With Tarantula A.D. and Stars of Track and Field, you won’t need to double-fist the winter ale to get a buzz at this show. Crocodile Cafe, 9 p.m. $8Na (CD release) + Simon PooleIt makes sense, within this context, that the three Japanese ex-pat noise experimenters in Na are releasing their first album, called B-Sides, before their first album, which isn’t called A-Sides but Naisnice. They are also simultaneously releasing Radio Sessions, which includes selections from live performances.

Sunset Tavern, 9 p.m. $7Jane SiberryIn 1995, Canadian singer Siberry’s ethereal “It Can’t Rain All the Time” found a place between Helmet and the Cure on the soundtrack to the Crow—a testament to the versatility of her sophisticated lyrics and atmospheres. Triple Door, 8 p.m. $28.50 adv./$31Long Winters + Slender Means + Ghost StoriesThe locally beloved indie rockers don’t do much for us, but maybe that’ll change with repeated exposure to the new Ultimatum EP (Barsuk). Slender Means and Ghost Stories open. Crocodile Cafe, 9 p.m. $12Super Furry Animals + CaribouIt’s not often that you can see two of the most overrated acts in their separate-but-not-really fields in one place, but Welsh indie rockers SFA and Canadian indie-electronic-guy Caribou sharing the bill make it possible tonight.

Funhouse, 9:30 p.m. $5DonovanThough a box set is really stretching it (dude’s catalog isn’t nearly that robust), Donovan is still an ace guitarist with a quietly appealing voice, and he does have a decent-enough catalog if hippie-dippy is your thing. For us, sometimes, it totally is. Moore Theatre, 8 p.m. $36–$41Eleven EyesStraight outta Eugene, Eleven Eyes really, really, really want to make you dance—through free jazz that bumps and grinds with hip-hop turntablism and live breakbeats. Mama’s Cookin’ headline the party. ToST, 9 p.m. $6The Emergency + Iceage Cobra + Dateless + Jimmy Flame and the SexXxy BoysNot one of those shows where you want to be “fashionably late” (because you were at home watching sitcoms instead of opening acts), this one is all kinds of rockin’. A solid bill. High Dive, 10 p.m. $6The Lovemakers + She Wants Revenge + Rock Kills KidDoesn’t the new generation of buzz bands seem dull? That’s the case even when they’re pretty good, like Rock Kills Kid. Mostly they’re sort of whatever like the Lovemakers. And sometimes they’re downright abominable—see She Wants Revenge. Crocodile Cafe, 7:30 p.m. $10 adv./$12YellowcardA small-town Florida pop-punk band made really, really good—particularly with the MTV-approved hit “Only One”—expect loads of screaming tweens at this early show with Acceptance and Reeve Oliver. Neumo’s, 6 p.m. $20Monday, November 28Si*SeTouring for More Shine, the N.Y.C.–based band blends sexy Latin rhythms with electronic beats and live instrumentation for a sizzling live performance. The Fading Collection, Betherum Collective, and SunTzu Sound’s AC Lewis also play. Chop Suey, 8 p.m. $7Trans-Siberian OrchestraTrans-Siberian Orchestra is the brainchild of a former rock musician who wanted to write rock operas and then figured out what an awful oxymoron that was. But don’t expect Tommy. There might be occasional guitar riffs, but the general idea is to riff off of classical and opera. KeyArena, 305 E. Harrison St., 7:30 p.m. $29–$44Tuesday, November 29King’s XThe hard-rock veterans, led by bassist/singer Doug Pinnick, tour behind the new Ogre Tones (Enhanced). Fenix Underground, 9 p.m. $15Lyfe + Vivian Green + GoapeleLyfe 268-192 refers to the five-time Showtime at the Apollo winner’s former prison number, but the young songwriter’s music concerns the heart as well as the street. Neo-soul diva Vivian Green (a former backup singer for Jill Scott) and the sultry Goapele open the show. Showbox, 8 p.m. $25Trey AnastasioReviews are mixed on the Phish co-founder’s solo debut, Shine—which along with being called a “midlife crisis” by one reviewer—is damaged by Sony, whose copy protection software infiltrates the hard drive of each well-meaning hippie with an iPod.
