Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats: North America '26

Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats bring their signature blend of psychedelic rock and doom metal to Minneapolis this fall. Known for their vintage sound—courtesy of classic instruments and recording gear—the English band channels the heavy, occult-laced spirit of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Fans can expect a setlist drawn from six studio albums, including their 2024 release *Nell' Ora Blu*, alongside the dark, groove-laden riffs that have earned them a cult following among doom enthusiasts.

Support comes from Messa, an Italian doom metal band whose own atmospheric, jazz-tinged sound creates a fittingly heavy yet nuanced opening act. This headlining tour marks one of their largest North American runs, following festival appearances across Europe and a history of sharing stages with the likes of Black Sabbath. For those seeking a night of fuzzed-out, hypnotic metal, this show promises an immersive trip through the darker side of psychedelia.
