About The Bomb

The Acid have announce the physical release of the soundtrack for the film the bomb on November 17th via Infectious Records. The vinyl release of the album will be 26th January 2018 Hailed by critics, the bomb is an experimental, music-driven film that looks at the strange and compelling world of nuclear weapons. The film had its UK premiere at the Shangri-La area of this year’s Glastonbury and was shown as an installation on massive 360-degree screens that completely surrounded the audience, while The Acid played the soundtrack live.

The live installation was designed and staged by United Visual Artists.

Over seven decades have passed since a city was destroyed by a nuclear weapon. But the danger never went away. We are now confronted with a world in which nine nations possess almost 15,000 nuclear weapons. Many of the weapons in the American arsenal are roughly 20 times more powerful than the bomb detonated at Hiroshima. the bomb places the viewer in the middle of the story of nuclear weapons — the most dangerous machines ever built — from the Trinity Test in 1945 to the current state of
