Above: That’s Band of Skulls‘ video for “Nightmares,” a track off their forthcoming album “Himalayan” (due April 1 via Electric Blues Recordings via Kobalt Label Services). The U.K. trio stops by Tuesday at the Belasco Theatre.

Our staff picks of the week:

@KRBronson recommends: Even at $35 a day, Burgerama III this weekend at the Observatory is a bargain. The Saturday lineup is topped by the Growlers, the Black Lips and Death (any list of must-sees that day would also include Broncho), and Sunday brings FIDLAR, Together Pangea, Mac Demarco, Allah-Las and Kooth Keith. There are about 70 bands in all.

@Seraphina_L recommends: If you weren’t lucky enough to see Jungle – one of the most buzzed-about bands that made their SXSW debut last week – then I hope you were lucky enough to snag a ticket to Monday’s show where they will be playing with James Supercave at the Echo. This Monday night ain’t free, kids.
