Bishop Allen, Twin Thousands, Spanish Prisoners
Music: Rock, Pop and Hip-HopFri., Nov. 20, 8 p.m.
It feels like forever since we've heard from Brooklyn's Bishop Allen — probably because their last record, Grrr, the follow up to 2007's outstanding The Broken String, came and went with very little fanfare. We went back and listened to it again the other day, and let us tell you: you should as well. It's not as obviously great as The Broken String, but it's got enough undeniably perfect moments that we feel comfortable telling you it got the short end of the stick. $15
Blind Pilot, Laura Veirs
Music: Rock, Pop and Hip-HopFri., Nov. 20, 8 p.m.
Bittersweet indie folk where, leading a pack of six, frontman Israel Nebeker sounds like he may be falling apart, but the wistful, infectious melodies march on. $15
The Eskalators, Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt, The Toothaches
Music: Rock, Pop and Hip-HopFri., Nov. 20, 8 p.m.
Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, These United States
Music: Rock, Pop and Hip-HopFri., Nov. 20, 10:30 p.m.
So, Pitchfork basically panned Miles Benjaminwhatshisname's new album, and you know what we say? F 'em. Sure, the dude tries really hard to sound like Bob Dylan at times, but Summer of Fear has enough genuinely moving moments and downright memorable melodies to deserve more than a 4.8. You should go tonight and decide for yourself/agree with us. $10
