Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
A friend sent me this link saying he stumbled on it and thought of me!
Crap name but pretty sweet sounds (and cool video). Anybody know more about this band?

Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
Got the LP through the other day. I really like - sometimes wish the guitars were a bit more psych but nice and heavy and some very catchy grooves. Love the name!! There is also a Volume 1 out there - worth seeking out (er as a download since only 20cdrs were done...) Interviewed for next issue of course!!
Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
Right on sonic! Is it a serious album or is it more of a psych-exploitation record? Are they American?
Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats

Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
About the name - "The name Uncle Acid was taken from Rusty Day of the great band CACTUS. Before he was killed he had a band called UNCLE ACID AND THE PERMANENT DAMAGE BAND. So, It’s a tribute to him"

Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
How about this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Uncle-Acid-De ... 5890217786
Sorta think do I let my principles get in the way? Could have bought this for £35 on the morning (thinking you would at least double your money on it) but something feels bad if you buy a record to deny someone else that chance... I want for the regular at £18. BUT when you could make £450 profit (taking off fees etc) hard not to think that would have been Christmas sorted for the kids/family... Does not seem fair on the band that someone makes that amount of money out of there work when they are struggling to press up cdrs to sell themselves?

Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
I love this band. Good old 70s bass driven rock
Re: Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats
You are a better man than I. I would have snapped it up. But then I make a living buying things and re-selling them.sonic124 wrote:How about this

They are certainly not happy about the flippers making more money on one blood splattered album than they did on selling the lot
