There's a difference between a show rocking and a show ROCKING. Last night's Tobacco show at Chop Suey rocked (notice, not in all caps) but never book off into that stratospheric "holy shit, am I even on the same planet right now?" territory that he and his other group (blissed-out space jammers Black Moth Super Rainbow) have proven themselves capable of. 

Coming onto a dark stage with no announcement or fanfare, Tobacco (Tom Fec) and his accomplice, The Seven Fields of Aphelion (Maux Boyle) fired up a video projector, plugged in a laptop, strapped on a guitar, and went straight into a full blown assault of dark, swampy, psychedelic hip-hop.
