Gliss w/Lady Fair/Mogul Street Reserve L.A.-based indie rock trio Gliss (pictured) have toured with Billy Corgan, The Ravonettes, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, to name a few, their sound morphing over the years from dark, atmospheric shoegaze to the more recent fuzzed-out psychedelic rock found on its April release, Devotion Implosion. The album is a strong sophomore effort marked by languid, hypnotizingly husky vocals, reverb- and distortion-saturated walls of sound, and the occasional amble into dream time. Saturday, April 25, 9 p.m., Crowbar, Ybor City, $7 (18 and up). —LP
