PAULA NELSON, SHANE BRIDGES Yeah, she's Willie's daughter, and her thing is very typical Texas country-blues. The girl can sing, but we've heard most of this before. If you dig the blues, be there. Macon's Americana guy Shane Bridges opens. $6, 8PM. Smith's Olde Bar. 404-875-1522. www.smithsoldebar.com. -- James Kelly
GRAILS Portland, Ore.'s purveyors of avant-garde metal return in support of their darkest and dirtiest offering yet, Doomsdayer's Holiday. The latest release details epic, instrumental riffage and atmospheres that find sludgy, metal drums intertwining with washes of Middle Eastern textures and a white-hot tussle between harmony and distortion. For their Fri. Nov. 14th show, electronic music pioneers the Silver Apples surf the sine waves, carving out deep, psychedelic grooves. Led by the mysterious Simeon Coxe III, Silver Apples craft songs that are as addictive today as they were when the group emerged from the New York art-rock scene circa 1967. Athens' instrumental math rockers A.Armada open. $10. 9 p.m. Drunken Unicorn, 736 Ponce de Leon Place. www.thedrunkenunicorn.net. -- Chad Radford
