Rabbit Fur Coat, Lewis’ soulful love letter to the records of her childhood, was released in 2006 to universal acclaim. Similarly, for Acid Tongue, she was drawn by nostalgia, this time returning to the area where she grew up: Van Nuys, California. Lewis set up shop in Sound City Studios, which boasts a world famous live-tracking room that has produced seminal records over generations; from Tom Petty's Damn the Torpedoes and Neil Young's After the Goldrush to Nirvana's Nevermind. Says Lewis, "The idea was to go one hundred percent live, including the vocals, and doing as few overdubs as possible. I wanted to use that big beautiful room and get fully realized takes. If the drums bled into the vocal mic and it made for a technically imperfect sound it didn't matter to me. If it felt right, if the emotion was there, we kept it."
