Is that a bonfire in your solar plexus or just the burning desire for a good post-hardcore pummeling? Whatever it is, best grab your vitals and hang on for dear life, because indie spastics Les Savy Fav are here to light up a frenzied flambé of art-school pop. The band's Fugazi-gone-giddy tunes are shored up by the infamous antics of husky, tummy-bearing frontman Tim Harrington, who has been known to demand audience karaoke and steal equipment from the stage. Less maniacal, but still inspirational, are the folk/blues experiments of San Francisco's the Dodos or the warm ambient tones of We Barbarians.
