Oh, it’s Halloween?

Arcade Fire plays the Hollywood Palladium behind the new album “Reflektor.”
‣ Australian duo Empire of the Sun, joined by Alpine, bring their big electro shoe to the Shrine Auditorium. Empire of the Sun’s latest album “Ice on the Dune” came out in June, and that’s the video for “DNA,” above.
Iron & Wine kicks off a 12-date fall tour with a show at the Orpheum Theatre. Laura Mvula opens.
