Notes: 

Scratch Acid was an Austin, Texas noise rock group formed in 1982. When they first began, their lineup wasSteve Anderson (vocals), David Wm. Sims (guitar), Brett Bradford (guitar), David Yow (bass), and Rey Washam(drums). Anderson was kicked out of the band before they ever recorded an album, prompting Yow to move to vocals and Sims to move to bass.

Scratch Acid's first two albums were released by Texas indie record label Rabid Cat, the third and final release, Berserker EP by Touch and Go Records. A posthumous compilation CD entitled The Greatest Gift was released by Touch and Go Records in 1991.

The band was named by music journalist Will Lerner as "the American equivalent of the Birthday Party."[1] After developing a reputation as a crazy, noisy punk band, Scratch Acid disbanded in 1987. According to the liner notes of The Greatest Gift, the band members never received compensation from either Rabid Cat or Fundamental Records (who distributed their releases in Europe).

Brett Bradford went on to form Colorado punk band Great Caesar's Ghost. They disbanded in 1993. He also formed Sangre De Toro and played with Areola 51. Washam went on to perform with many other bands, including the Big Boys, Ministry, Helios Creed, the Didjits, Lard, and Tad. In 1987, Sims and Washam joined Steve Albini in the band Rapeman, which disbanded just before Sims reunited with Yow in 1989 to form the Jesus Lizard.

All of the original members of the band appeared at Emo's nightclub in Austin on September 2, 2006,[2] and at the Touch and Go 25th anniversary celebration in Chicago, Illinois on September 9, 2006.[3] They played their third and final show of the brief reunion at Seattle's Showbox Theater on Saturday, September 16, playing 20 songs from their 28-song (recorded) oeuvre before leaving the stage.

The band will reunite for their first UK show since 1987 for the second British All Tomorrow's Parties music festival in December 2011, curated by Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum.[4] David Wm. Sims also announced in his blog that the band will play some dates in November and December in the US "and possibly in Europe".[5] On August 31st, David Yow released the complete list of tour dates on his Facebook page. [6]
