Acid Bath was a Sludge Metal / Doom Metal band from Louisiana , USA active from 1991 to 1997 . BIOGRAPHY Acid Bath was formed in 1991, in Houma, Louisiana . They recorded their demo Hymns Of The Needle Freak with their manager and producer Keith Falgout in 1993, and the strength of the demo earned them a deal with an indepedent label. On this label, they released 1994's '' When The Kite String Pops '', followed by 1996's, sophomore and final effort '' Paegan Terrorism Tactics ''. Neither gained them mainstream success by any means, but both albums earned a degree of underground acclaim. BREAK UP AND FUTURE After two studio Album s, Acid Bath's career came to an abrupt close in 1997 when Bass Guitar ist Audie Pitre and his parents were killed by a drunk driver. This effectively brought Acid Bath to an end, though manager Ron Peterson later alleged that drug usage greatly contributed to the band's breakuphttp://www.rottenrecords.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=963#7642. While rumors of another album circulated after the band's end, nothing new surfaced. Dax Riggs and Mike Sanchez went on to perform in Agents Of Oblivion releasing one self-titled album until that also ended. Riggs is also the frontman for the band Deadboy & The Elephantmen . Sammy Duet was once a member of Crowbar , but has since left the band. He is now a member of the Black Metal band Goatwhore and Ritual Killer and his Doom Metal band with Kelly Pitre (the brother of Audie) Vual . Audie formed a unique band in 1997, blending Death Metal vocals with the heavy sound of two bassists with no guitars, known as Shrum . MUSICAL LEGACY Despite only releasing two albums, as well as a number of radio edits and some label-endorsed bootlegs, Acid Bath have gained a strong underground following owing to the unique, experimental nature of their music. Acid Bath are best known for blending extreme, and Dr. Jack Kevorkian for their album covershttp://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:gxfyxqe5ldfe~T1. DISCOGRAPHY Albums & Compilations
