Strange Boys tour with Mika Miko, Coathangers, more

If you're irrevocably, inexplicably anti-yelp, anti-swagger or anti-fuzz, then you shouldn't go to one of the many, many dates on the upcoming Strange Boys Summer tour.

But if you value some winsome overdrive in your life, you should pay heed toand give thanks forthe massive offering on hand from the boys in Austin's favorite garage-rock foursome. Besides, they'll be joined by Los Angeles noisemakers Mika Miko and Atlanta's squeelcore Coathangers. So what do you have to lose?
