So overrated.
Stanley JJ Jurick there’s always someone who has to put their two cents of negativity on something.
Hugh Jorgan I have been friends with Sammy for 20 years. This is just my opinion. Don’t be a fucking dick.
Stanley JJ Jurick I wasn’t being a dick and I know him also lol

Anyone that’s been to any of the reunion shows, how have they been?
These records sound very difficult to pull off live, especially with a 20 plus year dormancy!
Just wondering if Dax still go it??
Andrew Prevost I saw their first show back. It was worth every penny. They sound even better now that they’ve knocked the rust off.
Zak Walker cool, I already bought my tickets and I’m super stoked, I just wanted to know what the realistic expectations were, thanks!
Andrew Prevost so when I went see the first show with eyexgod they were rusty but this was amazing

Andrew Prevost saw them at Sonic Temple. They absolutely killed it. Literally brought me to tears.
Kenny Kidd SUPER COOL, I’m fired up 🔥!!
Andrew Prevost they sound amazing. I highly recommend you go watch them if you can. And yes Dax still got it
Andrew Prevost they were good at LTL
Andrew Prevost saw them in New Orleans a few months back. They still have it. Dax killed it.
Don’t miss out if they come near you.
Andrew Prevost saw them at inkcarceration, and was blown away. They are on their game for sure.
Andrew Prevost he’s still got it alright! He sounds incredible ❤️
Andrew Prevost I’ve only seen footage but it sounds awesome to me. And Sammy really fills out the heavy vocals. Wish I was seeing them in Toronto this weekend. Never thought they’d be back. Hopefully get another chance
Andrew Prevost I have been to 3. They sound amazing and Dax absolutely still has it! And Sammy’s screams… 3 times! 😉 The subtle changes to some of the songs are something that I found myself looking forward to hearing. 100% “pulled off!”
Andrew Prevost of course he still does. Acid Bath may have been dormant for 20 years, but they all continued to play music.
Aaron Parham actually correct me if I’m wrong but I think Dax didn’t play publicly for 15 years, so I feel like my questions are pretty valid
I’m a super fan, just like everyone else here, just hoping for an awesome experience
From all the comments sounds like it will be BAD ASS!
Andrew Prevost the show in Minneapolis was the most fun I’ve had at any show in the past 30 something yearsi saw them my senior year
Andrew Prevost I saw them a week and a half ago in Austin…they sounded incredible ❤️…it was a spiritual experience. I cried thru most of the first 2 songs, and I’m already trying to figure out where/how to see them again.
Andrew Prevost Dax still got it but sadly, and there’s absolutely no hate here, I don’t think he can pull off songs like The Blue where the majority of it is screaming. Same as A lot of the others where it’s mostly screaming. I don’t blame him. I doubt he wants to blow out his chords. But it’s a bummer we probably won’t get anything new on the current set list. I hope wrong but I don’t see it happening.
Andrew Prevost Saw them at Louder than Louder Than Life !🔥And again in March in The Caverns🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Dax sounded damn near the same as the albums if not better! He’s refined his vocals with solo projects and such! Just like the rest of Acid Bath ! Mike Sanchez “Official Page” Sammy Pierre Duet Zack Simmons Shane Wesley! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥They definitely killed it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Randy Allen Taylor WOW!! Great response I can’t wait!! I’m listening to them right now actually 😂
Andrew Prevost 🔥🔥🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥
Eric N Garcia
Das Wolf
Ugghh I really hope this shit doesn’t impact Goatwhore in any way. Much better imo
Chris Robinson Goatwhore is playing Guam and Fiji soon.
Just joking around. I wish Soilent Green could pull off just one more.
We neeeeed Vegas!!!!! I just saw Acid Bath at Inkcarceration in Ohio!!! I never thought I’d ever get the opportunity to see them and I was blown away! I saw Obituary in Vegas a few years back but they were kind of rushed and didn’t play a very long set. This would be the show of the year to see! Acid Bath, Obituary and Boroness! I’ve never seen them before but I am a huge fan!! Make it happen🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Asheville N.C
Need new material! Seeing them in Baltimore was great for nostalgia, but just like Slayer, how many times are you willing to pay to hear the same songs 🤔
Jessy Ring as many times as I can afford
Jessy Ring Its not even been a year of them playing shows as Acid Bath shows. I could get behind this if it was years and years like Slayer. This setlist is perfect for now imo
WoW!! I would love to be where ever this will take place!
