ACID BATH Announces Their First 2026 Show Feat. OBITUARY

Listen up, sludge enthusiasts – ACID BATH just couldn’t resist diving back into the sludge pit. Fresh off their “we’re-not-dead-yet” 2025 reunion tour (their first shows in *30 freakin’ years*, by the way), they’ve now tacked on a 2026 date for good measure. Mark your apocalyptic calendars: March 21, 2026, they’ll be rattling the stalactites at The Caverns in Grundy County, Tennessee. Yes, the actual underground cave venue. Because ACID BATH’s comeback clearly needed more dungeoncore vibes.

Joining them in this spelunking adventure? Tampa death metal legends OBITUARY (Florida’s finest export since alligator wrestling), French crust-punk riff demons HERAKLEION (bonus fact: their vocalist allegedly eats amplifiers for breakfast), and New Orleans’ bluesy doom upstarts SAINT AVANGELINE. Check the full tour rundown below – because they’re touring like they’re making up for three decades of Netflix binges:

7/11 Brooklyn, NY Brooklyn Paramount (w/ EYEHATEGOD & WAILIN STORMS) – because New York needs more misanthropy
7/18–20 Mansfield, OH Inkcarceration Music & Tattoo Festival – get inked while hearing riffs that’ll scar your soul
7/25 Brooklyn, NY Brooklyn Paramount (w/ PENTAGRAM) – Bobby Liebling’s probably already haunting the greenroom
8/9 Minneapolis, MN The Fillmore (w/ WINDHAND & PRIMITIVE MAN) – bring a hazmat suit for this fuzzy apocalypse
8/16 Baltimore, MD Power Plant Live (w/ HIGH ON FIRE, WINDHAND, HEAVY TEMPLE & SONJA) – maximum volume *mandatory*
8/22 Los Angeles, CA Hollywood Palladium (w/ HIGH ON FIRE & WINDHAND) – sunshine? Never heard of her
8/28 Los Angeles, CA Hollywood Palladium (w/ PIG DESTROYER & THE OBSESSED) – for when one LA show isn’t enough
9/9 Austin, TX Levitation – psychedelic sludge, anyone?
9/18–21 Louisville, KY Louder Than Life – where bourbon and breakdowns collide
10/2 Sacramento, CA Discovery Park (Aftershock Festival) – earthquake jokes *strongly* discouraged
10/11 Toronto, ON Rebel (w/ VOIVOD) – Canada’s thrash-prog weirdos? Perfect
12/5–6 Denver, CO Fillmore Auditorium (Decibel Magazine Metal & Beer Fest: Denver) – drink local IPAs, crush eardrums
12/12 Chicago, IL Salt Shed (w/ HIGH ON FIRE & WEEDEATER) – winter sludge: now with 200% more flannel
3/21 Grundy County, TN The Caverns (w/ OBITUARY, HERAKLEION & SAINT AVANGELINE) – literally underground, metaphorically unhinged.
