Hide your children because the nasty, evil psych-garage rock of Lantern is back, and the trio will be headlining tonight at Kung Fu Necktie. They recently wrapped up work with producer extraordinaire Jeff Zeigler at Uniform Recording finishing up their first full-length album, and this evening will be the kick-off to a string of shows that will conclude in leading shredder Zachary Fairbrother’s former hometown of Montreal, Canada. (You can check out deets for the dates as well as stay abreast of the new release by hitting up their Tumblr and/or Facebook.) They will also have new drummer in tow. Lantern will be joined this evening by Dong Johnson (consisting of members who perform with Blood Feathers, Ted Leo and The Apostles) and Streetwalkers (who just returned from shows with The Men). Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $8, 21+ – Q.D. Tran
