.
