The Austin, TX, post-hardcore noise group Scratch Acid laid the groundwork for much of the distorted, grinding alternative punk rockers of the '90s. Formed in 1982, the band originally featured Steve Anderson (vocals), David Wm. Sims (guitar), Brett Bradford (guitar), David Yow (bass), and Rey Washam (drums). Anderson was soon kicked out of the group and the band performed as an instrumental outfit for a short while. Yow moved to vocals, Sims switched to bass, and the band released a self-titled EP in 1984. Two years later, they released the full-length Just Keep Eating and the scathing Berserker EP. Following a long tour that took them through America and Europe, Scratch Acid split in May of 1987. Sims and Washam joined with Steve Albini to form the consciously caustic Rapeman. After Rapeman split, Sims reunited with David Yow to form the Jesus Lizard in 1989, which picked up where Scratch Acid left off

Texas noise mongers Scratch Acid's first full-length album, Just Keep Eating, oozed out of the Austin, TX, music scene as part Birthday Party, part Butthole Surfers, and part swampy blues psychosis. Singer David Yow's guttural expulsions aren't quite up to the lung-scorching roars he would proudly claim as main man of the Jesus Lizard, but they reached their first mature voicings here. Backwoods derangement is the rule of the day: The arson tale of "Crazy Dan," the punk swing of "Unlike a Baptist," the howling "Damned for All Time," and the Big Boys-like (Scratch Acid drummer Rey Washam banged skins for those seminal Austin punkers) fake funk of "Amicus" all show the Acid boys to be well on their way to placing themselves among the Texas noise elite. Though this album doesn't hit the screaming intensity of the band's follow-up (and swan song) Berserker, it may well be their most representative effort, thanks in no small part to the stabbing twisted blooze guitar patterns fashioned by Brett Bradford, whose six-string work (itself heavily influenced by the Birthday Party's Roland S. Howard) influenced quite a number of guitar stars in the indie rock explosion of the early '90s...(AllMusic)
