Music: Rock/Pop Wolf Eyes w/ Prurient and Naked on the Vague

Wolf Eyes have earned quite a reputation for doomy antagonism. Well-meaning critics tend to exaggerate the Sub Pop band's "scary" and "face-melting" qualities — but, just as with their sonic forefathers Throbbing Gristle, there's a vein of Fluxus-style merry pranksterism running through the cacophony. (Check out the hilarious "breakdown" midway through their 2004 single "Stabbed in the Face.") Plus, all that whizzing synth skronk masks some (relatively) danceable rhythms — helping to make the trio one of the most prominent and accessible noise acts around. Your face may not actually melt, but it'll certainly have a big grin on it for a few hours.
