For everyone saying "Emo was created after Acid Bath", you're literally incorrect, and because I'm sick of having to respond to everyone saying this separately I'm just going to pin a comment explaining it, because people aren't able to do a simple Google Search. Emo was originally born out of D.C. Hardcore in the 1980s, Rites of Spring and Embrace laid down the structure for the emo genre long before Acid Bath. Emo was well underway in the early 90s with bands like Sunny Day Real Estate. When the Kite String Pops was released in 1994. Just because your understanding of emo is MCR and Fallout Boy doesn't make me incorrect.
What’s google?

Wait people are saying acid bath created emo? I have never heard anyone say that lol
Acid Bath > All You mentioned.
Acid Bath as far as underground bands go just did everything right. W/out a doubt the biggest band no ones heard of. Those albums are masterpieces
Fyi without can be simplified to w/o instead of w/out
Acid Bath is THE underground band, when I first got into them no one even knew who they were, the internet made them more popular in 2008 and so on, I got into them in 2000, they had just broke up and were extremely underground. Nothing really can ever match the first time I heard those albums, life changing.
@@joesmith9216 Audie died in '97, they broke up very shortly after that.
@@bannedtwice7767 yeah I know, they still played some shows after his death with a different bass player, so I think they were officially done in 98 or 99.
@@bannedtwice7767 that is news to us all
I drove 4 hours through a terrible winter storm to see Acid Bath play in a smaller venue outside Scranton, PA. This would have been late 95 or early 96. It was a low-key enough venue that I just sat on one of the stage's sidefill monitors and watch the whole show. Their understated intensity was just unbelievable.Before the show I really wanted to buy one of the acid bath baby t-shirts in a L, which they didn't have at their merch table and Dax goes "come on, we've got some in our bus". Got to talk drums with Jimmy Kyle.
Later that year, Paegan Terrorist Tactics dropped and I've never been as stoked to listen to a new album. From track one on, it's just a pitch-perfect collection of songs.
Sea Sea's in Moosic. Was a nationally known spot in MRR's "book yer own f@fkin life" which was how we booked tours before the internet. I played there and saw amazing shows there.
@@jaythepainter1 hey! Great day in the morning!
Edit: shit i thought you said MMR
No one cares you old fart. Lay off the hard drugs grandpa
did you ever get that Large t-shirt?
Dude! Very similar experience when I saw them in Tampa, FL. It was a tiny venue called the Brass Mug. Such a surreal experience seeing my favorite band play live while I shot pool on a table like 15 feet away. I've since been to over a hundred live shows over the years, but that Acid Bath show is still my favorite and most unique concert experiences of my life.
Acid Bath, Crowbar and Eyehategod are the unholy trinity of New Orleans sludge. Love them all!
This
Don't forget Soilent Green.
Both Eyehategod and Acid bath had members that played in Crowbar
Saw crowbar a few months back and they are literally gods with band tees on.
Acid Bath ain't from New Orleans
When the Kite String Pops is such a dope album.
👍👍
You mean When the Cheese Piece Drops?
Legit. When I first listened to it, I thought to myself: "The only thing that compares, even closely, to the raw hatred and power of Kite, is Buster by Admiral Angry".
Obliterating music.
Oh shit another Admiral Angry fan! I love Buster and even their doomy 20+ minute send off A fire to burn down the world.
@contr33 Do you happen to like Abominable Iron Sloth??
Acid bath is my favorite band ever
mine too!
@@toxiccryptid nice username! Acid Bath is the best
@@santaisgruntinginmycloset9422 thank ya \m/
bro, you're fucking awesome, they're one of my fav bands too
Correctomundo my man
RIP Audie. He was a killer bass player, and The Mortician's Flame is proof. One of their best songs. I played Paegan Terrorism Tactics for a friend and he described it as a "Bizarro world Alice in Chains..."
check out his project Shrüm. sludge heavy on the bass & percussion, lil bit of psychedelic industrial sounds sprinkled in there. shits beautiful
explains why i also like alice in chains so much
@@MissingElementsGrunge itself is born out of Sludge Metal.
@@boyman7823 tru, explains why grunge is so badass
@@MissingElementsriffs.
