The iconic pioneers of Sextreme Disco Lords of Acid, featuring new vocalist Gigi Ricci, are set to embark on a thrilling journey across North America with their ‘Make Acid Great Again’ tour.
Renowned for their boundary-pushing sound and unabashed exploration of taboo themes, Lords of Acid have carved out a unique niche in the electronic music scene since the late 1980s. With hits like I Sit on Acid and Pussy, they have captivated audiences with their provocative lyrics and infectious rhythms.
“The upcoming Lords of Acid ‘Make Acid Great Again’ tour, starting on April 26 in the US and including several dates in Canada, marks our long-awaited return to the stage after the cancellation of our previous tour due to the global pandemic. This tour embodies our resilience and dedication to our fans as we eagerly look forward to reconnecting with our audience and delivering unforgettable performances. It is a testament to the timeless power of music to inspire and unite, and we are greatly anticipating embarking on this journey together, spreading joy, excitement, and an unbridled spirit of creativity wherever our music takes us.” – Lords of Acid
Praga Khan and co-composer Oliver Adams, the team behind the unforgettable ‘Mortal Kombat’ album, which is celebrating its 30th Anniversary, are set to kick off each night of the tour with an electrifying set that will transport audiences back to the golden age of electronic music. With hits like Injected with a Poison and Breakfast in Vegas, they have captivated listeners with their infectious beats and boundary-pushing sound.
“As the opening act of the Lords of Acid tour, I will be performing for the last time in the USA. Two years ago, I bid farewell with a memorable series of sold-out concerts in Belgium. Now, for the final time, I will be performing our songs with my musical partner, Oliver Adams, in the USA and Canada. After 35 years of touring all over the world, I have decided to retire completely from live concerts as Praga Khan. On the MAGA tour, Oliver Adams and I will be performing some of our classics, as well as songs from the legendary Mortal Kombat album, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. This promises to be an unforgettable evening in honor of our legacy and the iconic ‘Mortal Kombat’ soundtrack.” – PRAGA KHAN

From his first single, I Sit On Acid, released in 1988, to the present, Belgium’s Praga Khan remains one of the most innovative acid house musicians in circulation. Thanks to extensive experimentation with drugs, Crowley-ian sex magic, and esoteric paths of self-deprivation and mutilation known only to himself, this orgiastic orchestrator created the Lords of Acid to further encapsulate the seductive messages and raw sex of his ever-evolving musical vision. From the raw carnality of their 1991 release ‘Lust’ to the electro-thrash of 2012’s ‘Deep Chills,’ Lords of Acid has re-defined the pure pleasures of drugs, hedonism, and deviant sex for thirty years. Now, despite numerous lineup changes, world tours, over 2.5 million album sales, and every possible point of crisis and conflict a band can face, Lords of Acid is returning to the unsuspecting again, this time with a new crew of deviants, dilettantes, and sonically transmitted diseases.
