LIMITED! A super wild, punishingly dark slab of experimental psychedelic hell where fuzz blasted, ultra riffing and hypnotic speed guru guitar chaos - courtesy of Mr. Kawabata Makoto - meet early Amon Duul-influenced druggy, acoustic, mantric folk experimentalisms and eastern drones from below. The scent of sulphur fills the air and brings on the Japanese psychedelic inferno!

Japan's psychedelic rangers are back! "Mantra of Love" is destined to be a classic release in the expanding catalogue of one of today's most exciting psychedelic ensembles. The recording is made up of two tracks. "La Le Lo" is a traditional Occitan piece largely based around the very melodic vocals of Cotton Casino. The recording's 15-minute closing track, "L'Ambition dans le Miroir," is a melodic and easy listening piece, with spacey electronics and great guitar lines. "Mantra of Love" is the perfect relea   [ read more ]

"Third PSF album from the Nagoya-based (but always heavenly-bound) Acid Mothers Temple & the Melting Paraiso U.F.O., led by Japan's current king of the long-hairs and mystic rock-guitar guru Makoto Kawabata (also of Musica Transonic, Mainliner, Toho Sara). Their previous releases were delirious communal Gong/Hawkwind patchouli collisions, colorful as a Life with the Hippie Jetsons cartoon, but with an acid punch that proved their music was beyond any idea of pastiche or irony.

Chances are, one tenth of a person out of every ten in the street--one in a hundred, to the layman--has tinnitus, a condition in which the sufferer hears a ringing or pulsing sound not caused by any external stimulus. Most often tinnitus drives people up the wall, and, consequently, to seek professional medical or psychological assistance. The ringing in his ears drove Makoto Kawabata of Acid Mothers Temple Soul Collective to his garage. There was the auspicious beginning - with a handful of handmade instru   [ read more ]

Japanese freakout drone wizards Acid Mothers Temple return for their 3rd release on Ace Fu (and their 20-something-th in general). This time the soul collective takes an hour plus crack at exploring the Daimoku Buddhist chant Nam Myo Ho Ren Ge Kyo Slowly but steadily piling on the guitars, keyboards and theremin, Acid Mothers take you on a journey to the center of the "drone zone." Much like their American contemporaries Sunn O))) Acid Mothers construct massive castles of sound but unlike their count   [ read more ]

This particular studio release came described as one of the band's heaviest efforts yet, recorded by the compact five-person lineup of 2002 in May of that year. Lead guitar maniacs Makoto Kawabata and Hiroshi Higashi, bassist Atsushi Tsuyama, drummer Hajime Koizumi, and singer/keyboardist Cotton Casino incarnate Acid Mothers Temple on this one, and the result is, unsurprisingly, mayhem. Given all of the various releases and spin-off efforts in existence, to be sure, selecting this one as a particular winner   [ read more ]