My girlfriend and I found paegan terrorism tactics brand new at a record store in our town and I was mind blown. She asked if it was a good buy, and my first response was “if you don’t get it I will.” This was a needed mini documentary. Thank you
Lucky as hell. Also based profile pic
@@MissingElementshow is that pfp based? I don’t think you really understand what that word means
I remember coming across Acid Bath by accident as an angst riddled 13 year old back in the days of Limewire and such. They heavily influenced my thinking going forward and despite the absurd and dark lyrics really helped me through a hard time in my life. Now I'm 32 and they're still one of my favorite bands of all time. Mad respect to Acid Bath. Easily one of the most unknown and underrated bands of all time.
i think i remember the limewire thing, there were a number of low quality nu metal songs just labeled as a bunch of different popular bands - i remember briefly thinking 'whoa this must be a super group or something' and then it turned out to be generic low audio quality garbage - and acid bath was the first name on the list of bands, right? something like that.
i discovered them by accident as well, found a 'kite string pops' cd at school one day and was hooked for life. i also found a skinlab cd at school, the kids at my middle school had some pretty good taste.
actually i also found a fucking shaquille oneil rap cd at school too, now that i think about it, so maybe not THAT good of taste, but. if not for whoever lost that acid bath cd i may have never gotten into them. forever in whoever's debt, i am.
Me too bro. I had a bunch of this on my iPod nano.
This makes me so happy people are still finding Acid Bath.
Dax was onto something, introducing the more melodic sounds. That's what gives it a more visceral and beautifully disturbing element that highlights the "mind of serial killer" theme so well. I do wish they all would have agreed to go further in that direction..
It's a shame that these never got as big as they could have been
yes and no, I actually miss when they were even more underground, youtube made them popular somewhat.
@@joesmith9216 most underground metalheads and Sludge Metal fans already knew them, they`re not "underrated", thats how underground metal is. music for the few who are really interested in it..
@@joesmith9216 they're constantly yanked off RUclips, it's their shit label not the band
@@bryanmcfadden4071Yeah, but their live stuff is always up, plus a couple studio tracks were on yt for years.
@@joesmith9216 lol tf you mean, they are fairly underrated already, whoever is not really into metal would never know about them directly.
I remember seeing Acid Bath several times in the 90’s in Lafayette, Louisiana where they played very frequently. I can’t remember the name of the club on Jefferson Street but saw them there more times than I can count !!!
Probably grant street dance hall
Metropolis was the name of the club
Yes that’s it !!! 🤘
I just discovered them 2 weeks ago and still going strong. These albums are not only great but ahead of there time 🔥🔥
That was a big part of the problem,they came out too early, had came they came out like 5 years later they'd be a huge success.. They are totally underated, Dax Riggs too...
@@reviewguru5457 ditto
Look up dead boy and the elephant man !
check out agents of oblivion (the hangmans daughter is on soundclick) and also check out deadboy and the elephantman demo, dax riggs has the BEST vocals of ALL TYME
Check out Section 8 - Pain is Truth & Nine Ways to say I Love you
I grew up on the same bayou as them and I was born when they banded together in 91. I literally grew up listening to them. Childhood vibes.
91 babies are OGs 🎉
Which bayou? I'm in Hahnville.
@@jasondesselles9168 Pigeon I believe. Either Sorrel, or Pigeon.
91 Louisiana born too. Summer feels like death; godless, we run. Trying like hell to get out of this state by next year.
We went to oaklawn and ellender high school together he was actually my good friend.
When the kite string pops is my entire 1995. Speeding around town in a '72 Nova blaring AcidBath smoking weed trying to come down from a speed binge. Good times.
Lol
I've loved this band since 96. Well done.
same here!
my dad has been listening to acid bath with me since I was a baby. To this day we still listen to Dead Girl together. One of my favorite songs of all time.
I introduced my daughter to them too, her favorite is Cassie eats cockroaches
@@squiggyloveslemons Good man.
Dope band. Their music really takes me back to nights driving about up to no good. I love how organic and fluid their music can be. Toubabo Koomi is a great example of that. Progg-y sludge masterpiece...
Thanks for making this.
Crazy how underrated acid bath is, I know their music might not be for everybody and that their music gets often copyrighted (hence why there is almost no songs of them on yt) but man they are awesome, some of their lyrics are really dark and creative and overrall just great
No no, their music is for everybody, but they just suck for clout
I just recently found this band and I absolutely love them. I literally cannot stop listening to Venus Blue. this whole band were just fantastic
Venus blue rocks
Great documentary, Acid Bath is one of the greatest bands of all time
Love Acid Bath, I’ve introduced so many younger people to this band over the years, I’m doing my part!!
