Acid Mothers Temple // Epic, 19.08.14

I am emotioned-out by the whole set, and I am now The Virginmarys biggest brand new fan.

Mark Chadwick is looking a bit more rounded these days but is still in impeccable voice ably supported on vocal duties by the boiler suited Dan Donnelly.

This Welsh indie duo made a welcome return to the Norwich Arts Centre hot on the back of their latest album Every Single Muscle.

He spoke lovingly about Yellow Submarine, Pinky and Perky and the moon landings before his teenage years led to Oxfam for clothes.

Whilst the band no longer consists of its original line-up, what remains is their expert energy curation. The Maytals brought their unmistakable feelgood atmosphere to Norwich’s Waterfront on Thursday night.

It’s been yet another anthemic night, with one classic DMA song after another

Bluesy garage tock ‘n’ roll ‘n’ soul never testified so hard. An enthralling, joyous wall of beautiful sound.

Another evening of quiet, mellow, contemplative music. Or not…

Another excellent evening at the Holloway.

Hardcore that it is as fun as it is intense and cathartic? Yes, please.

A cracking night of post-punky, riot-grrlesque, doomy catharsis.

A mixed bag where Pavlis enjoyed both supports but was less moved by the headliners than the rest of the crowd.
