5.0 out of 5 stars
This band is amazing, December 22, 2005
and it's kind of sad that they don't get as much recognition as they should for being as good as they were. Being an owner of the original CDs it honestly doesn't bother me that, no, there's nothing really "new" on this record. It's worth getting for the little differences. The timing is usually faster and some of the lyrics are changed... for the better, in my opinion. I mean "Jesus holds a blade to your throat and begs you to conform" on the song Jezebel is just such a flat out cool lyric. And the crappier recording quality actually helps to make the songs sound a little heavier than their more well produced counterparts. I wish they could have put a few more demos on the CD, but what they did include is still very good. It's definetly worth your money.

FIVE STARS, BUT....WITH MIXED EMOTIONS., December 8, 2005
When it comes to this band, I've been blessed. I got to see Acid Bath twice during the Kite String era, and I've seen Agents of Oblivion twice.
I've gotten to meet Dax and both bands. I shook Audie's hand. Had a brew with Sammy. I own both Radio Edit CD's, Kite String and Paegan on CD, Cassette, and Vinyl. I have hoodies, t-shirts, long sleeved t-shirts....you name it. I also have the Double Bootleg DVD.
I was in shock when this CD hit the shelves and I had not heard that it was coming out.
I'm a fan, I bought it, I love it, I'll listen to it over and over again. It's fantastic.
But my mind keeps going back to Acid Bath and Agents of Oblivion, strung up by Rotten Records, limping from town to town in the crappiest of transportation, struggling to set up, to play, looking for a decent bite to eat......
I'm proud to say that I shared pizzas and beer with this band. You don't buy this CD to whine and gripe because a song isn't on it. You buy it to crank it up and remember the good times.
But part of me hopes silently that the boys are getting some royalties off of it.

As amazing as I had hoped, February 16, 2006
A Kid's Review
First off let me say I'm 19 but I'm too lazy to get a profile. On to the cd. This cd is everything I had hoped. I am a huge fan of acid bath. I have all cds, the sole dvd, and "aftermath" bands(agents, goatwhore, deadboy). I can't get enough of Dax and co. This cd is no exception. The production on something of this nature. Its almost blackmetal quality but alittle more well done. The songs have subtle differences mainly lyrics and tempo. The only exception is Bones of Baby dolls which was recoreded on a 4track. The song it self sounds more distant and depressing than any horribly produced black metal song I've ever heard which only makes the song better. I was surprised they didn't use a killers artwork on this cd but none the less still highly evil. All and all the cd is just as it states, the demos of perhaps the most artistic and creative band to ever come out of the south, perhaps anywhere in the world. The only thing that I regret is that I was too young to see them live. They are my biggest influence and will continue to influence countless other artists for decades to come. RIP Acid Bath
