The Walking Dead The fourth season of AMC’s mega-popular zombie series premieres this week, with the return of the villainous Governor, plus the debuts of more fan-favorite characters from the comic book series. Sundays, 9 p.m., AMC; premieres October 13.

Hear

Pet Shop Boys You’ll consider attending because the English duo has one of the greatest pop catalogs of the past 40 years. But don’t discount Electric—one of the year’s most compulsively listenable albums and the primary inspiration for this tour’s raved-about laser show. With Jacques Lu Cont, October 11, 9 p.m., $41-$81, the Joint.

F*cked Up Damian Abraham, grizzly lead singer for the hardcore Canadian outfit, once had a penchant for getting naked and breaking bottles over his head. Those days might be over (he’s a dad now), but we still expect him to deliver a sweaty ass-beating. With Tony Molina, October 16, 8 p.m., $10, Backstage Bar & Billiards.
