From this week's Up & Coming concert listings:

Desolation Wilderness, Angelo Spencer, Bash Brothers, Generifus

(Comet) Olympia band Desolation Wilderness sound like the flat, starlit leg of a long summer road trip, windows down, warm night air blowing past, '60s pop reverberating from the dashboard radio. Maybe you're drifting in and out of a dream in the backseat. Their recent K Records release White Light Strobing is full of Dramamine-mellowed slow-dance serenades, slightly twangy guitars, brushed drums, keening vocals, and faint shimmers of keyboard all distant and faded. Fans of Galaxie 500, take note. Opening the show is Seattle solo artist Generifus, whose songs range from slow-core, head-hung-low mopes to dazed, wide-eyed ballads to surprisingly sunny, lo-fi pop.

Tyvek, Little Claw, Unnatural Helpers

(Funhouse) Detroit six-piece Tyvek (their MySpace renders it Tyvjk, perhaps for copyright reasons) shamble in the resurgent shit-fi wave of indie garage rock (see also: Times New Viking, Jay Reatard, Sic Alps, Psychedelic Horseshit). These bands—who make Guided by Voices sound like the Mars Volta—revel in crap fidelity; intense, rudimentary riffing; technically poor singing; and repetition, repetition, repetition. It sounds great as the dude next to you is puking out his PBR and hastily eaten burrito. Portland's Little Claw play strummy, spindly garage rock with endearing female vox and claim Gore Vidal as an influence, so they're quite all right. DAVE SEGAL
