Houma, New Orleans LA, United States (1991 – 1997)
There are at least 2 artists with the name ‘Acid Bath’.
Formed out of the swamps of Houma, Louisiana in 1991, Acid Bath released their first album When the Kite String Pops in 1994 on a Cali-based record label. Their second and final album Paegan Terrorism Tactics followed in 1996. The band broke up 1997 after the death of bassist Audie Pitre. It’s impossible to categorize Acid Bath under one label, as they combined sludge, death, doom, stoner, blues rock, and even folk in their music. The variation in their music has reached far from the underground into many hardcore, death metal and stoner rock bands. Sweeping across many sounds Acid Bath has put forth 2 albums that will influence many bands far into the future. Acid Bath opened the door for heavy metal to be versatile and emotional, without sacrificing ones character in musical creativity, and without sacrificing the brute force of metal.
Frontman Dax Riggs is currently a solo artist, but was singer/guitarist for Agents of Oblivion, and later Deadboy & the Elephantmen. Guitarist Sammy Duet played in Crowbar and is now in Goatwhore.
There was also a hardcore punk band named Acid Bath in the mid to late 80’s, from New Orleans.

His self-titled project is good, but it's missing two very awesome things: bleakness and lyrics involving fucked up things.
