This week’s list of recommended shows is metal heavy, ranging from the melodic metal styling of Amanda Lepre, to the face-melting thrash of Iron Age and the rock infused Dixie Witch and Superheavygoatass. We also have some great touring roadshows coming through this week in Wilco and ZZ Top.

My pick of the week goes to The Story Of, who are playing a 101X Homegrown Live showcase at Emo’s on Wednesday. The show is only $1 to get in. That’s a hell of a deal to see The Story Of, who are Austin’s next big thing, in my humble opinion.
