THE BOREDOMS Date and time: Tuesday, June 27 / 9 pm Location: Wexner Center’s Black Box on Mershon Stage. Standing-only event. Tickets: $18 all audiences

Japan’s Boredoms set the scene for supercharged cosmic drone rock in the late 1980s with their iconoclastic sound, inspiring such bands as Nirvana and Sonic Youth. The Boredoms wield metallic Krautrock noise, freeform jazz blasts, frenzied rhythms, acid-drenched trance tones, and anything else they can mischievously stir into the mix, that must be experienced live to be believed. This rare live show in the States promises to be a highlight of a Next @ Wex season that has already thrilled fans with the brash sonic experimentation of Wolf Eyes, Mogwai, Sunn O))), and Boris. For more information: www.boredoms.co.uk.

Also on June 27: a screening of Richard Linklater’s eagerly anticipated adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s A Scanner Darkly, starring Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder (tickets are $6 for the general public and $4 for Wexner Center members and students).

UPCOMING MUSIC EVENTS Other highlights in music coming this summer (tickets on sale June 19):

• Vetiver, among the leaders of the neofolk movement, bring its beguiling acoustic songs to the Performance Space on July 29.

• On August 3, Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra, a spin-off of Montreal collective godspeed you! black emperor, makes its Wexner Center debut with a set of its epic compositions. Black Ox Orkestar opens.
