Heads Up: Built to Spill Plays Perfect From Now On

While their live shows the past few years have oscillated between sublime hit and disappointing miss, there's no denying the impressiveness of Built To Spill's back catalog. Central to their discography is 1997's Perfect From Now On, their major label (Warner Bros.) debut, and an album we listened to *a lot* in college. With its noodly, hypnotic guitar epics, catchy anti-pop melodies, and downright biting lyrics, Perfect From Now On was destined to be a classic, and now the elder statesman of Pacific Northwest indie rock are doin' it live.

After originally announcing they'd perform the eight-song, fifty-five-minute LP at All Tomorrow's Parties, BTS has scheduled a full-blown album-in-its-entirety tour. Doug Martsch and Co. make their way to the Showbox Thursday, September 4th. Tickets ($25) to the 21+ show formally go on sale Friday at 10 a.m., but the internet presale runs all day tomorrow (10 a.m.-10 p.m.) with the password "showbox."
