Harsh Vibe's single, "Magic Pentagram"--which, thanks to their win in our Featured Artist(s) Poll, they were able to polish off with free studio time--is everything the band name suggests. It's nearly four minutes of stoned melodies--of raging psych-noise and abandoned desert songs that burn like midnight beach bonfires and disappearing joints. On "Magic Pentagram," the local Fishtown five-piece gets loud, and that's what you should expect tonight at the North Star Bar, where they'll perform with New York's fuzzy psych-garage outfit, White Hills (Thrill Jockey), and Cali's slow-burning strutters Sleepy Sun (ATP). Ripped blue jeans and silkscreened band tees required. North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St., 8pm, $10, 21+ - Annamarya Scaccia