Me too when my oldest kid was a baby I had to put acid bath on for him to sleep lol
I love this band. Their lyrics are seriously under-rated. Of course when I was around 12, just learning about their music right after they disbanded, I liked the faster, louder stuff. Now that I’m older, I have a new appreciation for the slower, more melodic stuff, because it remains just as heavy but also beautiful. I’m not sure how I feel about how much I relate to some of their songs. They capture horrific experiences through the eyes of sadists and serial killers, while still being sympathetic to how horrific these themes are for the victims. If you have been through certain traumas, you wonder what exactly the perpetrator was thinking. It’s somehow cathartic.
I always loved the riffs and vox but the lyrics were honestly TERRIBLE. Almost incomprehensible like written by a senile wanna be murderer that never had the balls to do it himself. Terrrrrible lyrics. Made no effin sense. Agents of Oblivion was a little better but still lacking.
I was lucky enough to see them at The Pomp Room in Sioux Falls, SD. The place was packed for them and they put on one amazing show. For some reason, they really struck a nerve with people in Sioux Falls and were extremely popular there. That was a great show.
My home, small world, they played there quite a few times, the shit that happened while waiting to get in the pomp was almost as entertaining as the shows, sometimes crazier especially when they were there
I own both albums. Plus a bootleg dvd and a demo cd. I’ve owned them since the early millennium. I got when the kite string pops in the mid to late 90s. I worked with a guy from southeast Louisiana and he was shocked that I had heard of them. But I am from alabama so they were pretty big in the underground in at least a few of the southeastern states. Any metal head from Alabama that was around during the 90s knows about acid bath and probably still listens to them. Two classic albums imo.
I had bought both albums too, a couple times over, and I picked up a copy of when the kite string pops at a pawn shop near Auburn, AL. I wondered who would pawn it and why. I can remember hearing Acid Bath on the radio on TK101 IN Mobile.
I have looked for my copies everywhere, probably lost them during Katrina or Rita, lost a lot of comics and tapes in storage. Any chance of you posting them on your channel?
When the Kite String Pops is an album that is infinitely listenable repeatably. I had it in my truck for half a year last year and it never got old. Not many albums have that power. Their second album is great but just nothing like their debut.
Great live band. Saw them many times and booked a lot of their local shows
What's up dude it's Travis from back in the day. I'm back in Laffy. Hit me back here bc I don't do social media
love this band so much. still my favorite metal band ever \m/
Greatest underground band ever !
Agents of Oblivion kicked ass too
As a 21yrs old i started to listen to metal since 2018 and no one in the house and growing up without a father listening to any metal only hard rock from my uncles, but two of my cousin listens to various kind of metal genre but we barely hang out due to distance of we are living and they were surprised how much i listen to this kind of music. When life catches me so bad from 2019 I've been having symptoms of metal health problem and only metal music helped me cope to my madness or anger to my own family and people used my innocence and kindness that gave me this huge wall into my life because i want to be in the military or police but i can't now becasuse i don't want to hurt innocent people because i just get mad or something and this year it becomes more aggressive that i do things that i haven't done before like hurting myself getting wounded and bleeding but i manage to enjoy it, although i still a believer but not really devoted i just use it as a guide how not to do something bad to anyone especially in physical harm. I know i don't need to talk about what's happening to me i just want to express how this band is keeping me sane and not get eaten by my own thoughts. This band really hits i can say this is the perfect band that i listen due to it's complexibility where in one track one part is very chaotic then suddenly gets slow and enjoy the riffs as same as the vocalist you can still understand the words being sang. Maybe I'm lucky i stumbled to this knowing i can't listen to this band except spotify. And i think this is why metal genre is not getting thrown outside the window by the other music genre this genre connects to the listener when they are down and just enjoy the music when they are happy. Also i never put or consider this genre is satanic it's just this genre is the harsh one and people need it too from time to time to balance things because even how good person you are you can also do bad things and it's not good if you don't know the other side. I never did any of this comment to any and just talk about myself i just need to release this and breathe, if you read this till the end thanks, sorry for my english if it's not good I'm from asia so hope you understand. MY SKY WILL BE BLUE soon.
My girlfriend bought me both Acid Bath vinyls for Chirstmas and I was so surprised and grateful - I've been listening to these guys since around 1999!
