Show Preview: Lords of Acid & My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult @ Studio Seven, Tues. 7/13

Posted on 07/12/2010 by Dagmar

Lords of Acid and My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult kick off their Sextreme Ball 2010 tour at Seattle’s Studio Seven on Tuesday, July 13th. As an extra special treat, the great Praga Khan will also appear with Lords of Acid. This is a huge deal for electronic fans. I don’t think Lords of Acid has been to Seattle before, and to include original member Praga Khan, well, it’s a pinch me moment. I have loved Lords of Acid and Praga Khan since I first heard them. Thrill Kill Kult is of course absolutely awesome too.

Photos and Review: The Melvins @ The ShowBox

Melvins

You may be dismayed to see three reviews of The Melvins but don’t be. They were so full of energy that it took three photographers to capture it. They took the stage like Attila The Hun took Rome. With Buzz Osborne (lead guitar) and Jarred Warren (Bass) leading the way, the two drummers (Dale Crover and Coady Willis) kept the crowd mesmerized with their perfect timing. I had never see The Melvins play before but I knew as soon as they started that I wasn’t going home until the end.

The Melvins play the Crocodile on September 25th. Do what it takes to see that show.

The Melvins played the Showbox Market the other night and at least a couple of them were wearing what might be Viking outfits? I am not sure what the garb is but I think they look fabulous! Photographer Jackie Canchola took some expressive shots as the band played. If you missed it they’ll be back in Seattle with a date at the Crocodile on September 25th.

What’s better than two magnificent drummers playing different beats at the same time? Try three. All playing something different and yet sounding so awesome. This was part of went down at the Glitch Mob‘s recent show in Seattle, along with the fabulous multi-instrument talent of each band member. Screens were filled with way out footage of things like a praying mantis and shooting gas pumps in a sweet night I remember with major fondness. Their debut CD, Drink the Sea, is out now.
