It’s been nearly two years since the release of Speedy Ortiz’s 2013 full-length Major Arcana, an album awash in distorted guitars, quietly disturbing arrangements and more than enough soul-searching confessional lyrics. Every moment of the waiting period for its follow-up Foil Deer– which dropped in April and brings Speedy Ortiz back to town – has been Sadie Dupuis season, the 27-year-old frontwoman for the Massachusetts-based outfit proving to be one of the more refreshing voices in today’s modern indie rock scene.

Warm-up this tour around from Krill, a Boston-bred trio that has a dark, dissonant, angular alt rock sound with light math-y chord progressions and definite fuzzed-out ‘90s grunge appeal. Also performing: Tallahassee hardcore punk band Ex-Breathers, and Poster, from Lakeland, their breezy lo-fi sounds echo-laden, acoustic guitar-driven and pop-easy on the ears. 7 p.m., Crowbar, Ybor City, $11.
