LORDS OF ACID Announce 2025 "Praise The Lords" Tour Featuring New Lead Singer Carla Harvey (ex-Butcher Babies) With Support From Little Miss Nasty.

Prepare for night after night of electrifying performances, stimulating beats, and raw, unbridled sensory fuel as two of the most provocative and bold acts in the music industry unite for the must-see "PRAISE THE LORDS" Tour 2025!

LORDS OF ACID

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 

"We are delighted to have such a fearlessly, powerful and strong women as Carla Harvey is as the new "Acid Queen"! Carla has a history as a successful heavy metal singer but her ability, range and styles are broad and impressive! She is more than cut out for the job as the new singer for

LORDS OF ACID. Plus she is drop dead gorgeous and a total professional. And Little Miss Nasty are perfect to have on tour with us. They too are fearless and unapologetically bad ass women. I have admired watching them create a huge name for themselves since they first toured with LOA in 2019." - MAURICE ENGELEN

LORDS OF ACID manager Marc Jordan says -

"We have engineered and envisioned this tour to be like no other tour LOA has ever done. When you walk into the venue, you will know exactly where you are - at a Lords Of Acid show. The pre show ambience, the lighting, the visuals and the atmosphere need to transport, elevate and stimulate the audience physically, mentally and spiritually. With LITTLE MISS NASTY and LORDS OF ACID, this whole night breathes debauchery, darkness, fun and pure sensory overload from beginning to end."

LITTLE MISS NASTY

Little Miss Nasty is widely recognized as the global icons of dark performance art and burlesque inspired dance. They blend elements of metal, goth, EDM, industrial and hip-hop with provocative choreography, big theatrical production, bold and sensual visuals, and a fierce, empowered attitude. Little Miss Nasty also released their debut album Weapon Of Choice last year and continues to release critically acclaimed original songs.
