Black=psych these days I guess.

Get it while you can. The OG Euro pressings were hoovered up pretty quickly.
Here's some live vids. 2nd one is 22 minutes long with bad sound but gives a good idea of the show.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club sound like biker-rock meets Jesus & Mary Chain (or they did at one point). The father of one of them was in The Call
The Black Angels did some shit with UNKLE, iirc, but I've never heard them on their own.
Tinariwen are a kind of Tuareg afro-blues-trance outfit from the Malian desert.
Clinic are from Liverpool, and are sort of garagey neo-psych. Their gimmick used to be wearing surgical gowns and masks onstage. I dunno if they still do this.
I think Acid Mothers Temple are Japanese and have some sort of affiliation with The Boredoms but I'm not certain.
That's about all the help I can give you.
In short, yes.
It's hard to tell what AMT you are going to get at any given performance...either ash ra temple-esque skullfuck or floppy hat airbrushed mushroom jams
they used to do some of the music for Space Ghost Coast-to-Coast, as any stoner who stayed up late watching Cartoon Network in the late 90s may recall. That's how I learned about them and, oddly enough, about Sonny Sharrock.
Whattup B,
Yes sir! You are absolutely one of the first dudes I thought to go visit out there..
Friends of Sound, Alamo Drafthouse & Psychfest. Can't wait!

I ended up copping it
I think Roky is going to have Billy Gibbons/Moving Sidewalks backing him up, so it could be great.
Who else is going?

Sounds like it could be Harvey meets Guzzo...if anyone ever thought that possible.
