What Is Your Favourite Acid Mothers Temple Track Then? - Page 2

RanaldoNecro · 04.05.2010, 12:54 PM

Last night was my first exposure to AMT. The guitarist obviously was the show stopper. I saw shades of Thurston in his playing as well.

There wasn't much fanfare which was a relief. Seemed to be a bit of humor in what they where doing as well. The electronics were an excellent touch as well...

I want more

I've never caught AMT before, thinking about going this time around. Their page is calling it their "Last Tour in US & Canada 2012". It also seems like they have some CDs called things like "Last Tokyo Show" from several years ago, that their understanding of the meaning of the word "last" might be different than mine, and that they like to play semantic pranks and cosmic jokes. Do they mean "most recent" or "final"?

i remember reading that there were so few people at the "last tokyo show" gig
that they vowed never to play there again. not sure if they have or not.
i'm really not sure if this tour will be the last but i would very much recommend you check them out!

hirsute_biped · 03.25.2012, 01:28 PM

Seems like they're also playing up the 2012 aztec/mayan cosmic apocalypse angle, and hence "last". Fits in nicely with their UFO/cosmic consciousness thing. Maybe the only band that could get away with such shenanigans and hold my interest. I don't know their music very well aside from some youtube videos, i'm looking to go in with few reference points and have my mind melted.

We got tickets, same week as Lee's show in LA.

I'm planning on seeing AMT next month in Houston. Has anyone here seen them in 2012 and if so, what did you think? Also, where may I find a setlist from this tour?

hirsute_biped · 04.10.2012, 08:35 PM

I'll let you know after Friday night.

AMT was pretty rad last night. Heavy psych avant space rock w/ noisy bits & eccentric vocal improv. Their new record, Son of a Bitches Brew, is supposedly more jazz influenced, which I think to them just means more abstract open ended jamming and occasional soprano sax blasts. Highlight was extended Pink Lady Lemonade, the only song of theirs I recognize, and perhaps their best, but if you're a long time die hard AMT fan maybe it's passé? I recorded the whole thing, seems like it turned out well, so hopefully within the week I will upload it here. Their current lineup is five guys, and is listed on their website.

Well, maybe it's not so critical I upload mine then, but I suppose the more the merrier. A surround sound mix perhaps? We ended up buying the Pink Lady Lemonade ...You're From Inner Space 2LP reissue on pink/black bicolored vinyl ltd to 500 copies, and an LP from openers Pond who are 2/3 or 3/4 or some ratio of Tame Impala (who are awesome).

My edit is done, waiting for some bandwidth to upload overnight. Made up my own titles, edited to five tracks including soundcheck as opposed to the six listed above.

hirsute_biped · 04.22.2012, 02:39 PM

Here is my recording of Acid Mothers Temple 2012/04/13 @ The Echo, Los Angeles, CA

http://wtrns.fr/7nOErrdp8fi2iX

dimers can upload to dime if they wish, or not if they don't wish

I don't know the real names of most of these songs, but enjoyed making them up based on AMT's current record title "Son Of A Bitches Brew", transcriptions of their chants, their penchant for reworking classic rock titles, their fondness for psychedelic artwork featuring female nudes, a line from Homer's Odyssey (I think), and their 2012 Mayan-Apocalypse-themed tour poster.

1. (soundcheck)
2. Son of A Bitches Brew/Tsuyama Runs the VooDoo Down
3. Shine On You Crazy Diamond Raga (accapella)/Ass-Tronime Dominae-trix/Set The Controls For The Ass Of The Nun/Carefull with That Ass, Eugene
4. Pink Lady Lemonade ...You're From Inner Space/Ya He Ya Ho Wah Wah/The Rosey Tipped Nipples Of Dawn (Pink Lady coda)
5. AMT mistakenly wait for The Mayan Feathered Serpent God, Quetzalcoatl, at the Incan site at Machu Picchu, Peru in the Year 2012.