She's a keeper
I discovered Acid Bath in around 2001/2002 and was instantly hooked. I'm a big fan of all the Dax Riggs projects that came after too and he has to be one of the most underrated singer/songwriters I can think of. Nice to see them getting some long overdue attention. I've also had my run-ins with Rotten Records trigger-happy copyright strikes over the years, although mostly for sharing Agents of Oblivion tracks.
I used to listen to both albums on repeat, such a unique band with amazing lyrics
By far one of the most underrated bands to ever exist.
I’m from Louisiana Acid Bath is fucking legendary. My favorite all time band. I can’t think of a band that made a bigger mark on me with only 2 albums
I didnt realize that they were on spotify now.
They were so fucking good.
Such unique sound
One day they just showed up on all the streaming platforms a few years ago.
Not the case before
I used to use file sharing to to get them.
I wonder happened?
Good for me though
Well over a decade later I still don’t know how to use iTunes
Best metal band ever, in my opinion of course.
Acid Bath gets a lot of unreasonable hate
Acid Bath are my all time favorite band. I’ve always described their sound as a combination of Black Sabbath and The Doors.
Each member of the band brought a unique and distinct quality to the table.
Dax’s solo stuff is great as well. Never quite been able to get into Goat Whore though.
I remember playing a show with Acid Bath in the mid 1990’s. Some really chill guys who didn’t fuck around. Definitely had an Autopsy sound. I remember wondering why they didn’t have a bassplayer, I had no background on them or any idea who they were at the time.
Didn't have a bassplayer?
@@fuckcensorship69 yeah since he died in that crash, i assume the showw aj here saw was one of the shows they played without him
@@perseus391 didnt realize they played shows after Audie passed
@@fuckcensorship69 they played like 3 or 4 i think 💀💀
@@fuckcensorship69 to my knowledge they played just 6 more shows without him with Joseph from Audie's other band Shrüm
Acid Bath will forever be an enigma to me... I can learn all I want about this band, listen to every song, demo, and scratch-track, and I still wouldn't claim to know about Acid Bath.
acid bath and crowbar are my favorite metal bands. props to crowbar since they're still at it. rip acid bath
💯
Seeing these comments about who knows who. I’m too old to be listening to it but I can’t stop. If you love something you love it I guess. If you want something old, Celtic Frost goes back and were one of the hardest for the time.
I first saw Golgotha (soon to be Acid Bath) back in 1991 in Baton Rouge. Who doesn't love a heavy thrash metal band with a unique singer that excelled at motivatin' mosh pits on a nightly basis? I was impressed with their whole presence on stage & the sounds emanatin' from their instruments just filled the whole room with bad-ass electric tunes that synced with human aggression & wonderment. "When the Kite String Pops" remains in my top 5 metal albums of all time! Sure glad I grabbed a copy back then.
Every time I wear my 'Acid Bath' shirt to a metal show, I always get someone saying "SHIRT OF THE NIGHT!"
Love these dudes. Proud to be from Louisiana our music scene as a whole is like a look into a whole different planet
Dr. Kevorkian was from around where I grew up and I met him at the Leo's Downtown.
I was lucky enough to see Acid Bath live in Little Rock. It was a great show. Great band.
Venus Blue is one of my most favorite songs of all time.
In fact I've had both of these albums , since 1997, my cousins are from Louisiana , they knew these guys, their friends, who played in bands knew them. My big cousin Rusty introduced me to them! Thus needs to be brought out to public attention! One of the greatest bands I've ever heard!
I discovered Acid Bath in the early 90s in a small place located at a Food World shopping center(lol) @ Panama City Beach While having a head of acid and omg what an interesting terrifying trip. I was able to catch them several times live across the Gulf Coast. I still own the 2 CDs I bought at their shows.
Always stoked that these guys were semi local. Seen them numerous times in the nineties.
Some of those shows were chilling.
so glad i discovered acid bath a couple of years ago, they quickly became one of my all-time favorites. always been impressed by their sheer range of creativity - so many vastly different songs in terms of sound/genre, and not a single miss imo. dax riggs is a wonderful versatile vocalist, as well. RIP audie pitre - would've loved to see where these guys could've ended up in a different timeline. such a shame.
my mom taught me about acid bath, we're nola natives. acid bath has played a big part in how ive found my style, and music taste. i will forever love acid bath!!
