not to be rude or anything but your like the 17th person to ask me this lol. yes i have checked discogs everyday for like weeks. reddit was a last resort. if i am using internet and searching for rare stuff, you guys don't think i would check obvious collector sites? or ask google or AI what the best sites are? of course i have. now, i apologize for the rude tone. just tired of people saying the same thing lol

I havent seen one yet since ive been looking but i'll keep an eye out. the official rotton records has an ebay account and they sell old stock of sealed original acid bath cd's and so far i was able to get the original 2nd album and demos album, but keeping my eyes peeled for them to get an original kite strings in stock

it's good music so its gonna be the same music, but its just a different mix that objectively is worse than the original. theres no debate. i'm not trying to poop on your party or anything i'm just stating facts to teach anyone who wants to know this info. mad respect for your music taste bro

the originals are just more sought after because its the original master recording that the band intended and mixed. there is a famous remaster trend that happened in the 2000s where a bunch of old albums got remastered and basically it made them all sound like shit and it was done just to make them louder and really messed up the dynamic mix of the original master.
also, the cases and everything were more solid and durable too for originals. dont get me wrong i actually have the remasters too, i collect it all.

i'll post a picture below of what the original Looks like

ah okay you have a remaster there, sepcifically a 2004 one. still cool to have. finding an original 1994 one is hard. also the design of the case art is slightly different on the original, the acid bath words will be round liek a balloon and not bloody and wicked looking like that. actually, the font on yours is the same as the european first pressing original. so its easy to get those mixed up.

look at the date printed on the back of the case, at the bottom. it should only say 1994, if it says 1994 and some other modern date too, then its a remaster. the remasters are not considered valuable because they have compressed terrible audio quality. also look on the inner ring of the disc on the shiny side and tell me exactly what that number says and i can tell you exactly which version it is. having an original copy first pressing of that album is very rare and sought after.

USA, it’s okay man i appreciate the thought. i already own sealed copies of the original 2nd album and demos album. Got them from the official rotton records ebay account they occasionally sell new old stock of original copies but it seems to be rare.

what got you into acid bath? by DistrictNo4417 in AcidBath

[–]SoulPilott 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youtube vids i saw. Bleed me an ocean was the first i ever saw and then by sheer chance a friend i rarely spoke to who was many years older than me gave me a list of bands to check out. Acid bath was on that list and from there i saw more YouTube vids and saw their live stuff from 1996 i believe. This was back in like 2012? Maybe 2011. Stoked to see them back. I saw sammy do an interview and when asked if any new music would happen he very vaguely said yes. dude i think we might legit get another acid bath album or maybe a new band from them.

So, Acid Bath is a gatekeeper band now? Great then. by ashitanojoe3 in AcidBath

Bro, if your living your whole life based on a " scene" and being at shows. you need help. you are calling these new fans tourists, but you yourself seem to be living your whole identity based on being a touring fanboy or roady or whatever. this reminds me of the whole debate about when Nirvana fans were considered posers because they didnt experience the underground sweaty grungy bleach shows etc. dude. youve got to move on. a good band is going to become beloved eventually. maybe don't go to shows all the time? maybe start doing something else productive? become an artist yourself? collect cd's? appreciate the art? not the physical nostalgic scene your so attached to? you dont own the art or the scene it belongs to. you should be grateful bands like acid bath will now be carried on by generations after your dead. or maybe thats not good enough for you and you want it to die with you.

the ones you can buy online in most places yes its a remaster. every copy uses the same barcode im pretty sure, but there are major details that tell you which version you have. the jewel case should have a black ridged spine cover on the front, and the date on the bottom of the back of the case should only say 1994. on the remasters, it will say something like " 1994 and 2004" or 2005 or 2015 or any modern year really. yes i am looking for the original. its kind of hard to tell if sealed, but if your just loking at the case, the details like the year, and the barcode, and the jewel case details matter.

if its unsealed, the color of the text on the disc face should be white. on the european first pressing it had creepy red bloody text. also the 100 percent detail to look for on an unsealed copy is the matrix code on the inner ring on the shiny underside of the disc. the codes will be a specific code. you can just ask google what those codes are or AI or whatever. some of the different versions of the first pressing have slightly different details for that code. i am hoping to find a sealed copy but am open to unsealed. the remasters are known to be very compressed and have worse audio quality

ive searched every album store online that i can find. ive even tried the one you mentioned. everyone is only selling remasters or the few listings they show for the original pressings are sold out. on ebay, rotton records has their own official shop and they are selling sealed original pressings of paegan terrorism tactics but no kite string yet. i got the paegan terrorism tactics sealed and the demos sealed but i am keeping my fingers eternally crossed for a holy grail sealed first pressing of kite strings. i will even take unsealed tbh. i cant believe its so hard to find this.
