Acid Mothers Temple leader Kawabata Makoto has reunited his psychedelic attack group Mainliner after a break of over a decade, and the Japanese free noise group appear tonight for the first part of a threatened ‘Brighton invasion’ (part two brings AMT to Sticky Mike’s Frog Bar next month, on Sun 6th Oct). Along with original Mainliner drummer Koji Shimura, the line-up now features Bo Ningen screamer Kawabe Taigen on bass, the pair underpinning Makoto’s whirlwind freak-metal guitar assault. Batten down your braincells.
