0

Incoming: The Rolling Stones, Holy Ghost!, Laura Marling, Dillinger Escape Plan, Atlas Genius, the Black Angels, the Presets, the Postelles, Kate Nash, Daughter, Youngblood Hawke, Carla Morrison, Sweet & Tender Hooligans, Shout Out Louds, Breathe Carolina, Turbonegro, Cold War Kids, Mikal Cronin, Opeth, Amanda Jo Williams, Sir Sly, Fleetwood Mac, War, Imperial Teen, Juanes, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Smoke Season, Stornoway, the Damned

Above: Swedish indie-poppers Shout Out Louds are back with a new album “Optica” (just out on Merge), and they visit the El Rey Theatre on Thursday and Friday.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: In a week of excellent 1-2 punches (the Presets and Dragonette on Tuesday; Cold War Kids and Superhumanoids on Friday), none packs more clout than Tuesday night at the Mayan, where the Black Angels play behind their great new album “Indigo Meadow” and Hanni El Khatib – his second album “Head in the Dirt” just out – adds even more muscle.x

@Seraphina_L recommends: San Francisco-based garage-rocker-turned-power-popper Mikal Cronin comes through town in support of his latest album “MCII” (out now via Merge). Cronin will be headlining Friday’s show at the Echo with L.A. punk quartet Pangea and Cleveland, Ohio-based lo-fi rockers Gap Dream as support for a solid lineup.
