Truckfighters at Tremont Music Hall tonight (3/1/12)

TRUCKFIGHTERS There’s something absolutely ridiculous about desert rock, so don’t hold it against Sweden’s Truckfighters that they come from a country with no deserts. Yet this ostensibly southwestern branch of drug rock, driven by fuzzed-beyond-recognition guitar tone and purposefully overblown stoner psychedelia, almost hinges on pure absurdity. How else, in today’s minefield of ironic metal and self-conscious experimentalism, can a hard-hitting rock band ply its trade? If you dig the Eagles of Death Metal but don’t dig the mustaches, this is the show for you. $10-$12. Tremont Music Hall.
