Acid Mothers Temple Tickets

Formed in 1995 by Makoto Kawabata at the same time as the Acid Mothers Temple Soul
Collective. The group released its debut album in 1997 on PSF Records (Japan), and it was
selected as one of the year's best albums in the The Wire magazine (UK). In 1998 the group
played their first tours of the US and Europe. Since then the group has released a huge number
of albums on labels from many different countries. As of 2017, the group has released around
80 albums. Every year since 1998, they have toured extensively in the US and Europe, and
more recently have started performing around Asia and in Japan too. The group has performed
in collaboration with many musicians including psychedelic originators Gong and Guru Guru,
Simeon (Silver Apples), Nik Turner (Hawkwind), and the Occitanian trad sinder Rosina de Peira.
Japanese collaborators have included Afrirampo, Tatsuya Yoshida (Ruins), Maso Yamazaki
(Masonna), Seiichi Yamamoto (Boredoms), Jun Kuriyama (The Ox), and many others.

In 2016, 21 years since the group's founding, there was a major shift in the line-up and "Next
Generation" was added to the name. We now view the first 20 years as chapter one in our story,
and we are now turning the page to start chapter two.
The group played more than 100 shows in each year, toured in Europe, North America, South
America, Oceania and Asia, also Japan. They also played many festivals (Glastonbury Festival
