Scratch Acid
Scratch Acid Box Set
Born out of the early 1980's Austin noise punk scene, Scratch Acid deliberately eschewed the loud, fast rules of
hardcore as everything they didn't want to be and embraced a weirder, artier sound. The band's eventual permanent
line-up consisted of David Yow on vocals, Brett Bradford on guitar, David Wm. Sims on bass, and Rey Washam (Big Boys) on
drums. During their brief existence from 1982 to 1987, the band released 3 records, including a full-length album (Just
Keep Eating) and two EPs (S/T EP, Berserker).
On March 14, 2025, Touch and Go Records will release the Scratch Acid Box Set - limited to 2000 sets worldwide.
Remastered by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service, the box set includes 180-gram clear LP pressings of all three
releases as well as a 24-page booklet featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes photos, liner notes by David Yow, Brett
Bradford, and photographer/journalist Pat Blashill, as well as full-color paintings by contemporary artist Mark Todd
from the same era as the cover art for the S/T EP and Berserker releases. In addition, this limited Scratch Acid box set
includes an exclusive clear vinyl 7" with both tracks the band contributed to the 1986 Touch and Go Records compilation,
God's Favorite Dog. The 7-inch includes cover art by Mark Todd as well.
