Fake Problems

Fake Problems’ 2009 release, It’s Great To Be Alive, was the sound of a young band unleashed in a recording studio to do whatever it wanted, and the result was a winning-if-overstuffed batch of highly orchestrated, and orchestral, indie-rock from the Florida quartet. For the follow-up, Fake Problems wanted to strip things down, and the resulting Real Ghosts Caught On Tape is a stellar set of tunes that touches on soul, punk and straightforward pop-rock on songs like “5678 and ” Complaint Dept.” The change from the previous album is pretty dramatic, but the songs are strong enough to keep long-time fans satisfied, and bring plenty of new ones into the fold. Pomegranates, Laura Stevenson & The Cans and Now Now are also on the bill. Bar Deluxe, 666 S. State, 9 p.m., $5 advance/$8 day of show
