Super fuzzed-out garage-goth noise-makers Far-Out Fangtooth will be bringing their psychedelic doom and gloom to the basement of the First Unitarian Church tonight. The four-piece delivered an impressive LP last year via Siltbreeze Records, which earned them The Deli Philly’s October Album of the Month honors, and their 2012 EP The Thorns, which was recorded by Moon Women’s Justin Pittney and released by HoZac Records, is proving to be a sleeper favorite of mine with each listen. Get your fix this evening when Far-Out Fangtooth open for Phil Elverum’s Mount Eerie who will be in full band mode. First Unitarian Church, 2125 Chestnut St., 8pm, $12, All Ages – Alexis V.

Do you love sex? Do you love synths? Do you love sexy synths? Well, the guys from Night Panther are ready to team up and give you what you love. The group features members of White Birds/ex-Drink Up Buttercup, and will be sweeping you off your feet with their “Colt 45” jams. Because “it works every time” – aww yeah. Check out and download their latest offering below, which is a cover of Grizzly Bear’s “Two Weeks.” They’ll be opening for Not Not Fun seductress Maria Minerva tonight at Kung Fu Necktie. Some panties will be dropping this evening so have fun and wrap it up. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 7:30pm, $10, 21+ – H.M. Kauffman

Today, North Bowl hosts the 7th annual The Dude Hates Cancer bowling tournament, an event aimed at raising awareness and financial support for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Teams of six to ten people contribute a flat rate of $280 for three hours of bowling, in one of three waves beginning at 11:30am, 2:30pm, and 5:30pm respectively. The deal includes free shoe rental, a free participation t-shirt, a chance to win prizes and free admission into Jack Treehorn’s afterparty at Johnny Brenda’s. Last year’s event raised $83,000, and they plan to kick its ass in typical dude fashion upping the bar to $100,000.

The afterparty includes a triple threat – the cool, eclectic grooves of Orbit to Leslie, the psychedelic get-down pop-rock of Cheers Elephant, and the funkalicious sounds of Swift Technique closing the night out. Grab a white Russian, and let the party begin. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave, 9pm, $10, 21+ – Michael Colavita

Come get weird tonight with Norwegian Arms and Laser Background at Dreamcastle in South Philly as they begin their Philly house show residency experiment. The guys sent us an email at the end of August announcing their plans to tour our city’s various house venues from mid-September to mid-October. The message also included a set of rules that the members of each band must adhere to during the tour (including living at each house for at least two days). You can check out the note with the complete list of rules and tour dates HERE.

Norwegian Arms posted this status on their Facebook the other night which perfectly sums up our feelings of why their house show tour is important for the city’s underground music scene and why you should go out and support the artists and houses involved. “I think the best thing about this House show residency is that not only does it allow me to play in four hardworking house venues in this city, but it also raises people’s awareness of spaces like there, where people allow folks to enter into their homes and share in a common cultural experience. We’ve also chosen them because they reflect different neighborhoods.” They’ll also be joined this evening by buddies The Circadian Rhythms and Jon Pfeffer (from Capillary Action). Dreamcastle, (Please contact one of the acts or the venue for more deets.), 8pm, $1 – $5 (sliding scale), All Ages, BYO-fun things – Dan Brightcliffe
