Though the neon signs out front are a bit foreboding, this cutting-edge bar on Edgewood is well worth braving a step inside. A multi-ethnic sensorium from the percussionist-turned-entrepreneur Luis Carreras, booze is poured on the gound floor amidst giant paintings, and upstairs none-too-little-known acts perform with state-of-the-art light and sound. It's rough and beguiling, dangerous and sweet: a fine acolyte of Atlanta's spirit.
