Even with so many great things going on, this still might be the best show of the week. If nothing else it will definitely be the most guitar heavy experience to be had. The so-called "loudest band in New York" A Place to Bury Strangers are the main attraction, a seriously powerful noise-rock trio whose recent debut album has been hailed by critics across the country. They will be accompanied by a fellow trio in the form of the impressive, female fronted grunge rock trio Ume and The Boxing Lesson's wall of guitars. Make this your perfect excuse for skipping out on doing nothing on a Sunday night.

Saturday night of South by Southwest 08, Downtown patrons filed into Cedar Street Courtyard for a casual drink. Within minutes, A Place to Bury Strangers cleared the place with an absolutely deafening set of Joy Division-inspired shoegaze from last year’s self-titled debut. The effect was unintentional. Guitarist/singer Oliver Ackermann custom-designs the NYC-based trio’s sonic effects, but beneath the grating layers of distortion are bona fide pop songs. Locals the Boxing Lesson and Ume open. Earplugs required. – Austin Powell
