It’s hard to dislike Titus Andronicus (NJ)’s bombastic punk anthems. Their 2012 album The Monitor is something of a modern classic and they’re one of the most entertaining live bands around, with some of the friendliest pits you’ll ever come across. Joining them at the Mideast Upstairs are the equally anthemic and equally New Jerseyan Liquor Store, along with Wicked Kind and their crunchy garage-pop. Make sure to hug a stranger or two.
