We had the pleasure of catching Acid Baby Jesus from Athens, Greece and Hell Shovel (featuring members of King Khan & The Shrines and The Demon’s Claws) at Sluggo’s last night here in Chattanooga. Both bands are touring the U.S. together in preparation of Acid Baby Jesus’s new self-titled LP which drops via Slovenly Recordings October 11st.
Earlier this year, the band released ‘Hospitals’, a 3-song 7-inch with the same label that was accompanied with a video for the single ‘It’s On Me’ that can be streamed below… Gritty, fuzzed-out phych-rock that is worth catching live this Fall while they are currently touring the United States… check out their remanding tour dates below and pre-order the LP HERE:
