ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE

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
Described as walloping "heaviosity" threaded with streams of blues and thrash, The Macks have an unmistakable sound. In 2022, the band came out with their lockdown project "Rabbit." That third LP was a raw and progressive take on rock and roll that launched The Macks towards tours and festivals like Treefort in Idaho and MonkeyBee in Mexico City. Before taking a moment to breathe, the band released the "Dajiban" LP just months later. Self-produced in a Portland home shared by three band members, "Dajiban" drove the The Macks into more expansive, catchy, gnarly, and distinct territory.
The Macks push all the boundaries with "The Macks are a Knife." The LP released mid-2024 with Devil Duck Records. The band is comprised of brothers Josef and Ben Windheim, Sam Fulwiler, Jacob Michael Perris, and Aidan Harrison. The energy and dedication behind each member and the support of Devil Duck Records has The Macks firing on all cylinders with new material both live and back in the studio. "Portland's Best New Band" of 2022 continues to impress.

  • Acid Mothers Temple

    Acid Mothers Temple

    Psychedelic

    The sprawling universe of that is Acid Mothers Temple was formed in 1995 by Kawabata Makoto. Originally titled the Acid Mothers Temple soul-collective and encompassing musicians, dancers, artists, farmers, channellers, ex-yakuza, mermaid researchers and professional vagrants, the collective has always had at its core a dedication to improvised music. Now with a history of over two decades, and a discography of over one hundred releases, which is not to mention the numerous solo and side-project releases which encompass everything from drone, acid-folk, acapella, to minimalist composition, the group show no signs of relenting in the pace of their creative energy.

    In December 2017 Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso UFO welcomed new vocalist Jyonson Tsu, and performed an initial show together in Tokyo at the Annual Acid Mothers Temple Festival. Sadly this era also marked the departure from the band of long-standing member Mitsuru Tabata. This new incarnation of the AMT collective, featuring founders Kawabata and Higashi, at the helm, plus the recently recruited rhythm section of Sakamoto and Uchida who joined the group in 2015. The band tour  Europe in this new incarnation for the first time in Autumn 2018.
