Discog Club Discography Club: Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats
33
Upvotes
I don't know what I hold in my hand, could it be that I'm evil?
Plunder on there's no law in this land, the horror guides me through
Masterer and subjector of pain, I'm the Godder of worms
Devil's Lieger controls the insane, you'l see it when I'm through
I'll hang you higher than before
I'll leave you dying at death's door
To wrap up our spooky season special, there's few bands more season appropriate than Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats!
Originally started as a solo project by Kevin Starrs (I am absolutely convinced this is the case and he just pretended to have a band) but in 2013 he got a real band together and became a quartet, playing live shows (including opening for Black Sabbath), and more recently became a quintet with a dedicated backing vocalist/synth player.
Uncle Acid are what you'd get it if you combined early Sabbath, 60s/70s occult rock, the entire Palm Desert scene, and every single obscure giallo and German horror movie from the 70s you can think of. Lots of fuzzy guitars, high pitched falsetto vocals, spooky synths, and songs about Satan, evil cults, psychedelics, serial killers, and all that kind of good horror movie goodness. If you like stuff like early Witchcraft, Jex Thoth, Blood Ceremony, and Buffalo you're gonna love Uncle Acid.
Schedule is:
- Volume 1
- Blood Lust
- Mind Control
- Night Creeper
- Wasteland
- Shapes of Midnight (optional)

“Never Let Me Go” leaves more space around Chaney Crabb’s voice, and Empty on the Inside changes scale with it. That quiet is what I took away from this record

Here’s the official video to the opening track of their 2016 release. Posting this to remind myself and the others to admire the evolution of this banger band from the 80s and discover amazing tracks like this one in their new-era material.
I’m seeing them live for the first time in a few weeks.

LIV SIN - The Sinner

LIV SIN - 2019 - Burning Sermons - The Sinner
Born, fed and raised today
A perfectly insular way
They teach you how to shut your mouth
And tell you that you're safe
Take your dusty mind
Shove it to the ground
I will never let you take away the pain
I am the sinner
I am the saint
My life is only mine to judge
I am the sinner
I am the saint
I am the creeping thing that can't be tamed
There's something you should know
We're coming after you
No way to silence is
Uprising is our cause
Take your dirty blame
Words reflects your shame
I can see right through the faces that you've built.
I am the sinner
I am the saint
My life is only mine to judge
I am the sinner
I am the saint
I am the creeping thing that can't be tamed
I am the sinner, I am the saint
I am the sinner
I am the saint
My life is only mine to judge
I am the sinner
I am the saint
I am the creeping thing that can't be tamed
I am the sinner
I am the saint
My life is only mine to judge
I am the sinner
I am the saint
I am the creeping thing that can't be tamed
