Busse Woods (album)
Busse Woods is an album by the stoner metal band Acid King. 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. As a teenager, frontwoman Lori S. often met there with friends to hang out and take drugs. 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
