Vancouver’s returning indie rock conquerors Japandroids take a victory lap around the Biltmore July 7, 8 p.m. in support of the duo’s latest release, Celebration Rock, which, in our humble opinion, is a gloriously ragged and spirited affair with a near perfect fuzz-to-yelp ratio. Tickets at Red Cat, Zulu, the Biltmore, the River Vintage, Mintage or online at ticketweb.ca.

Ooooooh, architecture porn, our favourite. A hit at this year’s DOXA documentary festival, Gavin Froome and Mike Bernard’s Coast Modern explores West Coast modernist architecture from Los Angeles to Vancouver, and the stylish peeps who made it all happen. We can practically smell the mid-century teak furniture from here. The ogling begins July 6 to 12 at Vancity Theatre. For more info and show times, go to viff.org.
Vancity Theatre screens Vancouver filmmaker Panos Cosmatos’s Beyond the Black Rainbow July 6 to 19. The film, about a woman held captive in an experimental clinic and set in a futuristic vision of 1983, is a creepy, at times hallucinogenic homage to sci-fi films of the 1970s, complete with hypnotic score composed on analog synthesizers by Jeremy Schmidt of Sinoia Caves and Black Mountain. For more information and show times, go to viff.org.
Taking its cue from its new exhibition Again and Again and Again: Serial Formats and Repetitive Actions, the Vancouver Art Gallery’s night of art, music and performance known as FUSE goes on and on and on July 6, 8:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Expect an evening of repetitive dance courtesy of Holy Body Tattoo’s Noam Gagnon and Light Box’s Lina Fitzner and Caroline Liffmann, experimental theatre from Boca Del Lupo and Theatre Replacement’s Maiko Bae Yamamoto, DJs, gallery tours and shadow puppets. You read correctly… shadow puppets. For tickets and information, go to vanartgallery.bc.ca.
