« stream all of Hell Militia's 'Jacob's Ladder' | WATCH: Artists tell their favorite 2012 albums (Bat for Lashes pick Alt-J who pick Polica, etc) »

Very few records make an immediate impression like Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats's latest offering Blood Lust. The EP, which surfaced in 2011 on the self-released tip, has been given a proper reissue and is out now via Metal Blade. Stream it in full below. Rarely does a band seamlessly meld prog, garage, psychedelia and metal with such an excellent pop sensibility.
The identities of Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats remain mysterious, but what is known is that the band will drop a new LP via Metal Blade in the new year. Until then, enjoy a few videos and a stream of that excellent EP below. So far, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats dates are limited to the EU, including one at Roadburn 2013 as part of the Jus Osborn curated day.

Why do you keep calling it an EP? It was their second LP, if I am not mistaken.

My dog loves this band. But what can you expect? He's a fucking dog. He smells other dogs' assholes and eats his own puke. I think I just saw the connection ....

This came out last year. You cannot put it in your 2012 year end list. #toot
And yes, there are 9 tracks totaling almost 50 minutes. I feel that constitutes an LP.

"Rarely does a band seamlessly meld prog, garage, psychedelia and metal with such an excellent pop sensibility."
Alice Cooper, Deep Purple, Nektar, Black Sabbath
the 70s produced a million bands who did just that.
