Electronic indie rock duo Revolution, I Love You have went on an ambitious journey of mastering, fine tuning, and crowdsourcing their pinnacle EP Atlantic Ocean, which is set to officially drop early next year. The adventures have included them filming a DIY music video, doing their first album in five years to feature guitar solos, launching a Kickstarter campaign for additional album funding, and previewing the album through promising singles like “A Sound That Rattles All Our Hearts At Once.” As the band nears the final stop of the journey, they have much to celebrate, and that’s what they’ll be doing tonight at North Star Bar with a release party for their latest single. And they’ll be joined by friends City Rain, who are getting ready to release a new song of their own, W.C. Lindsay, and Your Ghost. North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St., 9pm, $8, All Ages – Bill McThrill
