Between rising young bands like Texas’ Glare, New Jersey’s All Under Heaven and especially Orlando’s 0 Miles Per Hour, this is a new generation of shoegaze going beyond strict My Bloody Valentine constructionism by injecting alt-rock’s muscle and emotion into the thrilling squall.
Together, they’ll make a stellar lineup with swooning sonics that will swallow you whole.
6:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 24, Conduit, conduitfl.com, $15.
