Tonight pop rock sensation OneRepublic will be headlining a bill of relatively mediocre acts at the Palladium in Hollywood. If you're looking for the bizarre, then the El Rey is playing host to beats (experimental electro group Gang Gang Dance) and frenetic guitar playing (Marnie Stern). Speaking of slaying guitars, stoner metal is apparently still very much alive and kicking. Head over to Spaceland for some serious headbanging with Miami-based Torche. And Mexico's own Kinky will be stopping through Club Nokia. But we suggest heading over to McCabe's to see Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson.

I was first introduced to The Knux on a late Monday night back in June 2007. Instead of staying at home and resting up for the next work day, I decided to take Interscope up on their invitation to check out the latest addition to their roster perform at the Viper Room. That was a brilliant decision. As I said in my review of their show, "the hours of shut eye lost were worth the chance to have my eyes open to something new and fresh from a genre of music that has been putting me to sleep."
