The group dates 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 "Ślimak" 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 Wolf Spider 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, Wolf Spider and Gomor.
In the meantime ACID DRINKERS recorded their first demo including Nagasaki Baby, Del Rocca and I Mean Acid. The demo noticed by Tomasz Dziubinski (Metal Mind Productions) was presented at Midem Fair in Cannes. A month later ACID DRINKERS signed a deal with Music for Nations. In 1990 ACID DRINKERS performed at Metalmania Festival in Katowice, which has been the largest metal festival in Eastern Europe for many years. The show was so excellent that not only fans but also critics and journalists regarded it as a triumph. In a blink of an eye the band gained popularity across the whole country. It was even called "Guns'n'Roses at Metallica's speed".
In October 1998 Litza left ACID DRINKERS, soon replaced by Przemyslaw "Perla" Wejmann. The same year the band was awarded "the Best Rock Band of the Year" by Polish Public Television. ACID DRINKERS also received "Fryderyk", the Polish equivalent of Grammy Award in category of "hard’n’heavy" in 1998, 2000, 2004. In 2003 Perla left the band. The place emptied by him was soon taken over by Tomasz ‘Lipa’ Lipnicki, the leader of another famous Polish band – Illusion. When Lipa left the band in march 2004, next guy joined the band. His name is Aleksander “Olass” Mendyk, guitar player from great hardcore band called None.
Acid Drinkers has always been one of the best and the most live-impressive Polish heavy metal bands. It has been estimated that so far they have played over 700 concerts in Poland and abroad. From 1996 to 2003 Acids headlined 7 tours and their audience reached a million of people. They headlined all the important Polish rock and metal festivals. The band supported many international stars, such as Deep Purple (in Katowice 03.06.1996 and 24.06.1998 and 27.06.2004 Legia Stadium-Warsaw), Ian Gillan ("Toolbox In" tour in Poland and Czech Republic December 1991), Megadeth, Bruce Dickinson, Sepultura, Paradise Lost and Slayer. The band has been recognized as the best Polish band of the 90s’ by Polish journalists, readers of Polish rock and metal magazines and, of course, BY FANS.

Acid Drinkers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spasmodically breathing
You wisper to my tired ear unintelligible message
Sloooooow!!!
Stone it, fuck it!
Don't creep like a pig
You read me your last will while you're sleeping
Your gabble maybe is charming me
I tell you, you must go to bed
I don't know, what I know
And I don't call a medicine man
I should know that you drown
The lyrics of Acid Drinkers' song Slow and Stoned convey a unique and slightly disturbing perspective of a friend or acquaintance who calls late at night in a state of delirium or inebriation. The singer, who is being called upon, hears the other person's sporadic and laborious breathing, as if they are struggling to stay coherent. The caller's message is unintelligible, and they urge the singer to "Stone it, fuck it!" as they are obviously under the influence of a drug, most likely marijuana.
The call continues with the caller reading their "last will" to the singer, who listens with a mix of fascination and discomfort. The singer calls out the caller for their delirium, pleading with them to go to bed and get some rest. The caller's speech, though incoherent, seemingly holds some charm for the singer, but they can see that the caller is drowning.
Overall, the song offers a glimpse into the reckless and potentially dangerous behavior that can happen when under the influence of drugs. The song's lyrics warn about the dangerous role that drugs can play in our lives, as well as acknowledging the danger of its existence.
Line by Line Meaning
You're calling me late at night
You are phoning me during the late hours of the night
Spasmodically breathing
You are breathing erratically and irrationally
You whisper to my tired ear unintelligible message
You are whispering incomprehensible messages to my exhausted eardrums
Sloooooow!!!
Slow down and calm yourself
Stone it, fuck it!
Engage in relaxed and careless behavior
Don't creep like a pig
Don't act like an unwarranted nuisance
You read me your last will while you're sleeping
You are narrating your final wishes to me while in a state of slumber
Your gabble maybe is charming me
Your chatter may appear endearing to me
But can't you see - you're drowning
However, you are unaware of how deep in trouble you truly are
I tell you, you must go to bed
I advise that you retire to your bed
I don't know, what I know
I am uncertain of my own knowledge
And I don't call a medicine man
I do not seek the assistance of a medical practitioner
I should know that you drown
However, I am aware that you are drowning in your own problems
