You should, of course, know legendary Bruges, West Flanders band
ACID. If not, consider yourself an uneducted oaf, and rectify the
situation immediately.
Pre-dating the thrash scene by a couple of years, ACID's simplistic
yet effective uptempo Heavy Metal was a breath of fresh air in the
metal scene at the time.
Neither complicated nor revolutionary, they were lead heavy and great
fun to listen to.
Originally known as PREVIOUS PAGE, they changed their name to ACID in
1980, releasing their debut 7", "Hell On Wheels", the following year.
They followed this up with a couple of demo recordings before their
self-titled debut album came out in '82. It was a real revelation,
heavy riffs, wild guitar, double bass drums, a thundering sound,
together with the powerful voice of excellent front woman Kate.
"Maniac" was their second album, and was released at the end of '83.
"Lucifera" was taken as the single from it. 1984 saw the release of
the great 4 song 12" EP, "Black Car". Arguably one of the best bands
ever to come out of Belgium, their third and final album "Engine
Beast", was released in 1985, but changing musical tastes and trends
conspired to rob the band of their impetus. After this release the
band gradually disintegrated, although a few reunion gigs over the
years have led to rumours that the band may reconvene at some point
in the future for a new album.
