This Week In Music
Thursday
By the time you read this, Crawler follower, I will be in a meat-sammy stupor and have a beard full of barbecue sauce as I watch the stars pop over Pappy & Harriet’s in Pioneertown. Later in the evening punk’d doo-wop duo Arish “King” Khan and Mark “BBQ” Sultan, aka the King Khan & BBQ Show, will take the stage at the high-desert hideaway behind their latest In the Red record, Bad News Boys. Another band I’ve been dying to get hip to is Get Hip Records’ show-openers Paint Fumes, a self-described “panic attack punk” trio out of Charlotte, NC, touring in support of their sophomore set If It Ain’t Paint Fumes It Ain’t Worth a Huff. This same lineup hits the Casbah stage Friday night and, yeah, I’ll probably go to that one, too.... Around town Thursday night, you’ve got L.A. art-punk brothers Wyatt and Fletcher Shears, aka the Garden, touring in support of their last Burger Records release, haha, and playing Ché Café with So Pitted and Heyrocco. If you like it weird, don’t sleep on this triple bill...O.C. hardcore hits Death by Stereo sets up at Soda Bar after Aussie rockers Poison Headache and our own Authentic Sellout...while Gram Rabbit, SeaBase, and Rafter fill a funyun at Casbah. Get the low-down on three-bass band SeaBase in last week’s “All about that bass” Blurt.
3 Friday
The aforementioned King Khan & BBQ Show/ Paint Fumes gig at Casbah has local Nuggets dig- gers the Kabbs opening the show with their ’60s- style beach punk. That’d be the show to see.... Else on Friday: wearing rabbit ears and not much else,

Rose Windows guitarist Chris Cheveyo.... Best of the rest Saturday night finds the Vans pop-punk band Wonder Years on the all-ages main stage at Soma after Real Friends and Knuckle Puck... English heavy-metal band Diamond Head will be hard-rocking Brick by Brick behind this year’s self- titled record after Symbolic, Bastard Saints, and the Dolan Brotherhood...while NYC dirty-funk four-piece TAUK takes the stage at the Loft at UCSD after likeminded locals Bomb Squad.
Sunday KING KHAN & BBQ SHOW AT CASBAH
that garage-punk ’Zonie Nobunny joins our own Soft Lions and Fresh Brunettes on the Hideout stage in Normal
Heights...Beasto Blanco, featur- ing Alice Cooper alum Chuck Garric, headlines sets at Brick by Brick after Angel Shade, Big Tooth Comb, and Night Shadow...while Pansy Division brings its pop-punk latest, Quite Contrary, to Soda Bar after Stalins of Sound and Gunner Gunner. The Reader’s Andrew Hamlin had a chat with Pansy Division bassist Chris Free- man in this week’s “Soundtrack of my life” Blurt, so flip or click there for more on them.
Saturday
North Park’s Fall Brewing Company will celebrate two years of drawing their fine craft suds at Casbah with dance jams by them haunted organ-grinders Creepy Creeps, as well as the Widows, Jon Cougar Concentration Camp, and a Schizophonics MC5 Revue.... Indie-folkie Seattle act the Cave Sing- ers (ex–Pretty Girls Make Graves) will be in town in support of this year’s Jag-

jaguwar offering Banshee, which according to Allmusic is “an im-
THE GARDEN AT CHÉ CAFÉ
pressive piece of work that speaks to the mind and the soul with similar clarity.” They play Soda Bar with ex–
Ty Segall, King Tuff, and Emmett Kelly (Cairo Gang) fill a solo-Sunday-nighters bill at the Hideout. Mr. Segall’s latest, this year’s Emo- tional Mugger, is a satisfyingly noisy garage- psych affair, as is almost everything produced by King Tuff, so this isn’t going to be some “unplugged” yawner. I don’t think...if it is, though, and you need a change of scenery/ soundery, the heaviosity of Providence, RI’s Daughters (grindcore) and the Body (sludge metal) is right up the street at Soda Bar. The Earplug Index for that charts.... At of the sonic
6 PETER HOOK & THE LIGHT AT HOUSE OF BLUES one is off the
the other end spectrum,
from Rocka-way Beach, NYC,
folk-rocking Wednesday
From Detroit, four-piece Protomartyr sets up at Soda Bar behind their latest, last year’s critical hit The Agent Intellect. If you’re a fan of the post- punk brand and you’ve yet to give these guys a listen — like I’ve been telling you and telling you — wtfaywf? The Gotobeds and Keepers open this go-to show.... Otherwises: Sactown’s experimental hip-hop group Death Grips hits the Observatory with this year’s Bottomless Pit...
9 TY SEGALL AT THE HIDEOUT
duo Lewis Del Mar visits Casbah behind their new self-titled debut. Brooklyn-based indie-pop trio Prinze George will open that show.
Monday
“The rock ’n’ roll boogie woogie twist and shout.” Touring in support of this year’s classic-rocker High Bias, Philly fave Mike Polizze’s psych-bent band Purling Hiss hits the Hideout Monday night after Glen Galloway’s (Octagrape) new joint, Suma- traban...while right up the road, Soda Bar sets up Aussie acts Dune Rats (stoner pop) and DZ Deathrays (dance punk), if you like to mix your gigs.... Otherwise, you got Southern Culture on the Skids. The Chapel Hill trio is touring in support of this year’s “twangy Southern surf” set Electric Pinecones and will play Casbah’s Anti-Monday with them busy and getting busier garage wreckers the Schizophonics.

Tuesday
Peter Hook & the Light set up at House of Blues on Tues. They will be performing Substance — both Joy Division’s and New Order’s best-of sets. So, Sub- stances. I can’t imagine any-

else you’d rather be, but if you miss the
door downtown [shaming ellipses] Gavin Rossdale and his British alt-rock quartet Bush will be at the Observatory North
Park...indie-rock singer/ songwriter Nina Diaz (Girl in a Coma) is at Soda Bar behind her Beat Is Dead record...
and Astronautilus and Oxymorron split an underground hip-hop bill at Casbah.
PROTOMARTYR AT SODA BAR
and from San Antonio, Texas, Latina punk band Fea visits Til-Two. They’re also ex–Girl in a Coma (see Nina Diaz above) and, upping the cred, their new self-titled album is out now on Joan Jett’s Blackheart Records and was produced by punk icon Alice Bag. Spinning it as I wrap this week’s picks and I am banging my cabeza. — Barnaby Monk
