Avant-garde nuclear metal band Novelists are coming to Yuyintang next Wednesday. While distinctly hardcore, what differentiates them are their emo-esque, darker-side-of-Warped-Tour vocals and cascading guitar riffs. For those that sported serious bangs and wrist bands in high school, take note.
Sep 5, 9pm, RMB160. Yuyintang, see event listing.
Sep 6: TOPS

Canadian indie-pop dream, TOPS' upbeat, lo-fi sound capture summer at its finest with airy chords and twangy guitars. The're good friends with Mac Demarco, and one listen tells you why - they're both on a mission to make retro relevant, and they're killing it.
Sep 6, 8.30pm, RMB120. Yuyintang Park, see event listing.
