LORDS OF ACID KICKS OFF THEIR TOUR WITH NEW VOCALIST CARLA HARVEY, LITTLE MISS NASTY, LUCIA CIFARELLI from KMFDM, AND MORE!
The Praise the Lords 2025 Tour is almost upon us-and it’s shaping up to be one of the wildest, naughtiest, and most unforgettable nights in underground music this year. Belgian electro-industrial legends Lords of Acid return to the U.S. this summer, launching May 27 in San Francisco and running through June 29 in Las Vegas.This run marks the debut of new front woman Carla Harvey (ex-Butcher Babies), stepping into the role of the new Acid Queen.
Known for their iconic mix of industrial, electro, and dance music, Lords of Acid has been shaking the foundations of the music world since the early ’90s with hits like “Pussy” and “I Sit on Acid.” Their live shows are notorious for their energy, boundary-pushing visuals, and relentless dance grooves. This tour marks a monumental chapter in the band’s long-standing legacy and a new chapter as former Butcher Babies singer CARLA HARVEY joins the band.
“I had three favorite bands in high school: Guns N’ Roses, Pantera and LORDS OF ACID. Each one shaped me and uniquely influenced me as an artist. LOA had me hooked from the moment I heard “I Sit On Acid” as a teenager dancing the night away at Detroit’s goth Industrial Haven City Club. My obsession with LOA only grew after I saw Coop’s artwork on the cover of “Voodoo U”. Now I get to record an album and go on tour with my industrial heroes! Pinch 16 year old me! She’ll be the one in the vocal booth. I’m adding a bucket list item to my resume: Reigning “Acid Queen”. Praise the Lords!” – CARLA HARVEY
