Acid Mothers Temple
(Japan)
Genre: Experimental, Psych
Formed in 1995 by Makoto Kawabata at the same time as the Acid Mothers Temple Soul Collective. The group released its debut album in 1997 on PSF Records (Japan), and it was selected as one of the year’s best albums in the The Wire magazine (UK). In 1998 the group played their first tours of the US and Europe. Since then the group has released a huge number of albums on labels from many different countries. As of 2017, the group has released around 80 albums. Every year since 1998, they have toured extensively in the US and Europe, and more recently have started performing around Asia and in Japan too. The group has performed in collaboration with many musicians including psychedelic originators Gong and Guru Guru, Simeon (Silver Apples), Nik Turner (Hawkwind), and the Occitanian trad singer Rosina de Peira. Japanese collaborators have included Afrirampo, Tatsuya Yoshida (Ruins), Maso Yamazaki (Masonna), Seiichi Yamamoto (Boredoms), Jun Kuriyama (The Ox), and many others.
The Macks
(Portland, OR)
Genre: Blues, Garage Rock
The Macks are brothers Josef and Ben Windheim, Sam Fulwiler, Jacob Michael Perris, and Aidan Harrison. In 2022, the band came out with their lockdown project Rabbit, a raw and progressive take on rock and roll that launched them towards festivals and tours from Idaho to Mexico City. And now, before taking even a moment to breathe, The Macks are following it up with another release just months later. Self-produced in their Portland home, Dajiban builds on the creative successes of Rabbit, driving the band into more expansive, catchy, gnarly, and unmistakably “Macks” territory. With a lineup that has the group firing on all cylinders both live and in the studio, “Portland’s Best New Band” (WW) is exuding an invitational power that has folks turning heads, tuning in, and spelling it right.
