I'm in Australia and Acid Bath have got a good following down here even though their records were banned for awhile. We had our version of the "satanic panic" in the 90's so because of the covers they wouldn't stock them. Hope to see Goatwhore at some point so get your asses down here Sammy!

    About 8-9 years ago, my old band Decay Sequence did a live cover of Acid Baths - Dr Suess is Dead. Always wished Sammy saw, or was there that night. It's on video here on RUclips. Hope he reads this. Old video. Grainy, a bit bassey, Crowd is hard to see, but a great cover. Copy - Paste this in - "Decay Sequence Acid Bath cover Dr Seuss is Dead" here on RUclips. Hope Sammy see's this comment. Much respect. Sammy, and Acid Bath, are one of my biggest influences. Goatwhore is awesome. So glad Sammy is still relevant.

    About WAV format, and other audio formats: WAV is a lossless type of audio file, that was created partly by Microsoft. Lossless meaning that the audio isn't compressed. MP3 files are compressed, and with some music, you lose some of the lesser heard parts of a song because of such compression. WAV is a larger file size, sometimes even in comparison to other lossless file types, but that depends on who created the file to begin with. FLAC is also a lossless file type, but it stands out from WAV in that it is royalty free, open format/open source, unlike the others. I don't remember the figures exactly, but if you released a product in MP3 format, you'd have to pay for a license to use that audio format after the product reached so much money ($25,000?) in revenue.
    In short: WAV and FLAC are not compressed, so you hear everything. It's a lot more crisp. MP3 is compressed.
