APTBS takes the best of Eighties post-punk – specifically Joy Division, Sonic Youth, and the more lysergic end of the U.K. psych boom – and pulls it through your brain like an electric squeegee. The band’s latest LP Worship tones down the scree a tad, but the stage will be a different story. Expect an explosion of aggressive mantras at cochlea-pounding volume. – Michael Toland
