20. Memento (Limited Edition)Posing as the medical file of the protagonist, including pages of a police report, the packaging captures the flavor of the backwards-running thriller without being as confusing.

[Thursday, October 16] Like every region of the country, Seattle hip hop has its own distinct flavor. Generally lo-fi and quasi- intellectual, Emerald City rappers emit a quality that makes them easily discernible form their Southern, East Coast or Cali brethren. Which is why I think the Seattle-based Mad Rad crew is so special. Their sound, which is basically creditable ghetto tech, or hip hop for club kids, is so fresh you'd expect it to be bumpin' out of London or New York, not good ol' Ballard. With Ludachrist, DJs Hanibal, Jizosh, Swank, OK Dave. Chop Suey, 1325 E. Madison St., 324-8000. 9 p.m., $15 adv. All ages. Listen to My Product.
