  • Scratch Acid was an Austin, Texas noise rock group formed in 1982. When they first began, their lineup was Steve Anderson (vocals), David Wm. Sims (bass), Brett Bradford (guitar), David Yow (vocals), and Rey Washam (drums). Anderson was kicked out of the band before the band ever recorded an album, prompting Yow to move to vocals and Sims to move to bass. Scratch Acid's first two albums were released by Texas indie record label Rabid Cat, the third and final release, Berserker EP by Touch and Go Records. A posthumous compilation CD entitled The Greatest Gift, was released by Touch and Go Records in 1991. After developing a reputation as a crazy, noisy punk band, Scratch Acid disbanded in 1987. According to the liner notes of The Greatest Gift, the band members never received compensation from either Rabid Cat or Fundamental Records (who distributed their releases in Europe). Brett Bradford went on to form Colorado punk band Great Caesar's Ghost. They disbanded in 1993. He also formed Sangre De Toro and played with Areola 51. Washam went on to perform with many other bands, including the Big Boys, Ministry, Helios Creed, the Didjits, Lard, and Tad. In 1987, Sims and Washam joined Steve Albini in the band Rapeman, which disbanded just before Sims reunited with Yow in 1989 to form the Jesus Lizard. All of the original members of the band appeared at Emo's nightclub in Austin on Sept. 2, 2006, and at the Touch and Go 25th anniversary celebration in Chicago, Illinois on September 9, 2006. They played their third and final show of the brief reunion at Seattle's Showbox Theater on Saturday, September 16, playing twenty songs from their twenty-eight song (recorded) oeuvre before leaving the stage. Kurt Cobain of the popular grunge band Nirvana was a Scratch Acid fan, as seen in a photograph where Cobain wears a Scratch Acid t-shirt. In the movie About A Son Kurt explained his liking for Scratch Acid in depth.

  • Scratch Acid est un groupe de rock fondé à Austin, Texas, en 1982. Il est formé de Brett Bradford à la guitare et au chant, David Wm. Sims à la basse, Rey Washam à la batterie et David Yow au chant et à la basse. Il se désagrège en 1987, pour donner Rapeman puis The Jesus Lizard. La musique de ce groupe se place parmi les plus dures de la scène alternative américaine des années 1980 et eut une influence notable sur certains groupes phares, notamment Nirvana à ses débuts. Situé dans la mouvance noise rock, ce « groupe bruyant, douloureux et désaxé » adopte des sonorités très terre-à-terre : un son brut, pourvu d'une certaine chaleur humaine (du moins bestiale) grâce à une basse et une batterie lourdes, un chant sans retenue, et une guitare stridente. La construction des morceaux est souvent complexe, alternant tensions, passages violents et changements de rythmes. Il développe une rage peu fréquente dans la mouvance noisy, notamment par les prestations scéniques du chanteur David Yow. Le groupe s'est reformé de à l'occasion du 25 anniversaire du label Touch and Go Records et a depuis joué quelques concerts.
