PROTOMARTYR
at 7th Street Entry
Saturday, 03/12/16, 8pm ($10/$12)
first-avenue.com
There might be more than just a few transcendent moments when Protomartyr take over the Entry on the evening of March 12th. Last October, the Detroit quartet released their third LP The Agent Intellect, a collection of dark, punchy post-punk that has made quite a splash with fans and found its way onto many year-end lists. I can’t wait to watch frontman Joe Casey, gifted with slate-gray vocal chords that reference both Black Francis and Nick Cave, spit out lyrics like, “Your passive mind that thinks/‘Perhaps my ship’s come in’/That’s not gonna save you, man/That’s not gonna save you, man” while guitarist Greg Ahee creates a melody that shivers and flows. The song is “Dope Cloud” – go listen! Then go see Protomartyr on Saturday March 12th!
Opening are The Cult of Lip (formerly Vats) and Minneapolis four piece DIIE who are described as a tasty blend of psych-rock and desert jazz with an emphasis on shredding. Yesssssssssss.

TITUS ANDRONICUS
at Mill City Nights
Saturday, 03/12/16, 8pm ($20/$25)
millcitynights.com
Punk band Titus Andronicus (not to be confused with the William Shakespeare’s play) will be in town in support of their latest album The Most Lamentable Tragedy, which came out in 2015 via Merge Records.
Opening up will be local favorite Craig Finn (singer of The Hold Steady). We’ve seen Finn several times and will tell you that he has a ton of fans locally in the Minneapolis/St Paul area. I would not be surprise to find out that more than half the audience were there for Finn, at this coming Saturday show.

ROGER CLYNE & THE PEACEMAKERS
at Muse Event Center
Saturday, 03/12/16, 6pm ($30/ $35)
withonebreath.org
Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers will be headlining a fundraiser for cystic fibrosis this Saturday, March 12th. The event is at the Muse Event Center, which is right next to the Aria, in Minneapolis. Additional details at withonebreath.org
We previously caught Clyne in November 2015 and wrote that Clyne will play old The Refreshments songs: “It wasn’t just Refreshments tunes getting folks riled up; the Peacemakers have been happily pumping out catchy Western-flavored records for years. The audience worked up a sweat for rockers like “Americano” and “I Don’t Need Another Thrill” (from 2004’s Americano!) and “Never Thought” (1999’s Honky Tonk Union) while the slower-paced set closer “Green & Dumb” cooled things down to a gentle sway (the encore also included “Maybe We Should Fall In Love”.) The band’s new album The Independent was also well-represented within the setlist: “I Ain’t Got the Words,” “California Breakdown,” and “5×5” sounded lively and crisp, so much better in person.”
