First time at BA
Imagine Black Sabbath and The Beatles teaming up to record a soundtrack for an obscure 70s horror flick. That is exactly the fine line between catchy melodies and oppressive paranoia where Britain's Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats operate. Their sound is deliberately dusty, drowned in heavy fuzz and analog filth, yet pierced by hauntingly sweet vocal harmonies. Starting with their breakthrough album Blood Lust, Kevin Starrs and his crew managed to create a unique micro-universe full of cults, night terrors, and B-movie aesthetics that reliably swallows its listeners whole. Whether you are drowning in the massive riffs of the hit "I'll Cut You Down" or exploring their recent bold homage to Italian Giallo cinema on the instrumental record Nell' ora blu, this trip into the dark corners of psychedelic doom has an incredible atmosphere.
