Blogged-about indie-rockers, legendary punks, and mobile dance parties: This year’s Fun Fun Fun Fest has it all, including a headlining reunion show from the late, lamented Murder City Devils that should have the whole music world’s eyes on Waterloo Park this weekend. But it’s not just nostalgia acts (although there are plenty of veterans like Angry Samoans, The Saints, and Lifetime whose LPs make up the backbone of many a punk’s record collection): This year’s Fest boasts a who’s who of the here and now, including buzzworthy names like The New Pornographers, Against Me!, Okkervil River, Girl Talk, Battles, Ted Leo, Of Montreal, and Explosions In The Sky. While you’re out basking in the crisp autumn weather (reason enough alone to make Fx4 the year’s most enjoyable outdoor festival) take a moment to thank the rock gods that you live in Austin. They like to feel appreciated.

Eyebrows arched when local country-folk clan Brothers And Sisters toured with post-hardcore provocateurs …And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead last year—and the middling reception confirmed that the band’s breezy, Topanga Canyon vibe didn’t exactly translate to emo ears. That baptism by fire appears to have inspired the band’s newest LP, Fortunately: Lead single “You’re Gone” is driven by crashing, jangly power chords that are less The Byrds than fellow Byrds-watchers R.E.M. While still not histrionic enough for the hoodie crowd, those burnt on the plaid-and-prairie-dress scene might appreciate the group throwing a little gasoline on the campfire. This local release show (CD included with admission) also features reverb-driven retro-poppers Shapes Have Fangs and straight-outta-Deadwood country creeps Frank Smith. (Brothers And Sisters also play a Waterloo Records in-store on July 16 at 5pm.)
