SUMMARY:Deterioration\, Czarbles\, Mellow Harsher\, Ferity at Mickey's Tavern
DESCRIPTION:Czarbles has been a homegrown treasure since releasing its self-titled debut album in 2006\, and this will be the trio’s first show since 2020. Guitarist Mark Sauer\, drummer Jeff Sauer\, and bassist Matt Skemp play instrumental rock of almost maddening complexity\, but they’ve dwelt so long in the minutiae of odd time signatures and contorted phrasings that the music becomes catchy\, flexible\, mischievous\, compact\, and improbably approachable. Speaking of compact\, Czarbles’ most recent album\, 2015’s Nausea Trois\, clocks in at just over 12 minutes. Stoughton’s Mellow Harsher\, playing here to celebrate drummer Goatlord’s birthday\, has achieved something of a legendary status for its delightfully punishing grindcore. Madison hardcore band Ferity and Minneapolis grindcore outfit Deterioration further enhance this evening of heavy menace. —Scott Gordon \nNausea Trois by Czarbles

SUMMARY:Good Corners\, Jonathon Millionaire at Dark Horse ArtBar
DESCRIPTION:Lawrence Gann played drums for the sparkling\, dry-witted Madison band Labrador\, but lately he’s shifted his attention to a solo project called Jonathon Millionaire. Gann’s husky voice (somewhere in the neighborhood of Jawbreaker’s Blake Schwarzenbach\, but less grizzled) gives his songs a downtrodden heft on the album Unlimited Growth Potential\, forming a sharp contrast with the bright layers of guitar and driving\, almost playful drums and bass. Gann refines that approach further on a recent single\, “Chrysalis\,” a song that captures the feeling of being stuck in place but still offers hope for what’s ahead. For this show\, the live version of Jonathon Millionaire will be Gann on guitar and vocals\, Ben Strohbeen on bass\, and Craig Hoffmann on drums. Opening things up is Good Corners\, the duo of John Hitchcock and Ryan Lansing\, which uses pedal steel\, synths\, and eerie samples to create entrancing landscapes of spacey twang. This show also celebrates the opening of Pushed To Abstraction\, a group art show of work from Hitchcock\, Samie Laine Scott\, Jason Levy\, and Evan Bradbury. —Scott Gordon\nChrysalis by Jonathon Millionaire

SUMMARY:Rooftop Cinema: The American Sector at Madison Museum of Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:Rooftop Cinema returns to the sculpture garden atop MMoCA on State Street for a 17th season\, now on Thursday nights in August. The outdoor series\, which has showcased everything from experimental animation to concert films to offbeat narratives\, now shifts its thematic lens towards a four-film slate of personal documentaries. Courtney Stephens and Pacho Velez’s The American Sector (2020) kicks off Rooftop’s 2022 programming here. The succinct 70-minute film is a fusion of travelogue\, political documentary\, and art appreciation\, as the co-directors capture sections of the Berlin Wall that have been reappropriated and displayed in over 75 locations across the United States\, from Fort Benning to Vegas. Based on Velez’s prior work with slow cinema ethnographic fiction Manakamana (a 2014 Wisconsin Film Festival selection)\, expect a distinctive eye for detail and resonant commentary on American values. —Grant Phipps

SUMMARY:Drunken Master and Police Story 2 at UW Cinematheque
DESCRIPTION:Emerging from a mid-1970s sea of Bruce Lee imitators\, Jackie Chan quickly established himself as a singular talent\, directing his own films and leading a highly disciplined stunt team. Infusing the martial arts genre with his Chinese opera training and a willingness to put himself in physical danger\, Chan stood out as an innovator.\n\n \n\nLoosely based on a Chinese folk hero\, Drunken Master is one of the first films that let Chan’s goofy underdog persona shine. Creating new fighting styles for each of his films\, director Yuen Siu-Tin opted for entertainment value over realism\, creating the perfect showcase for Chan’s agility and comic mugging.\n\n \n\nPolice Story 2 shows a refinement of Jackie Chan’s personal style\, creating a vehicle perfectly tailored to his physical skills and underdog persona. Though he wisely didn’t try to top the first film’s death-defying finale\, Police Story 2 has plenty of incredibly dangerous stunts and intricate fight choreography. —Ian Adcock

SUMMARY:Lovely Socialite at Café Coda
DESCRIPTION:While the members of the groovy Madison-born jazz-rock sextet Lovely Socialite are now split between a few Midwestern cities\, they congregate again here for a spirited release show for a new LP\, The Drift\, the band’s first in over six years. It follows on the heels of a trio of Lovely Socialites series of Quarantine Loops EPs\, sourced from remotely produced experiments and collaborations with electronic artists including John Praw and Chants. This Café Coda show also marks the 10th anniversary celebration of the band’s self-released debut\, the punny Registers Her Delight. \nAcross nine complex compositions by most of the band’s members—trombonist Corey Murphy\, bassist Ben Willis\, cellist and guitarist Pat Reinholz\, and cellist and pipa player Brian Grimm—The Drift dabbles in more overt spiritual jazz influences while holding onto the familiar sonic allusions to Jaga Jazzist and Sleep Dirt-era Zappa. And it results in Lovely Socialite’s most lavishly crafted and thrillingly cinematic work to date. \nTake the innovative interplay of Mike Koszewski’s hip-hop-flavored percussion with Abe Sorber’s lithe vibraphone\, Grimm’s pipa\, and Murphy’s trombone on the former half of “Top Secret Jazz\,” a sleuthy-sounding theme for a cartoon noir\, which accelerates and tumbles into the bass-heavy sounds of a foot chase by its end. The prior piece\, “Wrapped In Tentacles\,” is a cello-led nautical anthem for a sinking ship\, or one in mutant octopi peril of the high seas\, and it’s maybe the closest thing the band’s ever written to Rock In Opposition\, like a spiritual successor to Henry Cow’s Western Culture. \nBut one thing hasn’t changed\, and that’s Lovely Socialite generously serving up some of the most memorable instrumental tunes in the oddest time signatures. —Grant Phipps

SUMMARY:Pola X at UW Cinematheque
DESCRIPTION:Excerpt from Grant Phipps’ review: “For his fourth feature\, Pola X (1999)\, Carax transmutates Melville’s subversive 1852 novel Pierre: Or\, The Ambiguities with the sort of verve one would expect of the same iconoclastic mind who enraptured audiences with delirious romances—sister films\, even—Mauvais Sang (1986) and Lovers On The Bridge (1991). Using Melville’s template\, Carax applies the same charged style to a tale of a family in the dual process of fraying and coupling\, of incestuous dreams manifest\, offering a portrait of the artist as an ageless man. Initial search results and impressions of Pola X are likely to lump it in with what Artforum critic James Quandt coined as the “New French Extremity” movement for one particularly murky sexual encounter. Yet Carax’s approach is far from extreme\, savoring the smoldering intrigue of the subconscious framed between fits of panicked disillusionment from protagonist Pierre Valombreuse (the late Guillaume Depardieu).”
