Our Pick: Minus the Bear, Everest, Young the Giant @ Mayan Theater
Tonight Bristol-based electronic duo Massive Attack will be concluding a three-night stint at the Wiltern. Swedish indie rockers Shout Out Louds are poised to kick off a two-night stint at the El Rey Theatre with none other than Queens' own indie pop buzz band Freelance Whales. And, lastly, local indie rockers Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, who released their debut almost a year ago to the date, will be making a brief appearance at UCLA's Royce Hall prior to heading back out and conquering the world by tour. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Mayan Theatre in Downtown to catch Seattle's own experimental rockers Minus the Bear, who ringing in their latest effort—2010's OMNI. LAist favorites, local alt-rock outfit Everest (LAist Review, #2), who recently released a brand-new full-length record as well, are slated to kick things off.
