    May Day w/ Molly Ringworm, Tank Division, Leche

    Specializing in small, smaller, and teeny tiny presses, Alienated Majesty has proven itself to be one of Austin’s most vital bookstores. For May Day, look for 30% off in the Politics and History section and an evening of loud, fast music via Leche’s no-fi hardcore, Molly Ringworm’s throat-ripping d-beat, and Tank Division’s straight-edge rage, along with zine readings between sets. Doors at 6pm. A $10 suggested donation goes to the bands. – Joe Gross
    Thu., May 1, 7pm. $10 cover (all ages).

Delight in hypnotic synths to guide you through the enchanted forest, indie pop for practicing your tavern jig, and thrashing metal to soundtrack your duels. Escape our mortal coil for one of war and whimsy at Tiny Minotaur and Elysium. – Caroline Drew

    Almost Famous - A Soundtrack Party w/ Important Group (Guardians of the Galaxy tribute), Daphne Tunes & Friends (The Royal Tenenbaums tribute), SKATELAND (Top Gun tribute)

    It’s movie night at Hotel Vegas! Set up for a triple feature – or, really, three 30-minute sets – of local bands’ takes on film soundtracks. Skateland’s bedroom pop sensibilities set him up to tackle the Eighties glitz of the Top Gun (think Berlin, but also Kenny Loggins). Daphne Tunes has an embarrassment of riches with Royal Tenenbaums: Nico, Elliott Smith, and the Ramones make appearances, alongside earworm film originals from the GOAT Mark Mothersbaugh that they could apply their sunny, melodic guitar work to. Important Group, featuring some friends from Being Dead, take on the Seventies rock of Guardians of the Galaxy, with the chance to interpret both Redbone and David Bowie. Get your popcorn ready. – Abby Johnston
    Thu., May 1, 7:30pm. $15 cover (21+).
