Odd Future

Fri., Dec. 7, 9pm

Emo’s East/Red 7

Lost in the riots and recklessness now synonymous with the Odd Future party bus is the degree to which Tyler, the Creator and his Cali cronies held hip-hop in a death grip in 2010, releasing a string of mixtapes that shook the industry and ushered in a new era of juvenile shock rap. This spring’s OF Tape Vol. 2 lacks the luster of Tyler’s “French!” or Earl Sweatshirt’s “Luper,” but it’s still enough to elicit wide-eyed amazement. Across the river, punk thrashers and OF labelmates Trash Talk blow out the speaker box via October’s 119. – Chase Hoffberger
