Anberlin They rose out of the Christian-music ghetto to become a mainstay on the Vans Warped Tour, release a host of Billboard Top 20 albums, and give us our rock-’n’-roll fix with hits like “Feel Good Drag,” but now Anberlin is going out on a high note. On the heels of the release of its raucous, chaotic final album Lowborn-which landed at #11 on Billboard’s Top 200, and which plays like a musical chronology of the genres and tones that defined every step of its career path-the band is currently in the midst of its final tour. Anberlin will call it quits at the end of the year, but not before rocking your socks off one last time. With The Weather. All ages.

Banks When Banks debuted the title track from her latest album, Goddess, earlier this year, she stressed her intentions for it. “It’s so important for women to embrace themselves and feel like goddesses,” she said. “Because every woman is a fucking goddess.” Lyrically her album is rooted in post-Beyonce feminism, with sleek, underground electronic production. Banks’ soulful and wistful voice moves calmly over downbeat rhythms, but has a backbone with lyrics like “She gave it all, you gave her shit.” There’s tenacity behind her Aaliyah-inspired vocals. With Movement. All ages. DH The Showbox, 1426 First Ave., Seattle, WA 98101 $20 adv./$23 DOS Tuesday, October 14, 2014, 9pm

King Tuff CD REVIEW: King Tuff, Black Moon Spell (Sept. 23, Sub Pop, kingtuffworld.com) Magic, mystery, love: King Tuff, aka Kyle Thomas, handles it all on his third full-length. Titles like “I Love You Ugly” and “Demon From Hell” may seem a bit harsh, but Tuff’s lyrics, sung in a slightly whiny, love-it-or-hate-it voice, are often more sweet than sour. And a heavy dose of psychedelic shimmer (like that of Portugal. The Man) and garage-rock riffs add to the album’s brightness. “Sick Mind,” for example, is so full of peppy vocal harmonies that the condition seems appealing. Several songs barely pass the one-minute mark, but these mini-tunes don’t seem like throwaway tracks. Rather, they add quick bursts of energy to an already spirited album. AZARIA C.
