AllMusic[3]

Busse Woods is an album by the stoner metal band Acid King.[4][5] The album was released in 1999 by Man's Ruin Records; it was reissued in 2004, with bonus tracks, by Small Stone Records, and on vinyl in 2007 by Kreation Records.

The album's title (pronounced buss-ee) is the local name for the Ned Brown Forest Preserve, which is located near Chicago.[6] As a teenager, frontwoman Lori S. often met there with friends to hang out and take drugs.[7]

The reissue of Busse Woods has slightly different artwork and two extra songs, cover versions of "Motorhead", by Hawkwind, and "Not Fragile", by Bachman-Turner Overdrive. The cover versions were released on the compilation albums Daze of the Underground and In the Groove, respectively. "39 Lashes" is also a cover song, originally appearing in Jesus Christ Superstar.

Busse Woods is the only Acid King album with bass guitarist Brian Hill.

Critical reception[edit]

The Austin Chronicle wrote that the album "may not be very inventive, but it sure is dark and heavy".[8]