Montréal Canada
Pittsburgh PA Please
They deserve an award for bad mutha fuckas
How the fuck does high on fire get grouped in with obituary?
Robert Purschwitz it’s probably more a out the similarities with acid bath than obituary.
Madrid, Spain pleeeeeaaaaseeeee
Please come to the PNW
Come to Arkansas
I’m still waiting on a Boston date. Sometime in March around that Jersey date would be great.
No Georgia. Can’t say anything about Mobile, even though I saw Dead boy and Dax numerous times there. But it is a dying city
Lol….whats baroness in there for
Franken Furter makes the good bands sound even better 😂
Is their drummer still on probation for domestic violence?
Ashley Christine Source on this? And which drummer?
New England/Massachusetts to be specific
Brandi-Jade Woolf yeah the worcester palladium
Jeff Blackmore hell yeah
Brandi-Jade Woolf you see the life of agony show on the 3rd, killer
Jeff Blackmore I did not, besides acid bath and a couple of other metal bands, I don’t really listen to this genre as much as I probably should haha I bounce around genres but Acid Baths been my favorite band since about 2000
Wayne Watson
Bubba Jones thats going to be a great show
it is at a Craft Beer festival in Denver. $125 for tickets and unlimited beer.
Reese you will be close by for the March 21st show. Chance to see one of your favorite bands
Nonk Chauz been waiting for the return!
ARIZONA PLEASE 🩸🩸🩸🩸🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Auzzie auzzie auzzie oi oi oi
Montréal tabarnak 🤷
Arizona! Come to Phoenix!
Need acid bath and obituary come to st louis mo please
Tommy Thompson that would be amazing!
No Detroit show yet come on!!
We will see you in Cleveland in March and we cannot f****** wait
Yeah high on fire with obituary not even the same ballpark
Steven Hitts what’s the problem with it?
Steven Hitts so what?
Steven Hitts wtf
Olga Herndon just saying sounds like a good bill. But it’s two different styles that’s all I’m saying
I’ve been listening to obituary since I was a teenager I’m 46 now
Steven Hitts ohhhhh I was reading it as the support bands weren’t of good quality
Steven Hitts I hear that but they do have that groove and I think that fits. They’re all legendary too.
But hey everybody has different tastes so there’s something for everybody I guess. I know I’ll be seeing at the bath with midnight in March
Steven Hitts I like all those bands.
In Cleveland so epic
Steven Hitts i first seen them in St. Paul years ago opening for Grave and some other really heavy bands when they were first starting…
So jealous I can’t believe I missed the LA show
Ohhhhh Amy Higdon
Bet they are stoked to play with Obituary!
Dustin Hall Kibbe I bet Obituary is just as stoked to play with them. Acid Bath is their guitarists favorite band.
Fuckin 4 hours away
Didn’t discover these guys till 98. Not gonna miss the first chance I’ve to see them live!
Adam Hudson
Would be sick if Obituary could squeeze in some headlining dates in New England.
Salt Lake or Boise please!!!!!
Play Jezebel and Cassie Eats Cockroaches.
Matthijs Ouderland I don’t think they changed the setlist at all since the first show back.
Matthijs Ouderland yes
Matthijs Ouderland they’ll never play the heavy stuff again. They’ll come out with a new album with 12 different versions of Scream of the Butterfly
Jordy Hulin that’s why it just isn’t the same, and will never be.
Robin Pickett it’s like the Chappelle show.. Almost EXACTLY like that..2 albums 2 seasons. You could never make Chappelle show again. Even if you’d try it wouldn’t capture that same magic. They’re both time capsules. I kinda wish they wouldn’t have gotten back together.. kinda diminishes the magic
Jordy Hulin I wouldnt exactly be upset about that
When my band opened up for them back in the day, they were the best live band I had ever seen. Hard to replicate that youth energy.
Yes yes and yes
Come to Oklahoma city please
This really means that they are probably going to be making some new music. You know, they are going to get sick of playing the same songs.
Atlanta 🙏
Got my tickets for the Grundy County,TN. Show..sold out,glad I got them when I did.
Can the Cleveland show please NOT have amigo the devil, please 🙄
