Future of the Left

Welsh quartet Future of the Left does a quirky yet muscular sort of art rock, with traces of everything from Devo to the Clash. Tonight you'll hear from the band's latest, The Plot Against Common Sense. Me You Us Them opens on Nov 26 at Maxwell's, while Baltimore's Roomrunner—which does fuzz-drenched yet surprisingly hooky indie rock that proudly flaunts its Nirvana influence—sets the stage on Nov 27 at Knitting Factory.
