Discog Club Discography Club: Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats
28
Upvotes
I don't know what I hold in my hand, could it be that I'm evil?
Plunder on there's no law in this land, the horror guides me through
Masterer and subjector of pain, I'm the Godder of worms
Devil's Lieger controls the insane, you'l see it when I'm through
I'll hang you higher than before
I'll leave you dying at death's door
To wrap up our spooky season special, there's few bands more season appropriate than Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats!
Originally started as a solo project by Kevin Starrs (I am absolutely convinced this is the case and he just pretended to have a band) but in 2013 he got a real band together and became a quartet, playing live shows (including opening for Black Sabbath), and more recently became a quintet with a dedicated backing vocalist/synth player.
Uncle Acid are what you'd get it if you combined early Sabbath, 60s/70s occult rock, the entire Palm Desert scene, and every single obscure giallo and German horror movie from the 70s you can think of. Lots of fuzzy guitars, high pitched falsetto vocals, spooky synths, and songs about Satan, evil cults, psychedelics, serial killers, and all that kind of good horror movie goodness. If you like stuff like early Witchcraft, Jex Thoth, Blood Ceremony, and Buffalo you're gonna love Uncle Acid.
Schedule is:
- Volume 1
- Blood Lust
- Mind Control
- Night Creeper
- Wasteland
- Shapes of Midnight (optional)

Accept - 1983 - Balls To The Wall - Head Over Heels
Late at night in the park
I saw them slipping in the dark
For heaven's sake what's going on
It's like someone is here
Gotta follow now
Like being in a trance for me
There's silence here
More than all the noise
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels
Overheated heart Head Over Heels
Treating it so hard the spurting feels
Everyday, everynight
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels
Overheated heart Head Over Heels
Treating it so hard the spurting feels
Oh yeah
Down on my knees, God help me please
Gotta know who's out in the dark
I've stopped my breath, can feel the hands
Could hear the sound of people making love
I surrender right now
I've to be touched, I feel so much
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels
Overheated heart Head Over Heels
Treating it so hard the spurting feels
Everyday, everynight
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels
Overheated heart Head Over Heels
Treating it so hard the spurting feels
Everyday, everynight
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels
Overheated heart Head Over Heels
Treating it so hard the spurting feels
Everyday, everynight
Spurting in the dark Head Over Heels

Mortillery - 2011 - Murder Death Kill - Outbreak
The fear of death
Keeps you awake
You hear the screams
Your body bleeds
The time has come
To give up faith
One million dead
They rot in hell
Outbreak of death!
Fight till the end if you wanna save your soul
Outbreak of death!
Death and destruction slaughtering the world
Outbreak of death!
Yaaaaaaa
Outbreak of death!
Frail mortals
Fight with rage
To save their souls
But hell awaits
No one's safe
No remorse
An endless struggle
A total war
Chorus
A killer instinct
A thirst for blood
A haunting feeling
A deadly force
A living nightmare
A darkened world
A holy spirit
A total war

FireWind - 2006 - Allegiance - Falling To Pieces
Be yourself tonight don't stress yourself to death
Don't try to fight the time
Synchronize your health
Don't think you'll lose it all
It all comes back to you
So get your soul alive
Things will go on through
Don't hide behind a dark and empty soul
Don't lie to yourself no more
Everything is you
But you're falling to pieces
Let me get you through
I'm falling down with you
Everything is lost
I help you through the darkness
Let me lead you to a place that's calm for you
Like stormy weather
You're moving with no goal
Feeling kind of strange
Feel you want to growl
Don't hide behind a dark and empty soul
Don't lie to yourself no more
Everything is you
But you're falling to pieces
Let me get you through
I'm falling down with you
Everything is lost
I help you through the darkness
Let me lead you to a place that's calm for you
