Dream-punkers Acid Kicks are having a record release party for their 7” Life Dreams this Saturday night at Little Berlin. By now, you should know that the four-piece is made up of 3 bassists and a drummer (with occasional wails and dissonant trumpet accents), which may sound like the beginning of joke about musicians, but the joke will be on you if you don’t come tomorrow night to the DIY art space. They’ll be joined by South Philly psych rock outfit True Gold, who will be releasing a split album with Acid Kicks in the near future via Phonographic Arts, Mindless Attack, and a solo set by Al Creedon (Reading Rainbow, Swimmers Ear). Come underground and live the punk dream! Little Berlin, 2430 Coral St., 8pm, All Ages – Alexis V.
