Review

Holy hell, buckle up for a wild ride with Acid Bath's 'When the Kite String Pops'! This ain't your grandma's lullaby - it's a full-throttle descent into the darkest corners of the human psyche. Released in '94, this bad boy cranks the sludge metal dial to 11 and never looks back.

Dax Riggs and the boys weren't messing around when they cooked up this sonic assault. From the bone-crushing riffs to the gut-wrenching lyrics, every track is a rollercoaster of emotions. And let's talk about that range - one minute you're headbanging to screams that could wake the dead, the next you're floating on haunting melodies that'd make Alice in Chains jealous.

But it's not just about the music - Acid Bath went all out with the shock factor. That cover art? Yeah, that's a painting by John Wayne Gacy. Talk about pushing boundaries! Despite the controversy (or maybe because of it), this underground gem has stood the test of time, selling over 37,000 copies and earning its spot as a sludge metal classic. If you're ready for a musical journey that'll leave you both exhilarated and slightly disturbed, 'When the Kite String Pops' is your ticket to ride. - Zane
