Sian Alice Group, The Boxing Lesson The Orange Show	Tue., September 22, 8:00pm	East End	Indie
59.59, the debut from England's Sian Alice Group, is a bit of a trap. When frontwoman Sian Ahern's lilting, beguiling voice is paired with the band's orchestrally captivating ebb and flow, it's easy to inadvertently turn off the part of your brain that actively engages with sound, to lose...

Butthole Surfers, Psychic Ills House of Blues	Thu., September 24, 8:00pm	Downtown/ Midtown	Hard Rock Indie Metal Psychedelic Punk
Any way you look at it, stoned or sober, sellouts or stalwarts, the Butthole Surfers appearing at House of Blues is a weird revolution all by itself. The 25-year-old sultans of strange are booked into plenty of other corporate-type venues on the tour that brings Gibson Haynes and friends home to... More >>

The Horrors, Crocodiles Walter's on Washington	Thu., September 24, 8:00pm	Heights	Gothic Indie
Whereas 2007's Strange House found the Horrors meeting the Cramps and the Ramones halfway while singing about Jack the Ripper, follow-up Primary Colours finds the English youngsters trading in their scrappy verve for atmospheric brooding. Here the Horrors look for inspiration from Suicide, the... More >>

Ra Ra Riot, Princeton, Maps & Atlases Warehouse Live	Fri., September 25, 8:00pm	East End	Indie
2006 may not seem like that long ago to most folks, but, in the time since, Syracuse's Ra Ra Riot has been through a lot.

Monotonix, Golden Axe, Cop Warmth, Harlem Super Happy Fun Land	Sat., September 26, 8:00pm	Heights	Hard Rock Indie
When it comes to packing bodies into rock clubs, it doesn’t hurt to have a reputation for kinetic live shows. Tel Aviv’s Monotonix is a punk-informed trio amassing a devoted international fanbase thanks to constant touring and a primal, Black Sabbath–inflected cacophony and... More >>

Busdriver, Abstract Rude, Guerilla Falco Clan Walter's on Washington	Sun., September 27, 8:00pm	Heights	Hip Hop Indie
One of underground hip-hop’s more challenging artists, Los Angeles rapper Busdriver’s flow is both instinctive and adroit, filled with lightning-fast runs, dazzling flashes of poetry, and impressive vocal shapeshifting. He leaps from impish, sing-songy elocution to a half-speed,... More >>

Little Joe Washington Boondocks	Every week Tuesday, 9:00pm	Montrose	Blues Folk Hipster Indie Rock
On his second album for Austin's Dialtone Records (following 2003's Houston Guitar Blues), the blues flows so effortlessly out of Little Joe Washington's guitar it's hard to believe any of these 14 songs needed more than one take. Washington's feverish runs and penetrating leads - which fly by... More >>
