L.A. trio ASHRR brought the croontastic synth-rock of their debut “Oscillator” (coming out Friday) to the Bootleg Theater for an album-release show on Tuesday night. Nattily attired singer Steven Davis held forth in front of shape-shifting projections as the band conjured up echoes of Bowie/Tin Machine and Roxy Music.

Highlights included the singles “All Yours All Mine,” “Sometimes” and “Made Up Your Mind” — plus ASHRR tossed in a muscular cover of Siouxsie & the Banshees’ “Cities In Dust.”

Proper Junkies and Nightjacket (who played six songs off their forthcoming album “Beauty in the Dark”) opened the night.
