Void Vision, a.k.a. Shari Vari, celebrates the release of her latest record Sub Rosa (Mannequin Records) this evening at Kung Fu Necktie. The album has a persistent percussive synth base, which predatorily lurks, providing a drafty dangerous atmosphere. However, these ominous tones simultaneously cause a protective shot of adrenaline, letting you escape into back alley groove, while eluding caution in favor of experience. Tonight, The Bad Doctors will join them in their dark-wave endeavor; the group’s heart-thumping, dance-accelerating electro-post punk takes varying sonic turns, rocketing through a narrowing unlit street that has the potential to lead to an airy open field. The bill will also feature Morsberger brothers experimental noise outfit Drums Like Machine Guns and the NYC-based synth-pop of YOU (whom are also on Blind Prophet Records with Void Vision). Matthew Kosloff of Pissed Jeans, a.k.a. DJ BCBG, will get the ball rolling. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $10, 21+ – Michael Colavita
