The Locust could give you a seizure. The San Diego outfit’s experimental punk/metal ditties sound more like musical fits, thanks to insane time signatures and high-pitched, sporadically shouted vocals, all care of a quartet sporting matching military-meets-insect attire. Prepare to get your spaz on. Poison the Well, Dance Gavin Dance and A Girl A Gun A Ghost are also on the bill. 7 p.m. Warehouse Live, 813 St. Emanuel Street. For information, call 713–225-5483 or visit www.warehouselive.com. $13.
