CMJ Timetable: Thursday

Night Kills the Day, "Dive"

6 p..m. DATAROCK. The headliner on this seven-band bill is Spoon, which laces its stripped-down indie-rock with funk and disco, but don't miss Datarock, a vastly entertaining Norwegian dance-rock duo that sings about geeky pursuits such as BMX biking and computer programming. (Blender Theater at Gramercy, 27 E. 23rd St., Manhattan. 212-777-6800.)

7:45 p.m. BENZOS. Think Radiohead with even more experimentation and less of a chill. (Blender Theater at Gramercy, 127 E. 23rd St., Manhattan, 212-777-6800.)

10 p.m. NIGHT KILLS THE DAY. Singer Luke Brian and keyboardist Timothy Falzone of Bayville hammer out Goth-tinged rock with themes of addiction, depression and other psychodramas. (Crash Mansion, 199 Bowery, Manhattan. 212-982-0740.)

10 p.m. EISLEY. The sweet sounds of the DuPree sisters and their rocking brothers are stronger than ever on the recent "Combinations" album. (Fillmore New York at Irving Plaza, 17 Irving Place, Manhattan, 212-777-6800.)

10:30 p.m. ENON. The Go! Team crossed with an electronic-leaning Beck, with more consistently great experiments than both. (HighLine Ballroom, 431 W. 16th St., Manhattan, 212-414-5994.)

Midnight. SIMIAN MOBILE DISCO. Along with pals Justice, Manchester's Simian Mobile Disco are pushing a revival of good time electronic disco. (Music Hall of Williamsburg, 66 N. Sixth St., Brooklyn, 212-260-4700.)
