Rosetta Homecoming at KFN Aug. 10

The originators of “metal for astronauts,” Rosetta, celebrate a triumphant return from China by playing one of their two remaining home shows for the year at Kung Fu Necktie tonight. Along with touring the Far East, they have become the subject of a full-length documentary film that has been successfully crowdsourced via Indiegogo, and are awaiting Translation Loss Records to release their new EP Flies to Flame, which features experimental studio pieces. So the show will be a precursor to many good things on the horizon, and a reunion with their Tucson, AZ friends, North. Rounding out the lineup will be the super-charged metal outfit, Maniacs on Wheels, and Torrential Downpour. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St, 6pm, $7 – Bill McThrill
