Lords of Acid Was aMEAzing at the Nokia

Lords of Acid returned to Club Nokia in Los Angeles on Wednesday night to kick off their 2011 Sonic Angel Tour. The Cirque du Fetish like atmosphere began as newly crowned club princess DJ Mea opened up the set with 'Drink My Honey'. Within the first few seconds of taking the stage, DJ Mea seemed to have shakin' any nerves off and became one with the music. It soon noticeable that newly crowned frontwoman was in charge of the stage as she moved around in her bikini top and frequent costume and hair changes. What may have been lacking with previous vocalist Lacey Connor's became the highlight of new vocalists DJ Mea's antics on and around the stage. Although the show was more club themed this time around, it was still visually stunning and fan sentiment was that the band rocked the house.
Main man Praga Kahn seemed to be enjoying things more this time around, although it may have been a few extra shots with the band members backstage. However inebriated he may have been, he didn't miss a beat on stage and kept the club vibe going throughout the show and two encores.
If you are in the mood for something different than the typical metal show with fans wearing their favorite screamo t-shirt, then check out the Sextreme Ball and let your inhibitions run wild.