Goatwhore is a spiritual successor in my opinion. Many of their riffs remind me of songs that could’ve been on WTKSP. I know it is due to the fact the guitarist is a former Acid Bath member but I mean you got Jezebel and Cassie Eats Cockroaches laying out the blue print.
PTT had a great ambience throughout too. Graveflower and Bleed Me an Ocean are the highlights of that album imo
Except goatwhore sucks lmmao
Whoa whoa hold on, one of the guitarists in Goatwhore is originally part of Acid Bath? I love both bands and never knew that.
@@timpedersen-voiceacting9642 Sammy Duet is in Goatwhore good sir! Now that you know this fact, listen to some of the songs off of A Haunting Curse and absorb the riffs. You’ll hear some riffs inspired by Acid Baths first album.
@@Elstupidor I'm gonna do that I think. I've only heard a few songs from Goatwhore before. Absolutely love Baring Teeth for Revolt.
@@timpedersen-voiceacting9642 alchemy of the black sun cult is a good start. In fact I believe Sammy lays down some vocals in that song that make it feel like an Acid Bath song
Thx Coolea. This is one of my fav groups ever!!! The energy, the poetics, the ambiguity, the violence.... I just love Acid Bath this is maybe the 1990-2000 ''Doors''. It's like Jim Morrison was reborn, but now he likes death metal.
I was into all kinds of music in the 90s but somehow I missed Acid Bath. One thing I can thank the internet for is bringing them to me now.
Criminally underrated band. Loved Acid Bath since I was a kid and co tinge to listen to this day.
The band got their Gacy painting from the store I helped run. It was literally hanging right next to where I spent a good deal of my day.
As a metal fan, a metal musician, a Gen-Xer, and a Southerner (SE Texas, right up against the Louisiana border), thank you sooooo much for this!
Goddamn, what a band.
I'm a Louisiana native. It's almost unfortunate how relatable "When The Kite String Pops" is. Hot, humid summers - burning and drowning all at once in a dripping mess. The endless droning hum of insect sex. Wildflowers and barbed wire, Roadkill and flies. There are some cities, of a sort, few and far between. And in between, there's nothing for miles and miles. Trees and nature, so dense as to be unnavigable. The rural areas, you find people who life forgot. Some are just elderly, and watched their world disappear as the children and the jobs moved away. Some lost more than just their innocence to rampant drug abuse. And some just want something good to die for. Meanwhile, corruption poisons the well, from top to bottom. Everyone looks out for themselves and their own here, and will remember any slight you've made against them to drive in the knife at your weakest moment. Families will devour themselves over the most trivial shift in social power or economic mobility. And worst of all is that, in time, you seem to become just like them, for your own survival. I don't know if it's surprising that Louisiana hasn't created more serial killers, or if the deaths just aren't being reported correctly because of who knows who. "Welcome to the snare trap shaped like a state: here's your free gun and dark family secret."
So, yeah, I like how Dax and this band really captured the deep-southern wasteland mood.
One of the first bands i found on Kazaa over 20 years ago. Only liked 2 of their songs but they've stuck with me since.
Thank god i still have both albums and the various demos from that time. Didn't know about the record company removing uploads.
I saw just 1 live show with them. Their music was nothing short of transcendental.
One of thebl greatest, and original metal bands, ever. Was luck enough to have seen them 2 times. Once, opening for D.R.I, and then on PTT tour. Will forever be one of my all time fave bands
Still one of the best albums in this genre. The variety and freedom is immense and precious.
In my opinion greatest metal band of all time. Acid Bath is the goat. Dax has mastered every song he ever recorded
He always had the drive ever since we went to school together at 15 we meet and he was destined to go all the way. He gave me his demo at Walmart in the parking lot. Dead boy and the elephant man and I liked it. I'm super proud of my friend.
I use to do acid with Acid Bath whenever they came to Florida. Love those guys! 🤘🏼
This was one of the best documentaries I have ever watched. Thank you.
The most underrated band ever. They are a huge influence in what I listen to in metal. AcidBath will forever be the staple of influencing true art and themes that make main stream uncomfortable. They made a mark in metal that makes the term ahead of it's time so true
Acid Bath was one of the best bands ever, period
Sammy Duet is one of the coolest mfrs I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting a few times. Audi sure had great bass tone, never heard anything but good about him, a damn shame-rest on brother- I could say good things about each of these guys. I was lucky enough to discover them in the mid 90’s- 96…9th grade…..
