The highly anticipated reunion of sludge metal legends Acid Bath continues to take shape with the announcement of another special, one-off headlining show, this time in Cleveland, Ohio. The “drip-feed” of concert announcements reveals a carefully curated comeback strategy, with each headlining date featuring a unique and powerful support package rather than a traditional touring lineup.
The latest event to be announced will take place on March 13, 2026, at the historic Agora Theatre in Cleveland. The show will feature a diverse and powerful undercard, including Cleveland’s own black metal punks Midnight, the dark folk of Amigo The Devil, veteran death metallers Nunslaughter, and instrumental post-rockers Radian. A pre-sale for the show is underway, with the general public on-sale beginning this Friday, September 26.
This show is the latest piece of a larger, unconventional touring puzzle that the influential band is assembling for their comeback. Rather than a standard tour, the band is presenting a series of special, high-profile “events.” These include other curated headlining shows with unique support acts like Voivod in Toronto and Baroness in New Jersey, festival appearances at Aftershock and Decibel Magazine‘sMetal & Beer Fest, and, most notably, a massive stadium run across Europe in the summer of 2026 as direct support for System Of A Down and Queens Of The Stone Age.
Acid Bath‘s unconventional approach to their reunion is only building the anticipation for each performance. For fans of the legendary and long-dormant band, each new announcement is another chance to witness a special, one-of-a-kind event.
