Top 7 choices from the embarrassment of show riches tonight in Los Angeles (and a handful of recommended downloads to boot):

‣ Greg Dulli and Carina Round at the sold-out Troubadour. The Afghan Whigs/Twilight Singers main man is doing his first-ever solo tour, and reviews have been great. “Dynamite Steps,” the first Twilight Singers album since 2006, is due Feb. 15 on Sub Pop.
‣ Blonde Redhead and Olof Arnalds at the Music Box. BR’s new album “Penny Sparkle” is just out; here’s a taste.
‣ The Thermals and White Fang at the El Rey Theatre. (Did you catch the video for “I Don’t Believe You”?)
‣ Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin and the Lonely Forest at Spaceland. That’s SSLYBY’s video for the seriously catchy “Sink/Let It Sway,” above.
‣ Austin indie-poppers Oh No Oh My (with Pomegranates and Rabbits Rabbits Rabbits) at the Bootleg Theater.
‣ Legendary Pink Dots, coming round after 30 years, with We Are the World at the Echoplex.
‣ And Har Mar Superstar at the Viper Room, for those about to party.
