Japanther + Night Toilet + Nonhorse + Sun Color

Japanther's anthemic noise pop can sound a little thin on record, but the band's knack for whipping a roomful of young hipsters into a frenzy is awesome to behold. This is punk as performance art, and few in town do it better. Also of note is Nonhorse, otherwise known as G. Lucas Crane, a cassette whiz who makes dark electronic soundscapes.
