Well this is unexpected, and just as Riggs is about to release a solo album:

Dax Riggs' legendary sludge metal band, Acid Bath, has announced its first show in nearly 30 years. The group, who disbanded in 1991 and reformed in 1997, will resurface in April 2025 at the Sick New World metal event in Las Vegas. Alongside them on stage will be Metallica, Linkin Park, Queens of the Stone Age, Tomahawk, The Sisters of Mercy, and Refused, to name a few. It is unknown at this time whether Acid Bath will plan any more performances.

A video posted by guitarist/vocalist Sammy Duet confirmed that the lineup will be rounded out by Goatwhore drummer Zack Simmons and bassist Alex Bergeron (Former Agents of Oblivion).

Opium, Dublin - Friday 4th October
Limelight 2, Belfast - Saturday 5th October



I can take or leave Orange Goblin but I wouldn't mind seeing Conan live.

Troublegum 30th Anniversary Tour:

Thursday October 31st - Dublin Olympia
Saturday November 2nd- Belfast Ulster Hall

Support from Svalbard and Wayfarer. I'd be very tempted by this, bit surprised at the venue choice though. I'd have thought they'd fill a bigger venue.

Very tempted by this. First Maiden, then Swans were gonna be my gig bow out, but I'm a fan...

3 Nov Galway Róisín Dubh 
4 Nov Limerick Dolans Limerick
5 Nov Cork Cyprus Avenue

Tempted by the Galway date. My gig retirement plans are getting shakier by the month.

We're here to help.

Right.

The gist is, if you're on the verge of making a bad decision, check in here first to see if we can talk you down, or at least let you think twice about it. Doesn't have to be life-changing, but it might stave off the fear (not THE FEAR, we are but human) in the morning.

Prime example: I have just opened a bottle of Shiraz, after throwing 7 pints of Arthur's finest into me. I am on the verge of texting an ex who is now a guard and wants nowt to do with me. It will not end well, particularly because she's (Phil Anselmo voice) FUCKING MENTAL.

Help.

That's not important, but it's a bad day waiting to happen.

Might be a case of not spending that chunk of a mortgage payment on the latest Reverend Bizarre reissue....

That kinda thing.

Pre-FEAR help, I suppose...

Any takers?

5 LP set: debut album remastered, unreleased picture disc mix, and Japanese bonus & rare live tracks disc.

CD version out later in the year, I'll get that myself.

Longshot but if anyone has it on CD in decent condition (not the Russian bootleg) and fancies selling, I'd be grateful. I have all the rest of their stuff but this must be long out of print.

I thought there was a Godflesh thread but couldn't find it...

Upcoming boxset of all of the reunion era material plus remixes & unreleased tracks. Sounds good for you vinyl people:

I've just seen this, fairly unexpected. Doesn't sound like there's a happy ending in sight either.
