(MUSIC) Sometimes it just feels good to fucking scream, and Seattle's the Assailant know this like no other. Guttural growling, pounding hardcore, and wailing metal guitar is all packed into 45-second songs that will leave your skin covered in heat blisters. Philadelphia outfit An Albatross add a little shake to the earthquake by throwing in some undeniably stellar synth to go with their bratty vocals. By the end of this show you'll be absolutely exhausted, but you'll feel a hell of a lot better. (The Paradox, 1401 NW Leary Way, www.theparadox.org. 7:30 pm, $7, all ages.) by Megan Seling
