Motion City Soundtrack
Fri. Nov. 23
The Rave, 7 p.m.
Motion City Soundtrack’s new Even If It Kills Me aims squarely for the radio—and
sure enough, it has charted impressively—but that shouldn’t dissuade jaded Weezer
fans who would normally avoid Motion City Soundtrack’s youth-skewing style of poppunk
from checking out the album. There’s little of Fall Out Boy’s emo drama here,
just a ton of huge, poppy hooks in the spirit of Weezer’s blue album (it was even
recorded in part with Ric Ocasek, The Cars frontman who produced Weezer’s beloved
debut). Opening: Anberlin, Mae and Metro Station.
