Our Pick: Heartless Bastards, Maxim Ludwig @ Spaceland
Tonight British industrial pioneers Throbbing Gristle will be performing the score for Derek Jarman's hourlong film In the Shadow Of the Sun at Ricardo Montalban Theatre. British alternative rockers the Boxer Rebellion are poised to headline the Troubadour. And, lastly, LA-based retro soul maestros Mayer Hawthorne & the County will be gracing the Echo. But we strongly suggest heading over to Spaceland to catch Cincinnati's own garage rock trio Heartless Bastards (LAist Interview).
