This band started out in a little known town in Louisiana. Dax was originally in a band called Golgotha. Then met with the other members of Acid Bath.

The band was fresh out of the garage so to speak. So they made a demo, titled "Hymns of the Needle Freak".

The band soon started getting recognized at little local clubs in Louisiana. And they released there first major record in 1994, Titled "When the Kite String Pops". Which had some songs from the demo. And also, the illustrations are painted by mass murderer John Wayne Gacy. Click this to hear a sample of "Tranquilized" from "When the Kite String Pops" Tranq

The album was on a small record label. And with no radio play, it was hard to spread the word about Acid Bath except for live shows. But word spread very quickly and positively about the band and before long they was selling out everywhere they played. Then in 1996, they released there second album from the Rotten Records label Titled "Paegan Terrorism Tactics" with the artwork of Dr. Jack Kevorkian.

in less then a year after releasing there second major record, they took a deathly blow to the band. Bassest Audie Pitre, along with his parents and younger brother was killed in a horrible car accident. As him and his family was driving late one stormy night, a drunk driver hit them head on. Rest in peace Audie, you will be missed.

That was just the starting point for the meltdown of the band. Dax Riggs has tampered with such bands as "Daisy Head and the Moon Crickets", and "Dead Boy and Elephant Man". But has sense moved onto the band he is currently in "Agents of Oblivion" which as of 6-22-00 have busted up. Out of the origenal members. Sammy is having the most success. He is currently in "Crowbar" and his own project "Goatwhore". As for the rumors of the existing 4 members (including Dax) making another Acid Bath LP (the infamouse douple CD). It turns out it was only rumor. Even if Acid Bath is just a ink splot on the history time line. They are and probably forever will be my favorite band.
