Young Offenders (Thu., Oct. 22, 9 p.m., Eagle Tavern)
If bald ain’t exactly beautiful, it still packs a pretty potent wallop. Young Offenders win the Budget Rock Sore Thumb Award for being the least like the rest of the roster. Jabbing, skittering guitar; abrasive delivery; and amazing hooks make these guys the hands-down best punk band in the city. Think Wire meets the Marked Men, or even Elvis Costello via early Gang of Four.

Note: Tim is also our editor, and all around nice guy. GET OUT THERE!!
