You know how I often try to champion brainy music here? I just do it in the hope that it makes me look smart. Really, deep down, I just wanna fucking RAWK like everybody else.

Few bands right now feed that need quite like Canada’s The Dirty Nil. Their big, kicking rock combines 1970s bombast and 1990s punk edge into a stadium-sized sound.

Opening will be California punks Grumpster, Virginia alt-rockers House & Home and Orlando garage rockers Kyle & the 8-Minute Miles.

6 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 26, Conduit, $20.
