Few DIY punk bands taste major-label fame; fewer still retain the qualities that got them there. On 2007's New Wave (Sire), Gainesville, Fla.'s Against Me! harnessed the warehouse-on-spin-cycle energy of its injurious live shows and charted a ballsy power-pop course for Tom Gabel's Sucrets-sponsored vocal tracheotomy. A follow-up, White Crosses, is due in June. Dead to Me and the Menzingers open. Tickets $15.
