Whether you think Fart Jar is the best band name in town or the worst—this reporter is as yet undecided—the group is one of Athens’ finest purveyors of noisy, no-holds-barred rock and roll, as evidenced by a pummeling recent SlopFest set. You wouldn’t necessarily know it from listening to last year’s This Is Not a Drill, a home-recorded, eight-song glob of an album that seemed more stoned goof than proper LP. Let’s hope the band’s new record, which it celebrates with a release show Friday at the Caledonia, more accurately reflects its all-enveloping sludgefest of a show. Fellow chaos-causers Apparition, Dead Vibes Ensemble and Backmask share the bill.
