Good Bands, Really

Even purists who scoff at She Wants Revenge for being a poor man’s Interpol should plunk down $20 for the SWR-headlined Nylon Magazine Music Tour tonight at the Beaumont Club (4050 Pennsylvania, 816-561-2560). The rest of the lineup — the Virgins, the Switches and Be Your Own Pet — is so rock-solid that one could walk out before the final act and still get her money’s worth. Best bang for your buck: BYOP. With its firecracker frontwoman, chaotic garage sound and ferocious party songs, the Nashville it-band is punk as fuck.
