After two studio albums, Acid Bath’s career abruptly ended on January 23, 1997, when bass guitarist Audie Pitre and his parents were killed by a drunk driver who had run a stop sign. Kelly Pitre, Audie’s brother, was the only one of four family members to survive the incident, escaping with only a broken rib and a mild neck fracture.
