Acid Mothers Temple, Babylon — April 22, 2017 at Knitting Factory

April 22, 2017

Knitting Factory in Brooklyn

This is one of those shows that was marred by bad sound i.e. A sound man who doesn't know how to handle loud rock bands. I suspect after looking at the list upcoming performers coming to this venue sounded like singer songwriters or straight up pop bands. We only recognized one artist and that was a comedian. Babylon were painfully too loud. If they were hearing what we were - I don't know how they were able to pull it off. Acid Mother Temple- same situation. The crowd seemed to roll with it just fine. Of note - looking at th 2 sound guys painful expressions on their faces - We knew were not only ones noticing this. We left about an hour into AMT’s set. God Bless the 529 and their awesome sound they get in such a small room. They take care of all bands that come through. True Professionals! Atlanta has got it too good (repeat repeat repeat)...
