Twisted prog/psych crew Acid Hags to release their new album "Tempora Matantur" November 15th


Acid Hags is an instrumental trio from Croatia who, through vibrant, loud and dynamic exchange, take you on an unexpected psychedelic journey… while additional hints of experimental jazz and the strength of metal create a unique blend of progressive and ambient rock. 

The band started in 2016, and so far, they’ve released the album Wild in 2018 and Acid Hags in January 2020. The band has already made several notable performances in Croatia and Slovenia and supported the sold-out Močvara show of American stoner rock legends ALL THEM WITCHES. Listeners may also recognize Aleksandar Vrhovec (Guitars, Synth) from bands Mycena and Grinded Grin.


IN THE BAND'S OWN WORDS:

“Acid Hags constantly flirt with unconventionality, making a twisted and non-standard intertwining of styles their signature. No genre is off-limits and no zone must be respected, and the listener’s perspective is relativized through incessant flashes of unexpected twists in rhythm.”


“Polyrhythms in polytope with spices of polytonality at one moment and unison breathing seamlessly balanced and blended at another. Constant and ostentatious pulsations breathe as a distinct living creature through the intense and theatrical turns of an exotic musical ambiance.”
