Lords of Acid

Belgian techno outfit Lords of Acid first gained notoriety in the '90s with the risqué acid house dance music of Lust, which established a dedicated cult following. Lust spawned a pair of club hits, "Rough Sex" and "I Must Increase My Bust" and featured LoA's trademark male-female vocal interplay between Praga Khan and Jade 4U. 1994's Voodoo-U added industrial elements to their sound and became a band-oriented group. Their third effort, 1997's Our Little Secret, spawned the singles "Rubber Doll" and "Pussy" and became the band's first entry on the Billboard 200. The B-side compilation Heaven Is an Orgasm followed in 1998. The next year, they issued a remix compilation; Expand Your Head featuring "Am I Sexy?" from Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. Farstucker followed in early 2001. The group went on hiatus until 2011's Little Mighty Rabbit EP, their first set of new material in a decade. Their fifth album, Deep Chills featuring an entirely revamped lineup and guest vocalists like adult actress Alana Evans and television personality Zak Bagans of Ghost Adventures. Following the 2016's greatest hits compilation, Smoking Hot, Khan and the group began a crowdfunding campaign for their sixth full-length album, 2018's Pretty in Kink. It was announced in 2025 that ex-Butcher Babies vocalist Carla Harvey is the new Acid Queen and will be recording and touring with the band in 2025.