I used to listen to Acid Bath daily in 95-96ish. My brothers band played against them in a small venue and brought home When the Kite String Pops and it blew my mind, ive been a fan ever since.
Acid Bath has fuckin saved my life i have followed Dax's musical journey ever since and i LOVE everything he has put out
I’m happy I got to listen to this group. My neighbor Chris introduced me to them.
Dax Riggs , Travis Meeks and Mike Patton.. my favorites ever!! ❤️
I am from Metairie LA, about 10 minutes from N.O. I remember going to see them back in the late 80:s at local bars around N.O. Damn good times. Other local bands like Exhorder and Shell Shock always were playing somewhere around N.O. Driving around back then you would always see an Acid Bath flyer on a telephone pole around the city. Sad what happened to many of them.
Dying at the pronunciation of Houma and Thibodeaux lolllll
"HOME-uh" & "TIB-uh-doe". Houma is named for the Houma Indian Tribe. Thibodaux is the last name of some rich French guy.
Found them in late 08 and fell in love with the grit of it. o7
I had this CD on loop in the early 2000’s. UNDERRATED is an UNDERSTATEMENT
Bleed Me An Ocean is my favorite song of all time!
We need a acid bath reunion more than we need a pantera reunion
Best album ever made, when the kite string pops. Been listening to it since released, never get tired of it
Im from Morgan City. These dudes are so loved here for obvious reasons. Sad that Audie passed. They could have done something big i think
I always find their songs stick in my head and go round and round repeating musical phases for days after. Few bands do this like Acid bath. When my mate handed me a copy of When the kite string pops I expected some super heavy death metal poorly recorded. Man was I surprised when I heard the music, in such a good way. One of the bands that set me onto the path of loving Stoner, doom, sludge, rock and roll etc.
Never got to see them, unfortunately, but my cousin introduced me to this band. We were grilling, throwing horseshoes, sitting on extracted car seats on the cement floor of a barn/shop. I'll never forget it. I was 12, 1998 I guess. He called it "Swamp metal" and went on to talk about all this southern metal that I had never heard of. Mostly sludge metal, now that I think of it. Crowbar for the win. Anyway. I hate that this band is so underrated and underappreciated in the genre. WtKSP is a fucking banger of an album. Still in rotation for me...30 years strong
Nobody can understand what bomb was Acid Bath when 's out.
Like the first album of Korn in the same time.
Thirty year after, it still my favorite metal album.
Thanks for the doc
Front 242?
Such a great band, such a shame they are so underrated!
When the kite string pops is such a hidden fucking gem of a record.
Would kill for a third album, but it'll never happen.
If you kill for it it will
I met Sammy Duet a couple of years ago in a book store in Houma before the virus started. We talked for a few minutes. Really cool guy . I had to ask before we separated if they would ever get back together. He said he was down for it but it wasn't just his decision.
I think everyone that listened to metal in the 90's down here in southern Louisiana knew about Acid Bath. I could remember when I wore one of their t-shirts to school and the teacher didn't even realize I had a serial killer on my shirt, they must of thought I really liked clowns.
I saw acid bath live back in 93 or maybe it was 94'. Cant remember as i was young and doing my own "acid" thing.
Years ahead of their time and everything that metal should be. Poetic, grinding, sludgy and brutal with screams that sound like gargling glass followed by almost type o melodic breaks.
Everything they did still holds up today and its tragic just how short a run they had. Truly special and these albums will always have a place in my dark corrupted heart.
Spotify blessed me with this band, I wouldn't find it otherwise probably
I finally found when the Kite String Pops on some some dodgy website and it was an amazing experience. Thank you for helping me add another almost perfect album to my collection 🙏🏿
They came to Fl. in "94" and Jimmy's camaro broke down. My brothers rebuilt the carburator and he thanked them by putting their names on the back of When the kitestring pops. Robert and Mike C of Crestview. I brought some killer weed and traded Dax for a t-shirt. What a kick ass show that was. Theres a bootleg video floating around on you tube from the BitBurger club in Ft. Walton bch.
When The Kite String Pops is truly lightning in a bottle and a timeless album. It sucks that they never really had a chance to be a longer running band, but that likely only adds to their legend
I'm from Galliano, I used to film Dark Karnival at Sammy Duet's house before Acid Bath was started
Lived in Lafayette, LA in the 90's. Saw the about 5 times. Goddammit I wish I would have seen more shows!
I love how he casually had his hand in his pants pocket as he was screaming on stage
