http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=4682ACID DRINKERS traces its origins back to September 1986. The very act of setting up the band took place an hour before IRON MAIDEN concert in Poznan, when Tomasz "Titus" Pukacki (vocal, bass guitar) met Robert "Litza" Friedrich (backing vocal, guitar) and they decided to sell the entrance tickets. The money they got was in no time spent on cheap Polish wine known locally as "kwas" (English "acid") The line up was then enlarged by Dariusz "Popcorn" Popowicz (guitar) and Maciej "Slimak" Starosta (drums.) Soon they created a few song such as Barmy Army or Del Rocca which are performed live even these days. Unfortunately, after two months of blissful existence, the band suffered the loss of Titus - the leader, who had been called up to the army. Titus stayed there two years while the rest of the band performed with other bands. Popcorn joined WILCZY PAJAK and Litza became a member of legendary TURBO and later CREATION OF DEATH. When Titus was finally released from the army, ACID DRINKERS was reactivated.
They first appeared on stage on 26th August 1989 in Wroclaw at a fairly big metal festival called "Metal Madness". They played three songs during which they remained completely still on stage, which was a pretty shocking idea as for a metal band at that time. The audience was absolutely taken aback. The same year they played only one more gig together with TURBO, WILCZY PAJAK and GOMOR.
While doing a lot of covers, many making fun of the songs such as their covers of Metallica's Seek and Destroy, and Black Sabbath's N.I.B., they have also pumped out plenty of original material that is mind blowingly awesome!!
