Echoplex

This cavernous space located underneath the Echo is another watershed moment in Echo Park's ongoing gentrification (valet parking, really?), but it's still one of the prime spots in the city to see up and coming bands. Big, dark and loud, the club has hosted Thom Yorke's Atoms for Peace, M.I.A. and a host of hot tickets that include the weekly Check Yo Ponytail night.
