WHY IT MATTERS
BUCKET LIST. Acid Bath broke up in 1997 and never reunited until last year — if you missed the first wave of dates, this might be your only shot to see a band that defined Gulf Coast sludge and then vanished for nearly three decades. Co-headlining Red Rocks with Ministry is a pairing that would have been impossible to predict five years ago and puts two cult acts with wildly different sounds on one of the best stages in the country.
