It’s gonna be a loud and black Friday at the Ten Eleven. Current contributor James Woodard and his quartet create huge, instrumental textures of doom with the infrastructure of gear nerds and the aesthetic sense of metal kids with a penchant for art music. Trying to piece out the individual instruments from the No Wave assault of Filthy is like a sommelier bullshitting his way through an unreadable wine: mostly guesswork and largely beside the point. Filthy’s music is to be heard as a whole, their huge roaring efforts coming in like the king tide. In a sense it’s “loud-fi” music, a turned-up aesthetic that can’t work any other way. On their debut Ant EP, Ants pound through six tracks of angular noise rock. With Selfies. $5, 9pm, The Ten Eleven, 1011 Avenue B, (210) 320-9080
