Arizonan Shawn Foree’s new Goner LP, Sorcerer (mastered by Jay Reatard, in case that’s important), isn’t exactly the genre-bending music of the future it’s purported to be, but it delivers the goods anyhow, slapping down a studio side of sneering electro and live side of trashy punk. Locals the Young debut their new Super Secret 7-inch, while the Teeners and Plano’s the Secret Bangs warm up the crowd with competent punk variations. – Daniel Mee

The Melvins have begun a second life since the addition of two-man wrecking crew Big Business, which pulls double duty as opener. Their monolithic second album together, Nude With Boots (Ipecac), is chock-full of midtempo metal dirges, tandem drum sequences, and thundering Zeppelin grooves. The sludge oozes over to Beauty Bar on Saturday with the semiannual return of Tia Carrera side project Migas and Oh, Beast! – Austin Powell
