Ted Leo, Deathfix

ROBERT HAM

9 pm., Saturday March 23 | $10.

Backspace
115 NW 5th Ave.

[PUNK EVOLUTION] There’s much to talk about with this show. For one, it is the return of Ted Leo, the punk- and reggae-inspired musician who arrives without his crack backing band, the Pharmacists, and soon after the formation of the duo #BOTH with fellow singer-songwriter Aimee Mann. This show also welcomes Deathfix to Portland for the first time. The new project from ex-Fugazi member Brendan Canty will force fans of Canty’s former band to make quite a mental adjustment, as in place of agitprop aggression, this outfit takes for a looser, glamm-ier approach that takes cues from influences such as Pere Ubu and This Heat.
