Win Tickets: Gang Gang Dance @ Holocene | Pan Cultural Body Music (Oct. 13, $30)
Gang Gang Dance started as free-form noiseniks; over the years, they've managed to mellow out without moving to the center- evolving into purveyors of pan-cultural body-music, marrying club beats with lyrics about communing with the dead. To win, comment on this post here.

Win Tickets: St. Vincent w/ Cate Le Bon @ Crystal Ballroom | Baroque Guitar Rock (Oct. 14, $30)
Strange Mercy is an album built around that idea, an unsparing examination of both telling and grappling with the truth, cloaked in some of the most sublime music of St. Vincent's aka Annie Clark's career. Strange Mercy features very little of the baroque strings, woodwinds, and reeds that marked Clark's last album Actor, and the grooves are sturdy, deep and beguiling.
