Acid King Debut

fyeahmetal As debuts go, this has to be one of the most auspicious ones ever. The Acid King sound is already established here, an addictive blend of laidback stoner metal with a touch of rock 'n' roll aggression. It's amazing how much the band can do with a few well-placed riffs - dig the simple but hypnotic lead in "Drop". Favorite track: Drop.

about

The debut EP by band Acid King. It was released in 1994 on 10" vinyl only, through Sympathy for the Record Industry. In 2006 it was combined with the band's debut album, Zoroaster, and released as the compilation CD The Early Years on Small Stone which is now out of print.

The cover artwork features a photograph of teenage murderer Ricky Kasso (nicknamed 'The Acid King'), from whom the band took their name from when Lori S read the book "Say you love Satan"

Their whole discography is great but I keep coming back to this album. I've been listening to this one daily. I bought the LP and don't even have a record player! The guitars remind me of burning logs on a bonfire (fuzzy, crackling and warm) and Dorthia's vocals reverberate like a haunted ghost. Windhand 'effing' rules! btgalitz
