Acid Muffin is a power trio from Rome, Italy, that plays an experimental and melodic Rock, initially inspired by the Alternative/Grunge sound of the 90s.
After a first demo recorded in 2012, the following year the band entered the studio to give birth to his first official project titled “Nameless”, a five tracks EP made of hybrid features: while on one hand it refers to the pure Grunge tradition (e.i. Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and Nirvana), and on the other one it goes more toward the Post Rock atmosphere.
After a strong live activity throughout Italy, including shows with Arcane Roots, Il Teatro Degli Orrori, L7, The Quireboys and Sham 69, the band has just finished working on first full-length album “Bloop” which will be published on November 7th 2016 in collaboration with K2 Music.
The sound that you’ll find in their new album is the exactly one that actually identifies the Acid Muffin: majestic and theatrical, a middle path between the surreal sound of Post Rock and the brainy music of Alternative Rock, absolutely modern and innovative.
The promotional tour of “Bloop” brings the Acid Muffin in Europe as official support for Black Stone Cherry in 2017. This is followed by another 2 European tours in 2018 as opening for Warrior Soul and The Skull.
The band enriches its sound with Hard Rock/Stoner influences and returns to the studio to begin recording the second album that will be released in the spring of 2019.
