Tonight in L.A.: Archers of Loaf, Psychic TV, Chromatics, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Soft Pack

0

Your Oscar-night music agenda:

‣ Nineties indie-rock provocateurs Archers of Loaf are back, with a remastered, deluxe version of 1995’s “Vee Vee” just out on Merge and similar editions of “All the Nation’s Airports” and “White Trash Heroes” due later this year. Dipping into the Chapel Hill quartet’s vaults has yielded (previously only VHS) videos such as the one for “Underachievers March and Fight Song,” above. And you can get a download of the remastered “Harnessed in Slums” here. Archers of Loaf play the Troubadour tonight, along with indie-pop trio Hospitality, who just released their debut album “Friends of Friends.”
‣ And from even further in Wayback Machine, reunited ’80s agitators Psychic TV headline the Echoplex.
Unknown Mortal Orchestra and White Arrows – who packed the Echoplex on Saturday night – head across town to the Central SAPC, where they will be joined by Jenny O.
