Lords of Acid: Belgium`s Masters of Provocative Electronic Music

Dive into the dark, hedonistic world of Lords of Acid, the iconic Belgian electronic music group formed in 1988 by Praga Khan, Olivier Adams, and Jade 4U. Known for their provocative lyrics and groundbreaking fusion of techno, acid house, and industrial music, Lords of Acid explores themes of sexuality, drug use, and unbridled hedonism.
