Aggressive dissonance nears reckless abandon between crashing cymbals and shouts of “I hate it”, in Omar’s abruptly ending “Larry I Love Ya, But Ya Blew It”, exuding an anxious energy that hums throughout “Jumping Jacks” and the punk-esque chants of “Nism”. Matched with the driving riffs and urban landscapes of “Day 8 (Trampoline Only)”, Omar’s anthems play out fast and fun, finding a common ground between post-punk nostalgia and lo-fi fuzz. Headliners Slutever set to crank out signature brat-punk ballads are prone to heat things up like “Sun Hot” while the tongue-in-cheek nostalgia of “Seventh Grade” and apathetic charm of “No Offense” makes slam dancing seem appropriate. Far from falling out of fashion, both acts go down smooth with Brooklyn-based Easter Vomit. Slut it up at Kung Fu Necktie (come on, don’t be shy)! 1250 N. Front St., 7:30pm, $5, 21+ – Dianca Potts
