Lords of Acid Light Up Seattle with Electrifying “Praise The Lords” Tour Stop at El Corazon

Seattle (May 30, 2025) – Lords of Acid brought their Praise The Lords tour to a packed El Corazon Friday night, delivering an electrifying performance that was equal parts spectacle and sonic mayhem. Supporting acts DJ AllyKat and Little Miss Nasty set the tone for the night with high energy, unapologetic performances that primed the crowd for the techno-industrial chaos to follow.

The evening opened with a pulsing DJ set from DJ AllyKat, whose seamless mix of hypnotic trance, driving techno and high-octane dance tracks transformed the venue into a neon-lit rave. Her command of the decks and intuitive flow kept the audience in constant motion, setting a thumping foundation for the rest of the night.

Following the DJ set, the stage lights shifted and Little Miss Nasty stormed in, turning up the heat with a raunchy, high-intensity burlesque show. Their provocative choreography, seductive pole routines, and live body painting captivated the crowd. The dancers’ synchronized movements were fierce, commanding full attention as they blurred the lines between erotic art and raw empowerment.

When Lords of Acid finally took the stage, the energy in the room reached a fever pitch. This show marked their first Seattle performance since the addition of Carla Harvey, former co-vocalist of Butcher Babies, who now fronts the band. Harvey’s presence was magnetic and fierce. Her vocals added a fresh yet faithful edge to the Lords’ signature sound, showcasing a raw versatility that elevated the live performance.

Early in the set, the band encountered a brief technical delay at the end of the first song. But Harvey used the moment to connect. With charm and sincerity, she spoke about her journey from Lords of Acid fan to frontwoman, describing it as a surreal honor. She then engaged the crowd in conversation, creating an unexpected highlight when an audience member revealed it was his birthday. Without hesitation, Harvey led the crowd in an impromptu “Happy Birthday,” turning a glitch into a moment of connection and joy.

When the band launched into the track “Rubber Doll,” a plastic blow-up doll was hurled into the crowd, sending the audience into hysterics. The timing was perfect. The inflatable companion surfed the crowd for the rest of the night, passed from hand to hand as it bounced over heads, becoming an absurd and unforgettable mascot for the wild evening.

The band tore through an eclectic set packed with fan favorites. During “Worship the Lords,” Little Miss Nasty returned to the stage with a double-sided sign reading Praise the Lords on one side and Fuck the Rest on the other. The provocative display, combined with their animated dancing and middle fingers in the air, embodied the rebellious spirit of the night.

Later, during “Pussy,” Harvey invited female audience members onstage. A wave of fans rushed forward, dancing and celebrating themselves as they leaned into the moment, both literally and figuratively. The crowd interaction was electric, and the bond between performer and fan was unmistakable.

As the final notes rang out, the crowd erupted in cheers and applause, pleading for more. The band lingered briefly, shaking hands and waving to fans, before making their exit from a stage they had thoroughly conquered.

For longtime followers and new fans alike, this show was a reminder of what makes Lords of Acid iconic; boundless energy, explicit liberation and a touch of chaos. Carla Harvey’s addition to the band is not just fitting, it is inspired. Her presence breathes new life into a group already known for pushing boundaries.

The Praise The Lords tour continues through June 29th, wrapping in Las Vegas. For anyone seeking a wild, unforgettable night of music, dance and raw attitude, this tour is not to be missed.
