Tonight Portland's own experimental rock sextet Blitzen Trapper (LAist Interview) will be headlining the El Rey Theatre with none other than Baltimore-bred folk rock duo Wye Oak (LAist Interview) in tow. English psych-pop singer-songwriter Pop Levi (LAist Review) is poised to take on the Roxy with local experimental rock duo El Ten Eleven. And, lastly, LA-based alt-country troubadour Leslie and the Badgers will be closing out their residency at the Echo with local lo-fi pop act Best Coast. But we strongly suggest heading over to Spaceland to catch the final night of local indie rock outfit Saint Motel's (LAist Interview) month-long residency. LAist favorites, Burbank-based experimental psych folk outfit Gangi (LAist Review) and Silver Lake-based indie rockers Links are slated to perform as well.

Tonight San Franciscan folk rockers Vetiver will be taking on a two-night stint at the Center for the Arts in Eagle Rock with none other than Oregon-based singer-songwriter Richard Swift. London-based electro-pop duo La Roux are slated to headline the Roxy with LAist favorite, local instrumental duo El Ten Eleven. And, lastly, around mid-day LA-based country troubadour Mike Stinson will be gracing Redwood Bar & Grill. But we strongly suggest trekking all the way out to the Glass House to catch local buzz band Silversun Pickups, who are poised to release their forthcoming sophomore effort Swoon this coming Tuesday.

Tonight legendary country singer-songwriter Merle Haggard will be performing at the Grove of Anaheim. Prolific punk rockers NOFX are slated to headline a sold-out show at the Henry Fonda Music Box. Bluegrass troubadours Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings will be jamming together at Largo at the Coronet. OC-based pop punk outfit Circa Survive are poised to play to a sold-out crowd at the Troubadour. Echo Park's own indie rockers Iglu & Hartly will be coming through the Viper Room. And, lastly, D.C.-bred indie rockers Jukebox the Ghost will be joined by the Voyeurs at Three Clubs in Hollyweird. But we strongly suggest that you head over to the Hotel Café to catch local experimental instrumental duo El Ten Eleven.

Tonight Northampton-bred power pop act Fountains of Wayne (LAist Interview) will be concluding their two-night acoustic stint at Largo at the Coronet. Montreal-based electro pop duo Chromeo (LAist Review) are poised to play to a sold-out show at the Keyclub, just before heading into the studio. We're also just getting word that Chromeo has been added to the Love Grenades' show at the Roxy with Sam Sparro. And speaking of duos, experimental two-man band El Ten Eleven will be playing at the Silver Lake Lounge with Creedle, which features Pinback front man Rob Crow. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Echo to catch the final duo we'll speak of, Brooklyn's own experimental rockers High Places. LA locals Hecuba are slated to open to the show.

6 pm // Club Nokia // 800 West Olympic Blvd. Suite A335, Los Angeles // $35 - $50

Tonight LA has its fair share of shows. Club Nokia in Downtown will play host to Chrissie Hynde and the Pretenders, who will be accompanied by prominent indie rockers like Bloc Party (LAist Review, #2), CSS and Black Kids. LA locals Obi Best (LAist Review), a pop songstress who sings back-up vocals for the Bird and the Bee, and El Ten Eleven (LAist Review), a purely instrumental duo, are slated to perform at the Hotel Café. NY-based shoegazers Longwave will be rocking out at the Troubadour, ushering in their first record in over three years. And, lastly, electronic mastermind Daedelus is headlining the 10th Beat Invitational at the Airliner. But we strongly suggest seeing English psych-pop singer-songwriter Pop Levi (LAist Review), who will be sauntering onstage with bravado at Spaceland.

It's Monday and that means the lion's share of shows are free residencies. Fresno-based Rademacher will continue to rock over at the Echo. And LA-based new wave outfit Manhattan Murder Mystery will continue to croon at Mr T's Bowl. But we wholeheartedly suggest checking out Kenan Bell's Monday Night Residency at Spaceland. Our favorite two-man instrumental band El Ten Eleven, who are best known for the seldom-used guitar/bass doubleneck, will be opening up the show with wailing notes and disco beats.

THURSDAY

Cine-Space is by far one of the most impressive music venues in town. Combining a unique mix of visual effects with stellar live performances, it's worthy of investigation. Two shows are scheduled for October. Stay tuned to LAist for full details. In the meantime, take in the sights.

Tuesday is the biggest day of the week for audiophiles. We're like kids in
a candy store. In the spirit of that dizzy euphoria, we're launching our weekly
guide to what's hot and what's not. Since LAist is an online entity, our primary
focus on Tuesdays will be digital downloads. Why? We think digital is the
future of music. For instance, Warner Music recently announced plans for a
digital label, dubbed Cordless; Apple, Cingular and Motorola teamed
up to make ROKR; and iTunes now
offers digital liner notes for many of the albums in its catalogue. If video
killed the radio star, then digital music is the successor to the aging MTV.


What's Hot:

The best-selling digital singles this week were Kanye
West's Gold
Digger,
Fall Out Boy's Sugar,
We're Goin' Down, Black Eyed Peas' My
Humps,
Missy Elliot's Lose
Control and Green Day's Wake
Me Up When September Ends.*


Online Exclusives:

Over at iTunes, you can pre-order Fiona
Apple's long-awaited Extraordinary
Machine, Sheryl Crow's Wildflower, Franz
Ferdinand's You
Could Have It So Much Better, and Depeche
Mode's Playing
The Angel. If you purchase the Depeche Mode album, you're also
eligible for an exclusive pre-sale for their forthcoming tour.


What's New:

• Blonde from Fargo released Only in It for the Blondes.
• Valentin Ceja released Valentin Ceja y Su Rock 'N' Banda.
• George Clinton released Best of George Clinton Live.
