Austin's Strange Boys play the Earl tonight

Austin, Texas, garage-punk quartet the Strange Boys craft a primitive, lo-fi rock and roll sound that's both dirty and addictive. At its most predictable moments, the group comes across like a Lone Star state little brother to the Black Lips. But when they're on, they're on. Their In the Red Records debut, The Strange Boys and Girls Club, unleashes a psychedelic post-punk jam that's part Texas psychedelia and part slow, Southern post-punk. Carnivores and the N.E.C. also perform.

$8. 8:30 p.m. The Earl, 488 Flat Shoals Ave. 404-522-3950. www.badearl.com.
