THE THING

Heavy crazy acid rock combined with progressive rock. Formed in the late 80s, one of the founders of the Stoner Rock scene, along with Monster Magnet. Wild live shows in NYC with strobe lights, smoke, vampire go-go girls, split-screen films, fireworks, buckets of pigs blood, live worms, horror film sound samples, and more! The band grew hugely popular in NYC and Europe and toured the UK, where they recorded a John Peel Session for the BBC. The Thing is mentioned in the book 'Space Daze' (about Hawkwind) and also in the book about the John Peel Sessions.  The Acid-Core!
